Scar removal

Dr Goodkind was excellent. The whole experience was compassionate and professional. He treated me like I was his son as he listened to what I wanted and then worked with me to make it happen I couldn’t be happier with my results.

I Feel Blessed! I Am 52 Years Old and Look 30 Years Old Thanks to Dr. Goodkind! - Branford, CT

I decided to have a face lift, neck lift, nose correction and have my upper and lower eyeslids done with Dr. Goodkind. I was feeling old, tired and my face was starting to sag, even I days I was rested, I felt as though I always looked exhausted. After interviewing many doctors and much research, I decided to follow through with my plastic surgery in February. I have to say I am so happy wit the results and Dr. Goodkind's work and professionalism. It has changed my life and Im

Dr. Goodkind was extremely understanding of what my goals were and helped me to accomplish exactly what I was looking for with smart lipo. The procedure itselg was a bit uncomforable but he and his nurse were extremely attentive, accomodating and reassuring during the procedure. Dr. Goodkind is warm and professional. He has performed several procedures on me including a rhinoplasty and eye lift and the results of all the procedures have been incredible. I would never even consider

No One Believes my Age Thanks to Dr Goodkind!! Branford, CT

I have been very fortunate to have been a patient of Dr. Goodkind's for the last 20+ years. I have had multiple surgeries by him ranging from mole removals to cosmetic procedures (liposuction, breast augmentation, face lift, brow lift and a lower lid blepharoplasty) and have been extremely satisfied with my results. From the consult to the post op appointments Dr Goodkind and his staff were always available to answer any and all my questions in a kind, professional and timely

Happy Patient - Branford, CT

I had a breast augment three years ago from Dr. Goodkind and I have been very happy ever since. Dr. Goodkind was very easy to talk to about the surgery, he answered all of my questions and totally put me at ease. I was referred to him by my friend that also had a breast augment and she was VERY pleased. I am glad that I took her advise! Now, I can wear bathing suits or halter tops without worrying about what kind of bra I should wear. I love how I look in my tops now! My

Aptly Named Surgeon is Both Good and Kind - New Haven, CT

I had some sun spots that my dermatologist thought looked questionable. A long time ago, I had a freckle-like spot removed for skin cancer screening by a different dermatologist in CO: the scar was huge and ugly. This time around, my derm recommended I see a plastic surgeon to take off the spots and referred me to Dr. David Goodkind in Branford. I am so glad he did. Dr. Goodkind removed about 6 spots - some in very sensitive areas on my chest. The difference in the scaring is

Just Did It This Morning, Extremely Painful Procedure! - Branford, CT

I had the back of my thighs done this morning. 8 squares on each leg. I paid $2,700. I thought the procedure itself was VERY painful!! My doctor had to keep stopping to give me more lidocaine. He said he's never seen anyone be as uncomfortable as I was. He thought I might be do to low body fat?? Or he was just trying to make me feel better and I'm really just a wimp. I'm about 4 hours postoperative, no medication, just antibiotic. He did give me painkillers. I chose not to

Eyelid Surgery Made a Huge Difference - New Haven, CT

I had my lower and upper lids done about 10 years ago...I was 53. It was the first thing I ever had done and made a huge improvement in my appearance. Pretty intense pain for one day, then just uncomfortable. Took one week off from work and looked a little bruised when I went back, but everyone knew what I had done, so it really didn't matter. Rather than spend a fortune on creams, etc. that really don't correct the problem, I think it's better to have it surgically corrected.

The Cost of Non-disclosure of an Underlying Problem - Branford, CT

I went for a consult with Dr. Goodkind on 12/20/10 for a revision rhinoplasty consult. Procedure performed on 01/04/11. All seemingly went well. Results were good. After time I noticed changes to my nose, starting turning to one side and looking deformed. I returned to see him on 6/11/2013 and he minimized my concerns by suggesting we try to "take a little off" and it would be covered by my insurance. I found out last year from an ENT that I had a severe C deviated septum - completely

Post Surgery Complications

Frustrated with ongoing problems related to surgery on June 2016. Eyebrows uneven, left eyelid won't close completely causing issues. Follow up visit very brief and without resolution to ongoing post sugical concerns. I would not recommend for surgery of any kind due to lack of response, post surgical infections and not addressing results that are not perfect.
