From the reviews
Dr Van Putten is a very caring and thorough doctor. He did an awesome job with surgery on my eyelids to make my vision better! I would recommend him!
I was referred to Dr. Vanputten regarding trouble I was having with my peripheral vision and eyelids feeling heavy. I was a little nervous at the thought of needing surgery on my eyes, but I was more concerned with visual difficulties I had been having while driving at night.
Last fall I developed angle closure Glaucoma in my eyes caused by a drug reaction. The experience was quite frightening, but once I met with Dr. Van Putten, my fears were put to rest.
I had eye surgery with Dr Van Putten on September 8, 2021. Dr. Explained the entire procedure to raise my eye lids and greatly improve my vision. Dr.Van Putten has a great bedside manner, excellent , caring surgeon and I feel very fortunate that he performed my operation.
Researching a tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.
Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
