Patient and Professional Dr. and Staff - Minneapolis, MN

Dr. G and his staff made my surgery experience a wonderful one! I had been considering breast augmentation for years but really wanted a natural looking implant. He and the nurses were so patient and attentive to my needs and concerns. They even allowed me to come in and re-size a few times before my surgery date to be certain I would get the result I wanted. The surgery was quick and easy, I was back to a modified work schedule at 5 days! Their professionalism and caring bedside manner is outstanding and I would highly recommend Dr. G.

He has wonderful credentials. He gave me results straight off the table that I have never seen from all the pics I looked at and you tube videos I watched. I braced myself to see something horrific but nope! no swelling no bruising no bleeding just clean moisturized breast!

Dr. G. & his staff were amazing from the beginning! His nurse was so informative & supportive throughout the consultation. Dr. G. Was thorough with all aspects of the procedure & very supportive as well. I never felt pressured in the consultation & loved their enthusiasm for this big step for me (even though they see it every day). They love what they do! I'm so happy I chose Dr. G. and his team. It was a positive experience with amazing results! --Also I have called with questions post surgery & I am always put through to nurse immediately. They care about their patients!

The staff as well as Dr. made me feel very comfortable and relaxed, this made it easier to ask all the questions I wanted answered along with those that I did not think about myself but they brought up. They take the time to discuss options and make sure you have chosen the right thing for you.

Breast Implants

Dr. was very helpful, informative, and understanding when I was deciding whether to get implants or not. During my surgery and post-care, he has been very professional and has always listened to my concerns. I think the hardest part for me was getting past the stigma of plastic surgery--he was helpful by providing facts.

No Regrets! - Minneapolis, MN

He seemed the most qualified and I was very comfortable with his staff as well. I am a happily married woman in my early 40's. After having 3 children and nursing them all I decided I wanted to do something for myself. I started researching everything I could about breast augmentation. After looking at over 700 before and after pictures of woman on the internet I choose 3 doctors to make appts with. The first doctor, (NOT DR. GERVAIS), was extremely rude, pompass, and self absorbed. He looked at the 2 photos I had brought, (showing him my desired look after surgery) and he told me my expectations were not realistic, He was very insulting about it to make matters worse. My husband had come with me and was horrified by the whole experience. I decided to keep the other 2 appts I had scheduled with other doctors. In the end, it was obvious that Dr. Gervais was the one to do my surgery. He looked at my 2 photos and told me that they were very realistic and he was very certain he could give me the look I wanted. He was kind, professional, patient, and pleasantly confident. His staff was wonderful too. I later found numerous people that had used Dr. Gervais as well and were all very happy. In the end, I cannot tell you how wonderful I look and feel. Dr. Gervais gave me just what I wanted. I would not change a thing! Oh, and my husband thanks him too! :):) I hope by writing this I can save other woman from all the hassle and research that I had to go through to find such a wonderful doctor. I still wake up each morning thankful that I had the guts to have the surgery. God bless those of you reading this and to you Dr. Gervais for the beautiful work that you do!

Nipple Surgery

Dr. Gervais did an amazing job on my inverted-nipple surgery. The surgery itself was quick and simple and the healing process was virtually painless! I was completely healed in 2 months tops with NO scarring at all. I couldn't be happier with my results. Dr. Gervais asked me exactly what I wanted and he delivered it well. The staff is truly wonderful. I would recommend Dr. Gervais to all my friends and family. You truly won't regret it!

All I have to say is... I don't know why I waited so long. Best decision I have ever made. I feel like a girl again! I had a lift and augmentation, and I feel so happy and confident again. I had nursed three children and it really took a toll on my breasts. Dr. Gervais really knows what he is doing, he described what exactly would happen as I was healing. I am only one month post op and they are the prettiest breasts in America. I love Dr. G and his staff. Best doctor Best clinic hands down! And the anesthesiologist was the best too! I have no regrets except that I didn't do it sooner. Thank you Minneapolis plastic surgery and sweet Sarah too (the patient coordinator who is so so sweet).

Breast Augmentation

When I initially decided to get surgery I consulted with a couple different plastic surgeons. Dr. Gervais and his staff were the only ones that made me feel comfortable. Dr. Gervais was able to answer all of my questions honestly and completely. I appreciated that he gave his opinion in the size that I should get. Everyone there is just great and so friendly. It's nice to be surrounded by people like the ones at Mpls Plastic Surgery when going through such a personal event.

Extremely Satisified - Minneapolis, MN

Dr. Garvais and his staff were incredibly friendly and professional. The consultation was very informative and easy to schedule. On the day of my surgery, it was like a well-oiled machine. Everyone had a job and did it very efficiently. I normally have problems with anesthesia (feeling sick) and had NONE with this procedure. My follow up care has so far been great too. I'd definitely refer my friends/family to Dr. Garvais - and I'd definitely go back if I wanted more procedures. Also, my results are amazing. My only regret is not doing it sooner!

Dr. G and his staff were amazing through the entire process from beginning to end. He answered all of my questions and the nurses let me go back twice to resize when I felt unsure of what I wanted. (Which turned out to be what they recommended in the first place!)

Dr. Gervais and his staff were extremely helpful during the process of my very first surgery. They took the time to answer all of my questions without making me feel rushed or unimportant. They also helped greatly in the decision-making process and the follow-up care. Nurse Jill even called me from her home on the evening of my surgery to make sure I was doing well!

Peace of Mind is Priceless - Minneapolis, MN

Posted by

After researching many Twin Cities plastic surgeons and consulting in person with the ones that made the short list, I found one of them stood out: Dr. Gervais. Not only did he have more experience than the others, he had the best before-and-after pictures I had seen, and lots of them. Placing my confidence in Dr. Gervais turned out to be an excellent decision. Going in to each of my surgeries with reasonable expectations, the results exceeded what I had imagined I would look like every time. How deeply impressed I am by his technical skills and dedication to achieving optimal results cannot be overstated. I consider myself fortunate to have found Dr. Gervais mainly because the peace of mind he brings me is priceless. I know that with him all of my investments in the process of surgery will be worthwhile.
