My Personal Decision: I've contemplated having...

WORTH IT
My Personal Decision:
I've contemplated having this surgery for years. Now in my mid 20’s and loving who I am becoming, I decided to treat myself well and have the courage to change the things I can! As I am able to invest more love and care in myself, I will be able to radiate and share even more love and care to others.

Decision on the Physician:
From all my research it was apparent, one physician kept coming up: Pousti Plastic Surgery. With Dr. Pousti's extensive and impressive portfolio with numerous positive reviews via Real Self, You Tube, and his website (and beyond with Pinterest, Twitter), the Pousti Team’s practice was portrayed to be caring, knowledgable, and professional. From what I found, many of Dr. Pousti’s team members have been working with him for many years, which suggests the strength of the team and it’s leader. Ultimately I knew, if I were to undergo any type of surgery or medical procedure, I would only choose a reputable and trusted physician, no matter the distance.

Outcome (as of 5/23/2015):
Completely satisfied with the care and service of the Pousti Team! Responsive, knowledgable, professional, and they truly care for their patients and team members!
As for my results, everything has gone well! There have been times I have questioned if I chose the right size for me. Then I recall the main reason I chose Dr. Pousti and his team is because they are the experts and I trust them to have my best interests in mind. For my goal photos, his portfolio was filled with excellent outcomes and I was able to compile my preferred photos together in a pdf file to send to them.
Either way, this experience was great! The Pousti Team have been very kind. Personally, this is a reminder to myself, I am capable of anything and I deserve the best! ...and so do you! Do your due diligence and research enough to satisfy your standards and choose the best physician for you!

All the happiness to you!

From the first contact via the phone all the way through the surgery and even now, Dr. Pousti and his team has shown great kindness! Dr. Pousti is a great model in interpersonal skills. He displayed kind interactions, spoke highly of each person on his team as well as his patients. When he introduced me to some of his team and patients, he gave short introductions highlighting the individual and how valuable they are. In his manner in which he spoke, it alluded to his professionalism and expertise. He was able to establish rapport and was very respectful. Even prior to officially meeting with him, my mother (whom accompanied me) and I, while sitting in the waiting room he would pass by and mentioned how he was appreciative of our patience. Furthermore, a woman entered his office and appeared to be looking for another practitioner. He informed her where she was looking to go and even went to open the door for her and stepped out to offer directions. As for testimonials (aside from the numerous ones posted online), the Pousti Team offered, if I wished, to connect with past patients I may receive their contact info. Also, while at the office I had the opportunity to meet with other patients. In fact, they encouraged it! Once they obtained permission from the patient, Dr. Pousti (or a team member) would offer a quick introduction and then would allow the patient, my mother and myself to speak freely and independent of any Pousti representative. Following the surgery for about 2 weeks or so, Daisy (an excellent team member), checked in via a daily phone call to ensure all was well and if I had any questions. She also was very kind and when questions would arise, was well informed. From my observation and conversations with him, his team, and his patients, it truly reinforces how Dr. Pousti and his team are passionate about their patients, their happiness and wellbeing. Wishing the Pousti Team continued success!! Thank you, I am grateful for the positive experience! Thank you for your kindness!
