Dr. Gardener Made Me a Priority

Since it was the 1st day getting to SEE my new boobs since surgery the previous afternoon, I had asked Dr. Gardner if he minded me just snapping a quick pic in the mirror (to document the drop/fluff process thru time). He jovially replied, “of course not—they’re yours!”

Then after my mediocre mirror shot, he said “let me take one for you.” He had me face forward, at 45 degrees, and at 90 degrees from both sides. He said “if we’re taking pics we might as well do it right!”

It was very endearing that he was so enthusiastic about my results and cared about making sure I retained quality angled photos from my day 1 checkup.

I had the pleasure of meeting with Dr. Gardner the day following a breast operation by one of his colleagues (who happened to be at a different location during my day 1 post op visit). I was highly impressed at the genuine care Dr. Gardner gave to me and my case; especially given that I wasn’t even his own patient. He took the time to access how I was feeling, to examine my operation sites, test the affected nerves for sensation, and offer paternal advice on how to safely manage my pain. He’s a highly personable doctor and I feel confident he would be an excellent choice for anyone considering him as their cosmetic surgeon. I can’t say enough great things about Southern Surgical Arts and their entire staff.
