Nelson Castillo, MD

My experience with Dr. Castillo was exceptional - truly outstanding from start to finish! I had my 20-year-old saline breast implants replaced with silicone, underwent scar revision, and had a small area of liposuction. During my consultation, Dr. Castillo spent a full hour thoroughly reviewing my medical and surgical history and walking me through every option in great detail. He explained the best and recommended techniques, options, pros and cons, and answered all of my questions with patience and care. I never felt rushed—he gave me his full undivided attention.
His staff was equally impressive: polite, easy to work with, and highly responsive throughout the quoting and scheduling process. On the day of surgery, Dr. Castillo demonstrated the same meticulous approach, carefully marking, planning, and contemplating every angle, placement, and approach. His thoughtful consideration made it clear that he takes immense pride in his work and has the eye of a true artist.
Post-surgery, his follow-up care was unmatched. He checked in daily through calls and emails, offered clear instructions, and made himself available to answer any questions I had. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about his patients’ well-being and is committed to achieving the best possible results. I’m currently two weeks post-op and my results are absolute perfection! I had little to no bruising and my scars are flat, symmetrical, and barely visible.
Dr. Castillo is not only a skilled surgeon, but also personable, charismatic, funny, and professional. I will absolutely return to him for any future procedures and highly recommend him to anyone considering plastic surgery!

I have thought about doing this for myself for such a long time that I took choosing a surgeon very seriously. I am very picky and Dr. Castillo has truly exceeded my expectations during every step of my breast augmentation. I knew he was a very skilled surgeon before meeting him but he’s also understanding, compassionate and truly cares. ?

I’m only 2 weeks post-op and I’m already in love with my results, he gave me exactly what I asked for. I’ve shown multiple friends and they have all asked who my surgeon is. The surgery itself was also easier than I could have imagined, thanks to his skill. Dr. Castillo made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process and I’m so grateful I found him. Highly recommend, the 5 star reviews are well deserved!

After losing a significant amount of weight I was left with a lot of extra skin and deflated breasts which were both impeding on my self confidence.

After extensive research and several consults I found Dr. Castillo! I immediately knew that I found my surgeon! I left my consult with full confidence in his skill and ability to provide my desired results.

Dr. Castillo performed an extended TT, mons lift, breast lift with implants. He FAR exceeded my expectations creating a body I never in my wildest dreams imagined I could have.

You will truly not find a more involved and caring surgeon. Dr.Castillo always took his time with me, never made me feel rushed, and regularly checked in after my surgery.

I will forever be for grateful to Dr.Castillo for the care he provided me before and after my surgery. And most of all for his talented surgical skills that truly changed my life.

I recently had breast implant removal along with a breast reduction and lift. It is hard to put into words how happy I am with the results, but my life is 100 times better since surgery. Dr. Castillo listened to all my concerns and wishes for the reduction and the sizing I wanted to be when finished. I went from an F to a small B and it has changed my life.

Dr. Nelson checked in on me for months prior to surgery and every week after surgery. He is extremely meticulous and talented. Over and over, I would recommend him!

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Castillo! From the consultation to post-op care. He’s always available to answer any questions. I was well informed about what to do before surgery and after. He pays attention to details. I feel more confident and love my new look! If you’re considering breast augmentation, I highly recommend Dr. Castillo

I recently had breast explant with lift, fat grafting/liposuction 360 procedure performed by Dr. Castillo. During my consultation with Dr. Castillo, I knew right away I could completely trust him. I decided to look no further and that was the best decision I have made! From my consultation to my pre-op, surgery, and recovery, he was very professional, informative, caring, attentive, and responsive to all my questions. He really took his time not only to listen and address all my questions/concerns, but also walk me through the procedure in details and establish realistic expectations. From the day I was discharged until now, Dr. Castillo checks in regularly to make sure everything is going smooth with my recovery. Dr. Castillo and his office staff truly care about patients and provide an exceptional care. I am coming up on 7 weeks post-op and I am extremely satisfied with the results since they exceeded my expectations!

I highly recommend Dr. Castillo to anyone considering plastic surgery since his expertise, experience, and sincere care for his patients makes him one of the BEST!

I recently had breast augmentation surgery with Dr. Castillo, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, it was clear that Dr. Castillo is not only highly skilled but also truly cares about his patients. He took the time to listen to my goals and concerns, and he developed a customized plan that was specifically tailored to my body and needs. It’s rare to find a surgeon who’s such a great listener and genuinely dedicated to achieving the best possible results for each patient.

Before the surgery, Dr. Castillo patiently answered all of my questions. He never rushed me and made sure I fully understood every step of the process. It was clear that his priority was making me feel comfortable and informed, which is something I really appreciated. Unlike some surgeons, he didn’t push me in any direction—I always felt like he was giving me honest advice and supporting me in making the decision that was right for me.

The surgery itself went seamlessly, and recovery was much better than I expected. I didn’t feel nauseous or overly uncomfortable, and the recovery experience was overall very positive. Dr. Castillo’s aftercare was exceptional—he followed up with me every day, either through email or over the phone, to check on my progress and address any concerns.

I am absolutely thrilled with my results. The results far exceeded my expectations, and I’m so happy with the decision I made to choose Dr. Castillo. His attention to detail, genuine care for his patients, and dedication to excellence made all the difference.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Castillo to anyone considering surgery. He is truly the best in the field, and I will forever be grateful for his expertise and the positive impact he provided.

Thank you Dr. Castillo and Team!!! I am at almost four months past my breast reduction and lift procedures with Dr. Castillo, and the healing and results have been exceptional and the entire experience was wonderful. This was the first cosmetic procedure I’ve ever had, so I was worried about the physical (and mental) toll that it would take on me. Dr. Castillo and his staff were professional and very patient with me before, during, and after the procedures, so that my worries were tremendously diminished. Dr. Castillo listened to my concerns and my desired outcomes, then we came up with a plan that we were both comfortable with...And with his attention to detail, the results exceeded our expectations!!!! The consistent post-op calls and follow-up appointments were an appreciated and comforting part of the process as well.

The results were both subtle and dramatic at the same time. Now, I can do everyday things like getting dressed, working out, going the beach without limitations and without being self-conscious. And even though I didn’t have to buy new clothes, all of the clothes I have now fit much better, and now when I buy new clothes, I get what I WANT to wear versus what I HAVE to settle for wearing. The surgery was for me, and I am thrilled for myself; but I am also happy that my friends and family can tell something is “different” but can’t quite figure out what it is, other than figuring that I’ve “lost some weight,” and that I look like great!

Dr. Castillo was the perfect blend of compassion, seriousness, lightheartedness, and perceptiveness…and I definitely plan to go back to him for future procedures.

There are no words to describe my experience with Dr Castillo at The Nelson Center. This was my second procedure with Dr Castillo ( Tummy Tuck /muscle repair and lipo). From the very first consultation, I felt comfortable and understood. Dr. Castillo took the time to listen to my concerns and goals, and patiently explained the entire procedure, including potential risks and recovery expectations. Dr Castillo is so detail oriented and so precise- I knew I would love the results.

The surgery itself was a success beyond my wildest dreams. My tummy tuck with muscle repair and lipo have given me back my confidence and a newfound sense of self-worth. The results are natural, beautiful, and the recovery process was smoother than I anticipated.

Dr Castillo's dedication to patient care is evident in every interaction. After the procedure, Dr Castillo consistently checked on me to make sure I was ok- He was there in those moments after surgery, when it can seem scary- he was right there to reassure me. What was also unique about this experience is how he interacted with my spouse. A Tummy Tuck is a major surgery, and throughout my recovery, my husband knew how to take care of me. Dr Castillo was in consistent communication with my husband with tips and ways to make my recover as smooth as possible. Also whats so amazing about The Nelson Center is the entire staff at the practice is incredibly kind, supportive, and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Castillo to anyone considering plastic surgery. You're in the best possible hands and you will love the way you look. Forever grateful.

Dr. Castillo has been exceptional throughout my breast augmentation journey. I previously had corrective surgery for my pectus excavatum, he took the time to review my prior surgery notes, had me get approval from my previous surgeon, and crafted a customized plan to address my unique needs. During the consultation, he went above and beyond, genuinely getting to know my husband and me. Dr. Castillo explains everything with clarity, ensuring confidence every step of the way. After my surgery, he called daily during the first week and continued to monitor my recovery through emails and follow-ups. His professionalism, compassion, and surgical expertise are unparalleled, and I absolutely love my results. Additionally, his office staff is wonderful—always friendly, attentive, and quick to respond to calls and emails.
