Very Talented Surgeon, Great Experience.

I came to Dr Castellano as a 59 year old woman who had previously had a tummy tuck with muscle repair, and a breast lift with saline implants. Those surgeries were 20 years ago. Since then, I gained and lost 100 lbs. I had loose skin below by belly button, and I still had a lot of stretch marks, just lower on my stomach than before. My implants unfortunately bottomed out fairly early after my first surgery. A lot of Drs don't like to make repairs to other Drs work. Dr Castellano is not one of those Drs. He never criticized the previous Dr, he just talked about what he thought he could do. He did a second tummy tuck, replaced the 20 year old implants and did a "tuck up" to fix the bottoming out. I am only 3 weeks post op. I have had a very easy recovery. It is not without pain, it's major surgery. But my pain control was adequate and my body heals well. The worst bruising was from the IV. I am still healing but so far the results exceed my expectations. The office is clean and contemporary, the staff is exceptional. His fellow, Dr Pallacio, is fantastic. Dr Castellano is vastly more talented than the first surgeon was.
