A Doctor and Team That Truly Cares and Has the Skills to "Fix" or "Improve" You.

WORTH IT

I have had an 8 year battle with breast cancer with several cycles of treatments and interim success. At the end of one of the interim cycles I needed to find the right surgeon to “touch up” some of the previous reconstructive surgery. Dr. Marks was highly recommended by my breast surgeon so I decided to give her a try. It was one of those recommendations that you are grateful for forever.

Dr. Marks is easy to talk to and, truly, listens to me. She is an emotional listener, professional yet personable. There is no doubt that she wants the best possible outcome for me and all her patients. We had a great outcome from that initial procedure.

Little did I know that 2 years later I would need a full reconstruction after the breast cancer came back. I knew I needed Dr. Marks and her team again. This time they were not only needed for their medical skills but for their empathetic kind of care. They comforted me, encouraged me, laughed with me, but most of all they cared about me holistically: mentally, emotionally, and medically. Needless to say the surgical outcome was great but more importantly, Dr. Marks and the office manager, Monse, were there supporting me so I could emerge from this season of adversity as a whole person.

Along the way I have also taken advantage of some of the cosmetic services and products they offer, and have been very pleased with them. I would recommend Dr. Marks and her team to anyone for any of the surgical or cosmetic services they offer.
