"The get well card and the flowers following surgery were a lovely touch. I also appreciate that the nurse came to my home the day after my surgery to see how I was doing. The staff are lovely people, especially the patient coordinator. She, as well as the nurses, addressed all of my questions and concerns. It is nice that I can reach a doctor/nurse after business hours if necessary."

Dr. Patronella and Staff,

"Your office staff is always very professional and accommodating. It is approximately 100 miles from our home to your office, and the staff is always willing to make my appointments so we do not have to leave home too early."
—a patient
"You gave me the balanced body I had worked so hard to achieve through exercise and diet;...Fortunately I found you and your amazing staff! Please know that every day I wake up to dress for the day, I appreciate the incredible results and service you delivered...I will always be happy I chose you to be my surgeon!"
—a patient
"You gave me a new body and my whole outlook on life has changed. I have never felt better in my entire life. I know that many of your patients feel the same way. I know this because of something that happened in your office several months ago.
Last May, right after my tummy tuck, your appointments were running several hours behind due to an emergency that you had earlier that day. There were at least 10 people waiting to see you, and most had been there for a couple of hours. Do you know what? Every single person in the waiting room said they would wait all day to see you if it was necessary. Nobody was even upset. Then we all told each other how we had become one of your patients. Some had researched and interviewed many surgeons, one had been referred by some friends that were nurses, and, of course, I selected you from a gut feeling I had when reviewing a list of plastic surgeons in Houston. Well, it took some of us a year, and some of us only a few seconds, but we all came to the same conclusion—you are the best!!"
—a patient
"I had gotten a few opinions from other doctors before I had my surgery with Dr. Patronella. As soon as I walked into Dr Patronella's office I could see the difference of care that I didn't see at other offices. Dr. Patronella and his staff were down to earth and very interested in me. From the minute I walked into the office to the minute I left, I felt like I was their only patient. I was never rushed! Dr. Patronella is a very good listener and for that reason, along with his knowledge, I'm very pleased with my experience. Thank you Dr. Patronella and staff!"
—a patient
"My appointment was rescheduled with consideration from the staff that I was only in town for a few days, they were very attentive in making sure I got in even though I'm sure there were a lot of cancelled appointments on the snow day. This is one of the things I love about Patonella and his team. They orchestrate the office like a fine-oiled machine. No one misses a beat and the best thing is that I have been taken care of on a few occasions in the past 13 years by some of the same staff that are still there today."
—a patient
"As a patient, you can see that Patronella must be as good at mangement and team building as he is at creating comfortable and aesthetically great surgical results. I feel like I am visiting family when I go there whether it is a surgical procedure or just a consult or follow up. Everyone is on the same page and I have tremendous confidence in the entire staff. Thanks to everyone who works so hard to keep that machine running. I look forward to next time I need Dr. Patronella to come to the rescue."
—a patient

"Thank you for putting so much pride in your work and, of course, improving my outlook on life."
—a patient
"Dear Dr. Patronella,
I would like to thank you and your staff for the quality of the care and attention I received before, during, and after my recent surgery. From the very first contact on the telephone, I was treated with warm, caring professionalism. In a world where we often lose the focus of our mutual humanity, it has been a reaffirming pleasure to be your patient."
—a patient
"Thank you so much for the genuine, heartfelt concern and resolve that you have provided me over the last few months. I am pleased with the surgery we completed in May and am so happy with the results of my overall "look." Thank you for your patience and your professional integrity to provide the results that we have. I highly recommend your services."
—a patient

"After wanting this procedure done for years, I finally began my search for the best doctor in Houston. I believe searching for my doctor was the most stressful part out of the entire experience. But I know I found him. He is everything you could ask for in a doctor. I had total confidence in him going into the procedure. I felt excitement more than any other emotion. If I had to do it again, I would definitely go see Dr. Patronella. His staff was also top of the line. I refer him to EVERYONE even if they are not looking into plastic surgery. I am still amazed at how great my results are. Dr. Patronella is the best surgeon in town. Promise!"
—a patient
Dear Dr. Patronella,
"It has been said that artists use people to make human beings seem more wonderful than they really are. And you, with the stroke of your brush, have painted me much more beautiful than I really am. A heartfelt thanks is also extended to your incredibly compassionate staff. You are a credit to the medical profession because you combine the skill and craftsmanship of an artist with the dedication and commitment of a best friend."
—a patient
"I would not have went to another doctor. Dr. P and his staff were very nice. They don't make you feel like you're just another patient. I already have a few friends that are wanting to go to Dr. P for their breast augmentations because of all the good that I have told them about him and his staff. Thanks for being so caring during the whole process. You guys were nothing but the best!"
—a patient
"Dr. Patronella and his staff are extremely personable and professional. I have been confident that I have been in good hands and appreciate Dr. Patronella's attention to detail. Dr. Patronella was a referral, and I intend to refer him to my friends as well. Thanks!"
—a patient
Dr. Patronella,
"I cannot thank you enough for giving me back my self-confidence. That gift is really priceless. I expected to look and feel better after my liposuction surgery, but never dreamed I would get such amazing results. Every day someone tells me, " I knew somebody who had liposuction---and they sure didn't look this good!" My whole experience was great. Everyone on your staff was so positive and enthusiastic. I am recommending you to everyone who is interested. My only regret is that I did not do this five years ago."
—a patient
Dr. Patronella,

Your staff is very courteous and professional, and y'all have treated me as if I were your only patient. Thanks for taking such great care of me!"

Dear Dr. Patronella,

A special thanks to you, Dr. Patronella. Your surgical skill and artistic talent made my hopes and wishes come true."
—a patient
Dear Dr. Patronella,

—a patient
Dear Dr. Patronella,
"I have been overjoyed with my results; the experience has even been pleasing because of such a wonderful group of people. Dr. Patronella, you have forever changed my life! I feel like the quality of my life has improved. I can enjoy it even more!"
—a patient
"I am just two weeks out from my augmentation and could not be happier with the results. After years of wanting the surgery and thinking it over but being absolutely terrified of the pain and the idea of surgery, I finally made an appointment for a consultation and was able to schedule my surgery for a month later. Dr. Patronella was recommended to me by my pickiest friend who was happy with her results from him. His office has addressed all of my concerns and provided me ample information about what to expect and guidelines for pre and post surgery. The day of the surgery, I walked in excited and not nervous, which I think says a lot about all of the preparation materials and consultations with his office. The anesthesiologist has a magic cocktail for surgery and was amazing at putting me at ease before surgery and [with] the IV. The post-op nurse was also kind and helped me afterwards, as was the nurse sent out to me the following day. Despite being terrified of pain, I did not end up taking any of the prescribed pain killers. Having my wisdom teeth out through IV sedation was way more traumatic than this surgery! I think Dr. Patronella and his staff have patient care down to a fine science. I also think Dr. Patronella listens to exactly what the patient wants. I gave him an idea of what I wanted and he took into account my natural body type, and he gave me natural results, which is exactly what I wanted. He also took into account a natural deformity that I have in my breast bone and accounted for it--the end result is much more symmetrical than what I started with! I am so happy that I went through with the surgery and that I chose Dr. Patronella as my surgeon."

"Dear Dr. Patronella,
I hope the tardiness of this thank you won't discount how grateful and thankful I am for what you have done for me. There is an incredible difference in my life now and my life before the injections! For the past several years I have watched my face slowly sink, and along with that, my attitude and self confidence also shrunk. It is AMAZING to me to see the difference in my face now and how good I feel about myself."
-a patient
"I really want to thank you for your honesty in advising me about Sculptra and understanding that it wasn't just wrinkles I wanted to get rid of (with a face lift) but rather the sick sunken look of my face. Thank you and your staff for the gentleness and kindness during the actual injection process!"
