“I’m so happy with my breast lift results! Dr Rod did a great job and his nurse, Mary is the best. They have been so easy to work with and accommodating. Would highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience from start to finish. Dr. Schmelzer was absolutely exceptional—professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answered all of my questions, and made me feel completely comfortable and confident in my decision. My results exceeded my expectations and look incredibly natural. The entire staff was just as amazing—friendly, supportive, and attentive at every step. From scheduling to pre-op and post-op care, everything was smooth, organized, and reassuring. I always felt welcomed and truly cared for. I highly recommend him and his team to anyone considering a cosmetic procedure.”
“The surgery was a success. Dr. Schmelzer and team were very accommodating throughout the process. 12/10 would recommend this doctor especially if you are someone specific on your needs or aesthetic/looks. He listens to exactly what you want and will do his absolute very best to get you the results you desire. Don’t be afraid to speak up with anyone in life because there’s always someone that notices and listens and that for me was him. From the consult to the end of surgery there was clear communication, no rush, it was very calm and everyone at the center is very warm and welcoming. I can say it was worth it for getting my desired look. The doctor was extremely caring and listened to my needs. I would never hesitate to recommend him to anyone.”
“This was my first ever surgery and my first time going under anesthesia, and the entire team made me feel completely safe and comfortable from start to finish. Dr. Schmelzer and his staff were so attentive, reassuring, and gentle throughout the whole process. My results came out more than amazing. I’m already obsessed and I’m forever grateful I chose this place. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or outcome.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Dr. Schmelzer and the entire team. From my very first consultation through every step of the process, I felt genuinely cared for, supported, and completely at ease. So happy I chose them for my rhinoplasty! The staff is incredibly kind, patient, and attentive — he took the time to answer all of my questions and made sure I felt comfortable and informed throughout my entire journey. I’m only about a month into my recovery, and even so, my results have already been absolutely amazing. The change has truly been life-changing for me, both physically and emotionally. I feel more confident, more like myself, and so grateful that I trusted him with something so personal.”
