From the reviews
After four years of consults with surgeons in Michigan and California, I chose Dr. P's office in San Diego for my face and neck lift. Initially, I worked over the phone and email with Tracey setting up the consult. She was quick to respond to my questions and followed thru on what needed to be done.
EXCELLENT in every way! Unfortunately, it’s hard to navigate through so many choices in doctors & the sad thing is that most of your options will provide you less than stellar results. Dr P was the first plastic surgeon I ever went to & I assumed they were all awesome like him.
I cannot thank Dr Pietrazek and his whole team enough. I went to him looking into a breast augmentation and lift. That was a few years ago. Finally the time was right. But, I had different plans now. I wanted a tummy tuck too!
Came here as a referral from 2 friends who were very satisfied with their results, and I too am Incredibly happy with the entire process and my results. From intake to post-op, Dr. Pietraszek and Tracy took care of me and my needs. They are diligent and considerate with their patients providing realistic expectations.
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.
