Age 58 - having thigh lift, lipo to flanks and bra line
2017 at 54 years old I finally had lipo to thighs & hips, along with a tummy tuck. I was very pleased with the end result, but I was NOT prepared for the recovery. In my mind I thought I'd be back to work in a week. Mistake! I tried to go back, but it was too much. My legs needed to be up, dangling down from a desk chair was not working at all. So if you do this, PLAN for at LEAST 2 weeks of being home and resting before going back to work. Dr. VanRaalte was pleasant and

Outstanding Doctor and Staff!
My experience with the doctor and the staff was outstanding. They really made me feel comfortable and were incredibly knowledgeable. I was given multiple options and was able to be confident in my decision! Updated on 15 Nov 2022: The healing process after the first month was a breeze. Clothes fit me better than ever and I feel incredible in all types looks. Overall, I love love love my new boobs! They look and feel amazing! My only regret is I didn’t do it sooner. I would choose

I would recommend anyone who is thinking of getting any work done to go see him!
Finally after 20 years of waiting I got my breast augmentation! I chose to get a mini lift with 620cc teardrop gummy implants. The whole staff I worked with were great! From Liz, my nurse Mara and of course Dr. Van Raalte. He answered all of my questions and listened to what my goal was. He went over possible complications multiple times so I could make my decision.I am 7 days post op. I have been off the pain meds since my 2nd day of post op and excited to see the final outcome!

Finally getting my wish boobs!!
Had a consult with Dr. Van Raalte. His entire staff is amazing. Nevee felt uncomfortable or unsure with them and they explained everything in detail, including the risks. I couldn't have found a better doctor and nurses to help! Updated on 18 Apr 2021: Feeling better besides having pressure on the inner/inside part of my breasts. Not sure if I’m just getting more feeling back or if everything is stretching but I plan on calling Monday if it hasn’t gone away by then. Other than

Feeling So Much Better
Dr. Van Raalte had reccomended that I try a few units of botox to the muscle on either side of my jaw to treat a persistent jaw clenching issue. The procedure itself was quick and nearly painless and I had no bruising or swelling afterwards. The Dr. and his staff were masked and appropriate Covid measures were in place which make me feel very comfortable through my appointment. Following treatment my persistent jaw and tooth pain have subsided completely. After months of trying
Great Communicator
Dr Van Raalte was extremely attentive in really listening to my goal/expectations and discussing pros/cons of all options. Felt great about my decision. Procedure was quick and easy. Results were even a bit better than what we expected. Staff was terrific as well, very welcoming, helpful and attentive as well.
I have always had a small chest. I remember it somewhat bothering me in high school and college, but it was more of a passing thought when I’d put on certain clothes, swimsuits, or were around other females that actually had breasts. I always liked the shaped of my boobs and feeling more confident naked rather than in clothes, because the clothes just covered up the little curves that I had. When I got pregnant, my boobs grew some, but only to a full B. After having my two

Fantastic Surgical Staff
I am only about 3 hours post-op from a combined breast augmentation and mastopexy (lift). Obviously I am not sure yet how the final review will look, but I already *excessively* pleased with his surgical staff. Everyone was extremely comforting, pleasant, and welcoming. I was very nervous this morning and the staff completely blew me away with their bedside manner.

Great Bunch of Professionals!!
I am so very impressed with the attention to detail that Dr. Benjamin Van Raalte and his staff provide to each patient. They make you feel like family and take care of your every need. I am so very pleased with my results!! JL
I had an amazing experience!
Loving my new girls! I’m 5 days post op and healing beautifully. Dr Van Raalte and his amazing staff were very kind and supportive. I was well educated about the procedure and risks from the get go and knew exactly what to expect. I have a while to go to see complete results but already feel great. I know that if I continue to follow his instructions the result will be better than expected. I would recommend him to anyone! A+++++++
