Guys, lol. Look no farther. If you’re on the western side of the country, travel. It’ll be worth it. And what’s crazy, is you’ll probably save money by going to the best there is. I’ve been to four or five surgeons/aestheticians before Dr. G so this isn’t my first rodeo. I found him a couple years ago when I wanted my boobs done. He was impressive from the gate— just super easy to get along with and actually gave a damn about getting you where you want to be. After my boobs,
My experience was fine, I'm very happy with the results, however, I wish I had chosen a female surgeon because I didn't love Dr. Gillespie's bedside manner. After the initial consultation and submitting my deposit, it seemed he had little concern about the patient experience. I was very anxious for my surgery and he showed up an hour late with Starbucks and was on the phone talking about golf which felt a bit unprofessional. I understand doctors come from other hospitals,
I had an excellent experience with a BL and tummy tuck no MR with Dr. Gillespie. Excellent relaxed bedside manner, very reassuring and comfortable communication and I had an easy and comfortable recovery. Feel free to message with any questions!!
After losing 100+ pounds through diet and exercise, I felt trapped in my body by saggy skin and constantly reminded of how heavy I was. From the first consultation, Dr. Gillespie listened to how I felt and recommended a lower body lift with FDL, arm lift and breast lift to give me the results I wanted. I'm now 2 months post op and although recovery wasn't a walk in the park, I'm so happy that my body reflects how physically fit I feel inside and what I worked so hard for! Dr.
After having kids and nursing, my boobs were a little sad to say the least. They looked stretched and saggy. I wanted them to just look normal and Dr. Gillespie was so great at getting them to not only look normal but was able to give me my nursing boobs back! They look so good and they look natural like they belong to my body. It’s not obvious that I’ve had a boob job which is what I wanted. I’m so happy with them and Dr. Gillespie was so great to work with. He’s so nice and
Dr. Gillespie has the magic touch! He is so gentle , very thorough and takes the time to listen. He always answers any question I may have ( usual many). My office visits are always amazing and I couldn’t be happier with my results!!
I highly recommend Dr. Gillespie. He is a physician who takes the time to explain a procedure and answer any questions; you will not feel he is rushing you to get to his next patient. He is a competent plastic surgeon who pays close attention to aesthetics. After my surgery to replace my breast implant, both the pain ball and device used to expedite incision healing unfortunately both failed. I called his office and they fit me in to see him the first thing the following morning. Dr.

My Face, Neck and Jawline Look Fantastic!
Thank you to Dr. Gillespie for doing such a great facelift on me.... The change is just amazing and my friends and family all say I look great and many years younger. I have no more saggy neck or jowls like before, and my jawline looks really nice now. It turned out even better than I thought it would. I had the in-office facelift at Dr. Gillespie's office and I highly recommend him. He is an excellent and gifted plastic surgeon. He also made me feel comfortable throughout
Having lost about 150 lbs, I decided it was time for Abdominoplasty and thigh lift procedures. Dr. Gillespie was great with explaining the procedure and letting me know what to expect after my procedure. He was extremely informative, supportive and available when I had questions. He and his staff could not have been better suited for me. I would totally recommend the practice without hesitation. Thanks Dr. Gillespie!!!

If I could give ten stars I would! Dr. John is incredibly knowledgeable and has a very comforting bedside manner. He knew exactly what I wanted to change and explained the process from start to finish. I was very nervous the day of my procedure and he quickly eased my nerves! Post procedure he answered every question I had and 3 weeks post op, I can’t tell you how happy I am with my results! Thank you Dr. John!
