I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Aitken. I chose her because I had four friends who went to her and were very happy with their results. I saw Dr. Aitken twice for consultations. She patiently answered my questions, addressed my concerns, and never made me feel rushed. The day of my surgery went flawlessly. The staff are all kind and efficient. Dr. Aitken has a confidence and calmness about her that really put me at ease. I had a maxtopexy with implants. After years of having saggy breasts that rested on my rib cage, I awoke from surgery with breast that no longer laid on the skin beneath them. The results were better than I even imagined. The recovery was uneventful. I was concerned during my consultations about being too big but Dr. Aitken listened to me and I am exactly the size I was hoping for. Dr. Aitken is not only an amazing surgeon but also an artist!
I had a wonderful experience with Dr Aitken and my mommy makeover. From start to finish I was comfortable and well taken care of! Could not recommend more, my results were everything I could have hoped for and more!
Dr. Aitken listened to what I wanted and made it happen. She described all the details of what my final outcome would look like and what to expect for recovery. I was slightly nervous going into the procedure because I saw other breast lift before and after photos from other plastic surgeons in the US and didn't like how their procedures looked. I really wanted to just do a breast lift without implants, have them high and perky, yet natural looking. I cried tears of joy the first time I saw myself post-surgery, and the outcome just gets better and better as they continue healing. My before and after photos are exactly what I was hoping for. Dr. Aitken did a beautiful job and her team was fabulous. They answered every question and concern I sent their way via a secure text line. My only wish is that I wouldn't have hesitated for years and I would have had this done years ago. I feel like a new woman! THANK YOU!
I cannot even begin to say in 200 words how amazing my experience was with Dr. Aitken. I’m feeling like a new person. My friends and family tell me I’m looking young, refreshed, and pretty. So I thank you very, very much for your kindness, patience, skill, and expertise. You’ve made a wonderful difference in my life. You are truly an artist.
Dr. Aitken is a force of nature! This kind, intelligent and skilled surgeon understood my goals, wasn't judgmental, and thoroughly and successfully treated the issue I presented to her. She's an artist whose canvas is the body and an amazing doctor. I fully trust Dr. Aitken and her staff, and would recommend her to anyone.
From the first appointment to the follow up after surgery - everything was great. Dr. Aitken is a true artist and is amazing. Not only is her work great - but she incredibly kind and wonderful to be around. Her staff is also amazing. I would recommend her to anyone!!
Dr. Aitken made this experience so easy from start to finish. I was a little unsure on size and she has an amazing read on her patients and what they want. She made some of her own judgement calls during the surgery based on our conversations during consults. The results were perfect which shows how much she truly listens to her patients. I never felt rushed and she was very thorough. She is the best!
I am basically speechless but I’ll do my best- words can’t describe how happy I am with Dr. Aitken. She is so personable and sweet. I was scheduled for a breast reduction and during my consult she answered all my questions, gave me advice, encouraged the outcome and reassured I’d be happy with my results. She even personally called me at night after my morning surgery to check I was doing okay. I am beyond grateful and now have the confidence I’ve been hoping for my whole life. Thank you Dr. Aitken for making my dream come true!
Absolutely phenomenal doc—best bedside manner. Very kind while being honest about outcomes, sense of humor is great. She’s skilled, smart, an artist, really. More than anything, it’s obvious she loves her job and her patients. Outstanding staff that made me comfortable every step of the way.
It was an amazing experience from start to finish! She is a great listener and made me feel like she had all the time in the world for all my questions. She is compassionate and it is evident she cares deeply about her patients. What started out as a scary situation, ended with the best surgical experience, healing and recovery I have ever had. She is a top notch surgeon her doesn’t leave a detail unfinished. I am incredibly happy with the final outcome of my implant removal!
