From the reviews
My experience with Dr. Glafkides and his team was absolutely amazing! He listened to me, explained to me in simple words the entire process for my breast cancer situation and made me feel very comfortable about next steps. My surgery could not have gone better and it’s all because of Dr. Glafkides.
25 years ago I was a patient of Dr Michael Glafkides for a breast reconstruction because of a mastectomy due to breast cancer. And while we were at it, he also performed an eye lift. I was extremely thrilled with the outcome of both.
I am beyond grateful that I found Dr. Gladkides! I can’t say enough wonderful things about him and Melinda. Dr. Gladkides partnered with my ENT, Dr. Ellison, for my nose surgery, and he was everything I could have ever hoped for in a surgeon; gentle, polite, kind, and endlessly patient.
Dr. Glafkides is hands down one of the best doctors I've ever worked with. He goes above and beyond taking care of his patients and making sure they know the details, and feel confident in their decisions.
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.
