Provider Review

• 9 Jan 2015

I had my first appointment 1 day before surgery and after reading so many great things about Karel the girl at the front desk, when I walked in she was as friendly, sweet and beautiful as all the other patients wrote! She just has this aura around her and makes you feel great as soon as you walk in. The office is posh and clean. Dr.Goico was on point, extremely personable and polite. He spent at least two hours with me in the first consultation talking about everything; risks, what I'm looking for, what I can expect all of the things. We did blood work and a test on the EKG. He also told me he would sit me up at least three times during surgery-that's how they can see the implant placement for how you and the world will see it. Most doctors only do it once at the end from what I've researched. About the anesthesiologist, They hold your life in their hands you want to know that there practiced and that the doctor respects and likes working with them. In my case when I contacted Dr.Goico he had told me that was one of the reasons why he choose to work at the clinic that he does -because the anesthesiologist is practically overqualified and actually works most days doing heart transplants a far more technical job than surgeries of breast augmentation. This made me feel very reassured. The day of surgey I was nervous but when I got to the clinic it just so nice and clean Dr. G kind of has a Superman/Clark Kent thing going on, he looks very sharp behind his desk and then the day of surgery he comes out looking like a super hero Ninja surgeon) Another point that I loved about the Dr. Goico was that he wanted to see me almost every day after my surgery for the first 10 days. I received the lymphatic drainage massages when I would go in and just having your surgeon tell you that everything is going good is very comforting. I know it wouldn't have been like that had I decided to do it in the states. For the results I wanted Dr. Goico was amazing and very informative makes you feel very comfortable, I would absolutely recommend him to any of my friends who are considering the plastic surgery. I will add that day or night he has email and he answers. If you don't have a phone on island he has a company phone to lend you! Talk about 5 stars! Another client said it best: "When you hear him describe his technique and how he makes a few things different (and explain why he does so) you notice you're in the hands of a true artist, and that's exactly how I feel now, like a piece of art." Thanks Dr Luis A. Fernandez Goico
