“Happy Mommy - Latham, NY”

"For years I have joked about having a "mommy makeover" and then one day decided to bite the bullet and make a consultation appointment. I looked online at all of the before and after pictures posted by area surgeons. In my opinion, Dr.DeLuca's photos were the best by far. Next, I searched to find as much information as possible about Dr.DeLuca. My husband went with me to the consultation and we both felt very comfortable after meeting him. We asked many questions and even emailed more after our meeting. All were answered well and promptly. I've found the staff to be every bit as professional and helpful as Dr.DeLuca. I am very happy with my decision to have a mommy makeover and the decision I made to use DeLuca Plastic Surgery!"

“Incredibly Happy with Dr. and Staff - Latham, NY”

"After considering breast augmentation pretty much my whole life, I finally decided to make an appointment for a consultation. I did a Google search and found several local surgeons. I looked at what seemed like a million before and after photos, and noticed a huge difference in Dr. DeLuca's breast augmentation photos compared to the others and knew I had to make an appointment with him. From the first phone call, I knew I was making the right choice. Dr. DeLuca and his staff are extremely professional and make you feel very comfortable. I was nervous about my implants being too big, as I have a small frame and really just wanted a natural look- and Dr. DeLuca assured me they would fit my body type just fine. The whole process from consultation to surgery and recovery went by so quick and very smoothly. I am ecstatic with how my implants look, I could not have asked for a better size, shape, and overall look. I have never felt so confident and I would do it again in a heartbeat, thanks to Dr. DeLuca!"

“Excellent Dr - Latham, NY”

"I found Dr. DeLuca and his staff to be very professional and friendly. I am very happy with the results of my surgery as well as the responsiveness of Dr. DeLuca and his staff to all my questions and concerns both pre and post operatively. I am one to ask a lot of questions. Most doctor offices would not have the time to address every question, but this was not the case with Dr. DeLuca or his staff. If I called to speak to his nurse I would either get her instantly or she'd call me right back. It was the same with emails; often times as soon as I sent the email I would get an immediate response. I always felt like his staff was there for me and I never felt like I was being annoying with all my questions and certainly did not feel like another patient who was forgotten about. Also, If I had an appointment I was taken in almost instantly and never had to wait long to be seen. I did a lot of research on my particular procedure, so when I was in the process of chosing a plastic surgeon I was prepared with questions and also knew generally what was necessary to accomoplish the results I wanted. After meeting with Dr. DeLuca I knew he was the right person for the job. He did not try to talk me into having additional or unecessary procedures. He is up on the current methods of performing plastic surgery to get long lasting results (and in my case avoid unecessary incisions). If considering a plastic surgeon I definitely suggest meeting with Dr. DeLuca first. You won't be disappointed."

“Wonderful Surgeon - Latham, NY”

"Dr. DeLuca is fantastic! I had a rhinoplasty about 5 months ago. I love my new nose. It does not look like I had a nose job, it's MINE but more feminine! He removed the bump on the bridge. It now points slightly upward for that feminine touch. He is very concerned with all questions and does not rush you with anything. Little does he know I plan on coming back for a breast augmentation!"

“Strongly Recommending Talented Doctor - Latham, NY ”

"I was absolutely positive in my decision to have breast augmentation surgery but thought choosing a doctor would be the difficult part. I needed someone highly experienced with a track record of great successes to put any worries I had to rest. Dr. DeLuca was strongly recommended stating he did truly beautiful work. Exactly what I was looking for! I can now attest not only to his beautiful work (I am so very happy with the results), but also to Dr. DeLuca's professional conduct, non-judgemental demeanor, as well as his dedication to his client's satisfaction. His pride was best demonstrated in his reaction to his work at my post-surgical appointment. I made two excellent decisions this year: to have the surgery, and selecting the best doctor to perform it. I would proudly recommend Dr. DeLuca to family and friends."

“Worth the Distance - Latham, NY”

"After nursing three children and changes in body weight, I was left with very small, saggy breasts. I felt now was the time to enhance my breasts (which I have wanted to do for 22 years as I have always been on the small side). The question was which surgeon. After several consultations with different surgeons, I felt Dr. DeLuca was the best surgeon for me. Not only did he take the time to explain everything, but I never felt rushed. Once I had decided this was the right decision for me he was able to schedule my procedure quickly. His staff is remarkable. Very kind, nonjudgemental, and effecient. After the surgery (which had a surprisingly quick and easy healing time)Dr. DeLuca was always available for any questions/concerns. I actually came in before my next scheduled appointment because of a concern. Not only did he address my concern, but he didn't make me feel silly for my questions. I now fill out my bathing suits and other clothes nicely. I would highly recommend Dr. DeLuca and his staff. In fact, I travelled 60 miles each way to take advantage of his great skill and service."
