Worth the Distance - Latham, NY
Posted by Berkshire County
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.
Happy Mommy - Latham, NY
Posted by Happy Mommy...
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!

They deserve FIVE Stars . This is an outstanding office with an outstanding doctor. I heard of Dr. DeLuca through reference. I started the consultation process with many different doctors from Long Island to Albany, NY. The moment I met Dr. DeLuca, and staff, I knew they were the ones who I wanted to do my procedures. Dr. DeLuca was the only doctor who made me feel completely comfortable and confident with my recent decisions. During the process I did not encounter one con, only pros. I have never been more satisfied with my mind, body, and soul.

I came across a very confident looking physician on this site and said "he is the one" (silly right to go based upon a photo). But, I have to say my gut instincts were right though, as soon as you walk into his office his staff treat you with respect and make you feel comfortable. And when you meet him its even more evident that he is a man who knows what he is doing and will do it right, he'll be honest with you and the results you'll achieve and he takes pride in his work. During my consultations all my questions and concerns were answered honestly and knowledgeable. In my opinion this man has magical hands and does a wonderful service to all his patients and I will refer anyone to him for any procedure. During the recovery process he and his staff are always there to answer any questions or concerns for you. Had I known the procedure was not going to be as bad as I had always worried about I would have done this way sooner. AWESOME JOB DR. D!
Incredibly Happy with Dr. and Staff - Latham, NY
Posted by KRene
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
Posted by Shanbuh
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
Posted by Jill B
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.

After Having 2 Kids I Knew I Wanted Plastic Surgery - Latham, NY
Posted by lady7
I never really thought I would get plastic surgery but after having my two kids it was something I was secretly wishing for. I was nervous and anxious about the whole process that I wasn't sure I would really go through with it.Once I met with Dr DeLuca all my questions were answered and I felt confident to go through with breast augmentation. He is very professional, confident and very easy to talk to about any concerns. He knew what would work best for my body and I was able to fully trust his decisions and I am so glad I did! His office staff are wonderful and the staff that work with him for surgery are so kind and reassuring! I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would recommend him to anyone!! And my results?? BEAUTIFUL!! Thanks Dr. DeLuca!!

My sister and I both had breast lifts and implants done by Dr. DeLuca and are extremely satisfied with our results. The Dr. was very informative before and after the procedure, answered any questions or concerns we had in great detail, and the end result was amazing. We are so glad we chose him. He was easy to talk to, made us feel very comfortable and confident being under his care. Anyone contemplating using another plastic surgeon should look no further. Trust us, you will be happy with your results as we are!

My experience was amazing from the start. I requested info over the internet and the receptionist called me literally 15 min after I sent the request. She answered all the questions I had and got me right in for an appointment to see Dr. Deluca. Meeting with him we were on the same page about everything I knew what I wanted but I wanted to hear it coming from him. I asked Dr. Deluca his opinion and he was dead on what I wanted. Dr. Deluca made me feel comfortable and he answered any of my questions. I most definitely recommend Dr. Deluca to anyone.

From my initial consultation to my post-op appointments, I have only had positive experiences with Dr. Deluca and his staff. Wait times were never more than a few minutes. Everyone made me feel comforable and were patient in answering all my questions- I never felt rushed. My tummy tuck and liposuction went better than I ever expected. I was surprised to see I had no bruising at all! Swelling and pain were minimal and I am healing quickly. I am so happy with my results and so thankful that I chose Dr. Deluca!

Amazing Job - Albany, NY

Everything was more than what I expected. Amazing job I made an appt. with Dr. Deluca because he came highly recommended from other women I spoke to that had the surgery. I told him I wanted a "natural look", he made me feel completely comfortable. His office is great, they answered any questions i had. They also called in to check on me. Two months later and i look/feel amazing. I'm extremely happy that i went through with the surgery and had Dr. Deluca as a doctor. I had a wonderful experience, I recommend everyone to go to Dr.Deluca.
Dr. Deluca is the Only Plastic Surgeon I Would Recommend! - Latham, NY
Posted by AmandaBD
I interviewed 4 plastic surgeons prior to choosing Dr. Deluca for my breast augmentation. He is the ONLY surgeon who made me feel comfortable about the procedure I was choosing to get done. He was extremely professional but personable during the entire process. He walked me through the entire process and made sure I was fully educated before scheduling my surgery. As someone who has had multiple consultations, both in the Albany, NY area and outside, I would 100% recommend Dr. Deluca. My breasts look completely natural and the outcome of the surgery was better than I could have ever expected.

I exhaustively researched plastic surgeons online and was willing to travel to NYC and Boston to get the best possible care. I assumed that I would find the most high-quality plastic surgeon in a major metropolitan area. After doing a lot of research online, I was surprised to find that the surgeon who appeared to be the very best, was right here in the capital region of upstate NY. Dr DeLuca is a true artist. When I look at his before and after photos, as compared to other surgeons, he doesn't just perform the surgery and put things where they should go. He really pays attention to detail and the best possible final result for his patients. He is incredibly professional and I think truly takes pride in his work and doing the very best for each of us. I am not surprised that people travel from far away to see him - if I ever needed or wanted anything done in the future I would not want to see anyone else. Dr DeLuca and his team have been very responsive every step of the way, the surgical secretary and the nurse were always available to answer all of my questions and help me to feel comfortable. The nurse, Brianne (I hope I am spelling that right) is especially awesome.
Thank You - Albany, NY

Dr. DeLuca and staff were wonderful. The surgery and recovery were exactly as described (more uncomfortable than pain). Dr. DeLuca knew exactly what I wanted and what would look best for me and delivered on both.

Worth It! - Albany, NY
Posted by Crayon
I had visited several Drs to see what needed to be done to put my face back "in balance", but Dr DeLuca impressed me with how carefully he listened to my problem and the amount of time he spent with me. He knew exactly what needed to be done even though I didn't, but never pushed me to have more done than I was comfortable with. And the whole experience was easier than I had anticipated. I am thrilled with the results. It is natural looking to the point that I don't believe most people know exactly why it is that I look better but they keep telling me that I do. I would highly recommend consulting with Dr DeLuca before going anywhere else.

I chose Dr. Deluca after an immense amount of online research and after reading other positive reviews, felt confident that he was my guy. He is extremely professional, incredibly kind and gentle, and took all the embarrassment out of the pre-op awkwardness. I am extremely private in nature and very independent and he normalized my strange circumstances (ie: having a BA without a single loved one with me) while carefully paying attention to what I was hoping to see as the outcome. I would highly recommend anyone considering breast augmentation to check out Dr. Deluca. He's fabulous!

Internet Research. I did quite a bit of research on plastic surgeons in the area before deciding to consult with Dr. Deluca. After our initial consultation I was pleasantly surprised with his professionalism and sincere interest in my desired result. I appreciated the time he spent helping me to understand the procedure in detail because it assured me as a patient that he was genuinely concerned in my personal comfort throughout the entire process. He and his staff were readily available post-op to address any questions I had while healing. Now 4 months post-op, I am so impressed with the natural appearance of my breasts and overall results that I gladly recommend him to anyone considering having a procedure done. Thank you Dr. Deluca, you have provided me with exactly what I was hoping for!

I found out about him when I was younger when I went to my primary and we discussed to correct my issue. She gave me two surgeons to go to at the time, Dr. DeLuca and Dr. Fox. When I had my consultation with Dr. Fox I didn't like what she had in mind for my procedure, so keeping my options open I went and saw Dr. DeLuca and I liked his method better. When I had enough money saved up, I decided to see him again and to see what to I had to do to make this all happen. I don't have any before pictures due to I was insecure, but the office does have them and I am more than willing to show off my before and after's.

Recommended by two of my friends that also chose Dr. Deluca. If your looking for the best look no further than Dr. Deluca!!! I had my breast augmentation by him 3/8/13 at St.Peter's Surgery Center which is state of the art!!!! From his bedside manner which is impeccable to his office staff he is simply the best. I am only 1 day post-op and feeling great, so far I am very pleased with my results and know it will get better over time. Dr. Deluca always made me feel very comfortable from Day 1, he is honest about which sizing would be best suited to your body frame. His professionalism is unmatched, he is the only surgeon for me!!!! Thanks Dr. D for a wonderful experience so far!

When shopping for a plastic surgeon, I looked for rave, personal reviews from people I know and trust. I do NOT bargain hunt for plastic surgeons! I'm glad I went with Dr. DeLuca. He has a terrific sense of humor, yet he's very professional. I felt like he genuinely wanted me to look beautiful and he was there to help me with my goals. He's not big on details unless you ask, and my advice is to ask. But competence? Expect the highest level of expertise and competence...this doctor is truly gifted.
