My breasts look amazing and it has been 6 months since my surgery

My experience with this doctor was amazing! From the start of my consultation until my follow up appointments after my breast reduction surgery. he made me feel very comfortable the entire process. Answering all my questions and provided his own information regarding the surgery. Would 100 % recommend him to anyone considering a reduction. My breast look amazing and it has been 6months since my surgery ! Scars are disappearing as well. No complaints at all regarding this surgeon. My only regret is not doing it sooner! 10/10!

My neck and back pain is gone

I would like to thank Dr Driscoll..his amazing office staff and all the wonderful nurses at Newton Wellesley..I was very anxious as a friend of mine had surgery at Mass General and it turned out to be a nightmare...I had my appointment with Dr Driscol and he answered every question to the best of his knowledge.. we then set up an appointment 10 days before surgery and it was canceled for an emergency..which is understandable. He offered me a Saturday morning appointment which I could not take. The women in his office did the best they could to answer all my questions. Dr Driscoll made it a point to come into surgery early so we could talk...I was in the best hands...he took his time and did a great job. My neck and back pain is gone...amazing and I feel great....I have not taken any pain meds...and it's only 4 days...his bedside manner was very caring and he did check on me..also when I got home Newton Wellesley checked on me and also his office...I would recommend him for your surgery...I wish I would have done it 20 years ago...Thanks Again Dianne Raymondi

Amazing experience with Extended TT and lipo

Dr. Daniel Driscoll and his staff are amazing. After losing weight (around 80 pounds) with diet and exercise, I was left with so much excess skin and stretch marks on my abdomen, and had strange fat deposits on my back. I went to Dr. Driscoll by recommendation of a friend who works as RXAesthetics in Newton - an awesome med Spa which which Dr. Driscoll is affiliated. From consultation to pre-op, post-op care and continued follow-up, the entire experience has been amazing. I followed post-op instructions to the letter, and my scar (hip to hip) is so thin, any questions I had for the office were answered immediately via phone or with a call back from Dr. Driscoll himself. Also getting a lymph drainage treatment at RXAesthetics in Newton (it’s a suction/massage technique that decreases swelling - and it’s a LIFE CHANGER). I have full confidence in Dr. Driscoll and his staff...AND the nursing staff at Newton Wellesley hospital (I stayed overnight) was phenomenal. Will post more pics later...currently 9 weeks post-op with minimal swelling and back to running/lifting/everything! Thank you Dr. Driscoll!!!!

Breast Reconstruction

Goes the extra mile for his patients

I had a bilateral nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction, and the surgeon doing the mastectomy recommended Dr. Driscoll to handle the reconstruction. I am so glad she did! Dr. Driscoll and I talked through all my options and chose the best one for me. When there was a blood supply problem, he intervened quickly and corrected it with a revision. When I was concerned I might be developing an infection, he drove 45 minutes out of his way to see me and, thankfully, everything was all right. He was a bit quiet when I first met him, but I quickly discovered that he's kind, reassuring, and has a great sense of humor about things. He has impressive credentials and I trust him.

Couldn't be happier ! I had the best experience

Dr Driscoll and his team went above and beyond to make this a great experience and I couldn't be happier! He did an abdominalplasty which included a FDL tummy tuck, but and thigh lift. Everything from the first consults, pre op appointments, to the post op appointments he made sure I was comfortable and answered all my questions. I was very confident from the moment I met him that I was in great hands. I'm now 4 weeks post op feeling amazing and so happy with the results. I have the body I always wanted and I have dr Driscoll to thank for that. I highly recommend him for plastic surgery and will be going back to him for other procedures!

Panniculectomy

Worth it! Arm lift, Medial Thigh Lift, Panniculectomy; Boston, MA

I have been in the OR with Dr. Driscoll twice for surgery following massive weight loss. I had three procedures done the first time and two the second. It would be difficult to find another plastic surgeon with his balance of skill, caring, compassion and willingness to go the extra mile for his patients. His office and nursing staff are wonderful to work with, accommodating and very caring. I was very nervous when I walked in for my initial consultation but his professional demeanor and attentiveness to my questions and concerns immediately put me at ease. I presented with some significant challenges, had zero complications and am very happy with my outcomes. I would highly recommend Dr. Driscoll to anyone considering plastic surgery!

Amazing experience. Could not be happier

I initially scheduled an appt with dr driscoll after seeing him listed in Boston magazine as one of the best plastic surgeon in Boston. I cannot say enough great things about dr Driscoll. I am a 39 year old female who went in seeking information about having breast reduction. He was very knowledgeable during the initial consultation and made me feel at ease with my decision Of moving forward with my upcoming surgery. Leading into the surgery I was very well informed, the staff was very organized and always available to answer any questions along the way. You cannot go wrong with choosing dr Driscoll to perform your surgery. I went from a 34h to a 34c, had no complications and my breasts look better than they ever did. I could not be happier with my outcome. The only thing I wished is that I did this sooner. Don't even consider another doctor. If you're considering dr Driscoll, stop here and make the call. You will not be disappointed. He is top notch and has certainly earned his Best of Boston status.

Breast Reduction After 2 Pregnancies and Breastfeeding - Newton, MA

Having this reduction was the BEST decision I have ever made for myself. I wanted one for years, but it was important to me that I have my children first. Once I did that, I had my reduction and I've never felt better! My surgery was so much easier than I had anticipated and my recovery was a breeze. I was back to normal activities within a week, exercising and running at 4 weeks, and got the OK to do everything at 6 weeks. I went from a 36DDD to a 38B.

Don't hesitate, Dr Driscoll is the right choice - Newton, MA

My experience with Plastic Surgical Assoc and Dr Driscoll couldn’t have gone better. Dr Driscoll is an excellent listener. He listens to a patient’s needs and devises a plan around those needs and desires. Giselle and the whole staff are easy and accommodating to work with. You can see a true caring nature in all their personalities which I think makes the difference. Dr Driscoll is experienced and skilled which you can see in his surgery results and how he handles his patients. I’m 51 and underwent a breast augmentation replacing implants I have had for 26 yrs, a mastoplexy to give me a lift, upper eyelid blepharoplasty, and Kybella to remove fat deposits under my chin. I was able to have it all done at once. I was pleased with my first breast augmentation 26 yrs ago but Dr Driscoll has given me an even better shape at age 51, I feel great! My eyes look fantastic now. I no longer look in the mirror and see droopy hooded eyelids. My eyes look young and refreshed and, best of all, nobody knows I had surgery and there are no scars. I was skeptical about the Kybella but that, too, has worked wonderfully. It’s been five weeks and I can still feel it tightening. There is definitely a visible improvement. Overall, I can’t say enough about my experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dr Driscoll and his staff highly and I won’t hesitate to go back for any further treatments down the line.

68-year Old Tired of Shirts Not Fitting - Newton, MA

I was so tired of buying shirts and jerseys a size or two larger just to fit my arms. I had lost quite a bit of weight years ago and was left with a large amount of drooping skin which didn't fit into most shirts or jerseys that would normally have fit me. And, not to even mention, trying to find a dress with sleeves to fit!!! Wearing a sleeveless shirt was never even a thought. After a diagnose of not having lymphadema, I decided to consult with a doctor who was highly referred to me. Dr. Daniel Driscoll is most respected by his colleagues. This, I read in "Boston Magazine" after my first consultation with him. He understood how I felt about my arms. He also noted that I had a lot of extra skin on my abdomen that had created extremely painful rashes. The rashes had been treated with several types of prescription ointments with no results for reducing the rashes. After having a long and detailed consultation with Dr. Driscoll, I decided to have my arms and my abdomen done. It was decided that I could have both done at the same time in the hospital. Dr. Driscoll is amazing. He was able to answer all the questions I had. He is a truly amazing surgeon. I would have to include artist to his surgery skills. He was able to create such a wonderful new look to my arms and my abdomen which has given me new confidence that I haven't felt for years. Before I review the actual surgery, I must mention that Dr. Driscoll's office is staffed by the most incredible people. My direct communication with his assistant, Giselle, was the best. She took time with me on the phone when I had any administrative questions and in general was the perfect liaison in Dr. Driscoll's office. His office nurses were excellent and very accommodating in helping me before and after surgery in his office. Then came the day of the surgery! Of course I was a little nervous. In comes Dr. Driscoll with a big smile to greet me and my husband. After drawing lines on my body as to where he would cut, he answered any last minute questions we had. Then his team, and I mean all of them, came in to introduce themselves. I've had a number of surgeries, and this was a first. His nurses were great. I mentioned that I really feared the mask for anesthesia and was told that you really need to take a breath while it is adjusted on your face. So, I thought, ok, I'll have to see that mask coming at me. Then I was asked if I had any other questions or comments. I said no......and then I woke up in recovery. My husband said that after the nurse asked me if I had anything else, I started talking crazy. Apparently, I was given something to keep me from realizing what was then going on!! I believe the surgery lasted about 4 hours and that was for my arms and my abdomen. Dr. Driscoll had discussed with me all the details of what might occur during surgery. Being in the senior age, I knew the challenges that I might face. Well, the surgery went perfectly normal according to what Dr. Driscoll told my waiting husband. After spending the night at the hospital, I went home with 4 drains. One on each arm and two for my abdomen. I was able to sleep in bed. My husband helped me with the drains the first night. I had a visiting nurse come every other day for 10 days who helped kept an eye on my wounds to be sure there was no infection. Three days after surgery, I had an appointment with Dr. Driscoll. He removed stitches, checked all his work. His nurse helped me with a new bolero type compression vest to wear for my arms which I wore for four weeks and a binder for my abdomen that I wore for six weeks. I cannot believe how this surgery has helped me to feel so much more energetic. I've even lost another ten pounds!! It doesn't matter your age, do what feels good for you! If you need any type of plastic surgery, see Dr. Daniel Driscoll. He and his whole team are the very best. The treatment before, during and after surgery is top shelf. My arms look fantastic! There are scars, but not overwhelmingly noticeable. My abdomen is so flat that I would have to work 20 hours a day doing sit-ups to accomplish what Dr. Driscoll has done. Tomorrow is my last appointment with Dr. Driscoll and his wonderful team! I thought this would be a good time to give praise where praise is due. I'm hoping Dr. Driscoll will attach my before and after pictures below. This is one very happy patient!!!!
