Chicago Institute of Plastic Surgery - Barrington

Thrilled to have found Dr. Patel!!! I was referred to him to treat and remove a Hemangioma. I met with him (very easy to get an appt.) he took the time to look at my issue and explain what needed to be done. I was able to have this surgically removed without any difficulties or issues. Since having it removed my scar is healing nicely. Really can't say anything negative about my experience here. If you are in need of any type of plastic surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Patel. He is awesome!!!

After years of feeling insecure about my body, choosing to have a breast augmentation with my plastic surgeon was truly life-changing. From the very first consultation, I felt heard, understood, and supported. My surgeon took the time to explain every step of the process, listened carefully to my goals, and helped me choose the best size and shape for my body type. The entire experience was professional, safe, and empowering.

Post-surgery, the physical transformation was incredible, but what truly surprised me was the emotional impact. I feel more confident in my clothes, more comfortable in my skin, and more in control of how I present myself to the world. It’s not just about looking different—it’s about finally feeling like myself. The care I received before, during, and after surgery was exceptional, and I always felt like a priority.

This decision improved my self-esteem, enhanced my quality of life, and gave me a sense of confidence I never thought possible. I’m beyond grateful to my surgeon and the team for helping me take this step. It wasn’t just a cosmetic procedure—it was a major step toward becoming the best version of myself. I couldn’t be happier.

So grateful

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Dhaval M. Patel, MD, Double Boarded Plastic Surgeon, at the Chicago Institute of Plastic Surgery. From the very first consultation through every step of my reconstructive surgeries following a double mastectomy, Dr. Patel was exceptional. His work is beyond amazing—his attention to detail is truly unmatched.

What meant the most to me was how much time he took to ensure I understood the process and felt supported at every stage. He didn’t just treat me as a patient—he took the time to get to know me as a person. That level of care, compassion, and professionalism made all the difference during a very vulnerable time in my life.

Before you go anywhere else, please see Dr. Patel. You’ll be in the best possible hands.

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Patel at the Chicago Institute of Plastic Surgery. From the warm and professional staff to Dr. Patel’s thoughtful and expert care, everything exceeded my expectations. He really listened to my goals and made me feel confident every step of the way. My results are natural and exactly what I hoped for—I couldn’t be happier!

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Patel and his staff!!! In all regards, from surgery to the staff, to after care, one will not find any physician who does a better job! Amazing, amazing!!! I found Dr. Patel on RealSelf and I am so grateful for other reviews provided by other patients on this site, which assisted me with my final choice of provider!

Dr Patel and his whole staff give an outstanding experience. From the welcoming staff who make me feel safe and reassured to Dr Patel who has given me two procedures with outstanding results. I recommend everyone to them. Amy makes me look forward to my check ups. She makes me feel confident during the process. Can’t recommend enough

Dr Patel and his staff were amazing! I’m 57 and had 6 kids. My stomach looks like I had no kids!! Dr Patel is a miracle worker! I’m beyond happy with my results! Dr Patel is double board certified and it shows in his work. His staff is professional and took such great care of me. I can’t thank them enough.

I spent the time to research many doctors before choosing Dr Patel. Upon meeting him was very honest with me about the condition of my eyes and explained well what I would need as well as allowing me to ask all my questions. The day of surgery I became quite nervous waiting for surgery but he came in the room calm and in no rush. He went over my concerns again and made me feel more relaxed before the procedure. He continues to show care and compassion in each of my follow up appointments and I find his personality as stellar as his work!

I came to Dr Patel with my eyelids resting on my eyelashes and horrible bags under my eyes. He was gentle, very nice and does exceptional work. I look may years younger! I’m thrilled with his work and my appearance. The best!!
