Breast Testimonials
Breast Reconstruction
“When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in January 2010, my general surgeon recommended Dr. Michael Diaz for my breast reconstruction. Although I was to have a bilateral mastectomy, initially I was reluctant to have reconstruction. My husband and I met with Dr. Diaz and his staff to listen to the details. Dr. Diaz and Naomi were both compassionate, attentive listeners. I felt they heard my reservations and fears. I never felt compelled to go through the procedure; rather, Dr. Diaz laid out all the information, gave his opinion, and allowed me to feel welcomed to decline his services. My husband and I left the office that day to discuss my options and feelings in private. I decided that breast reconstruction was the right choice, and we both felt that from the great emotional support from Dr. Diaz and his staff, we had chosen the right doctor to perform the procedure.
“I couldn’t have been happier with Dr. Diaz. I am in my mid-fifties and had had four major non-elective operations before being diagnosed with breast cancer. At my age, I have interacted with many doctors and a fair number of surgeons. I have never felt inclined to write about a doctor. Dr. Diaz is just that unusual.
“There are many examples of Dr. Diaz’s differences. He never rushes his patients. He truly listens and responds to all questions and concerns. Have you ever had a doctor call you the night before surgery and ask if you were okay? Dr. Diaz does that; furthermore, he gives you his personal cell phone number to call if you have any problems or concerns! When I had my first breast cancer operation, Dr. Diaz was right by my side even though he was not due to work on me until later on in the operation.
“Dr. Diaz cares about each and every patient. I had to see him every week for many months, and I observed that he treated every other patient with the same care and compassion with which he treated me. The doctor treats his patients as whole or total people, too. By that I mean he is very concerned about what the patient eats and does outside of the office to expedite healing. He is very interested in the total health and recovery of his patients. What’s more, he is a perfectionist about his work. My husband and I have been both shocked and delighted with what Dr. Diaz can do with the female body. He makes the horrible experience of losing both breasts much less painful. What’s more, I look better in my clothes now that I ever did with my own breasts. The doctor gave me tasteful new breasts (I’m a 34B), and in doing so, he enhanced my self esteem.
“In short, I could not have survived the ordeal of breast cancer without Dr. Diaz and his truly outstanding staff. The staff—particularly Naomi—are as dear as family with their patients. They all walk this journey with you, beside you. It is my hope that you, too, will choose to make the best out of a bad diagnosis by having Dr. Diaz as your breast reconstruction surgeon.”
Breast Reduction
“For many years I suffered from intense back and shoulder pain because of my large breasts. I was a double D cup size and my oversized breasts made it difficult to move around. My primary care physician recommended Dr. Diaz. I was always hesitant about having a breast reduction procedure because of my concern of surgery. When I met Dr. Diaz he immediately put me at ease. His kindness, compassion and understanding gave me the confidence I needed. I had my surgery and during my recovery I couldn’t believe his tender bedside manners. I wasn’t the easiest patient to deal with and yet he was so patient. He truly changed my life! I’m happier, healthier and love my new breasts. My only regret is that I didn’t have the procedure done sooner. Thank you Dr. Diaz from the bottom of my heart!”
Breast Implant Correction
“I had breast implants that I needed replaced. I had developed a capsular contraction from my previous breast augmentation surgery done by another surgeon and was so unhappy with the shape of my breasts. They no longer looked or felt natural. I was unsure as to who could give me a great result.
“Then, I heard about Dr. Michael Diaz and his specialty of breast and body and correcting previous cosmetic surgery. He listed to me, explained in detail what I needed and immediately made me feel comfortable. I was sure I found the right surgeon and not only did he give me the natural looking breasts I wanted but restored my confidence. I would highly recommend Dr. Diaz.”
Breast Augmentation with Dr. Diaz
“I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Diaz. His office staff was very professional and informative when I called the office to schedule my consult. On the day of my consult, Dr. Diaz spent a lot of time answering my many questions and addressing my concerns. He made me feel very comfortable and safe. I am so happy that I selected him as my doctor. I love my results! I’ve had so many compliments and would definitely refer any of my friends and family to him. He is such a great surgeon and cares so much for his patients.”
Breast Reconstruction
“Dr. Diaz is not only a magnificent surgeon, he is also kindhearted and takes pride on his work. Highly recommend Dr. Michael Diaz.”
“My Twins” Never Looked This Good
“I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your kindness. It seems I’ve wanted to do this for years and when I first met you, I knew you were the one. I can’t believe how easy this procedure was. You are the best at what you do and a truly wonderful, kind person. I wish you many successful years and all God’s many blessings.”
Combined Procedures, Two Great Results: One Surgery & Recuperation Period
“I’m a mom of three beautiful children and while I’m thrilled with my little ones I’m was not with what was left of my body. I lost all the baby weight but had severe stretch marks, loose abdominal skin and sagging breasts that also needed a breast implant exchange. Because I’m a business owner and busy mom and wife; I was very concerned about the recovery time and the ability of one surgery addressing all my needs. It was very important for me to minimize my down time from the recovery period. I was highly recommended Dr. Diaz by several different people. He assured me I was a great candidate for a combined procedure. I decided to have a breast implant exchange with lift and a tummy tuck. I couldn’t be happier. He was amazing! And I couldn’t believe the personal attention I was given when he came to my house the night after the surgery to make sure I was doing fine. I have my pre mommy figure back and both my husband and I are thrilled!”
A Mommy Makeover Patient Says ‘Dr. Michael Diaz Changed My Life Forever!’
“I had previous liposuction of my abdomen and was left with some abnormalities that made me feel very uncomfortable. I heard that Dr. Michael Diaz specialized in Breast and Body cosmetic surgery so I decided to see him for a consultation. During the consult, he was very attentive and kind. He wasn’t judgemental at all — he only offered encouragement and support. He was so understanding during the consult that I decided to ask his opinion of my breasts as well as my abdomen. I ended up having a Mommy Makeover, which consisted of a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and breast lift. I couldn’t be happier with my results! Let’s just say, I”m on the up side of 40 and I feel more confident today than I ever have! He gave me the rejuvenation and courage that I needed to boost my self esteem. I will forever be grateful to him — he truly changed my life!!!!!”
Body Testimonials
Weight loss Triumph & Renewed Self
“I never thought it possible to lose over 100 lbs and have a beautiful figure. For most of my youth and adult life I always battled excess weight. When I first came to Dr. Diaz he recommended I see an endocrinologist and a primary care physician so I can begin a medically controlled weight-loss program. Dr. Diaz coordinated my weight loss management. The total process to lose the necessary weight was over 2 1/2 years. During this time Dr. Diaz kept close communication with all my doctors. After losing all the necessary weight Dr. Diaz recommended I have a full body lift procedure. His close personal attention and warm bedside manner were incredibly reassuring during my recovery process. He encouraged me every step of the way. Not only do I have a beautifully contoured figure but I have confidence and self-esteem I never knew possible. I feel I can conquer anything. I’m a better mom and wife and a more confident professional. I live a healthy and active lifestyle with daily exercise, diet and tennis playing. Dr. Diaz changed my life forever! His skill, compassion and warm approach are truly his gifts. When I heard Dr. Diaz was relocating his practice to Central Florida I felt a family member was moving away. No matter the distance he’ll always be my plastic surgeon!”
Tummy Tuck – Smart Lipo
“Several years ago, I had a procedure called “Smart Lipo” to my abdominal area. I had a small pooch in my lower abdomen that had always been concerning for me. I was assured that Smart Lipo would remove the excess fat from my abdomen AND tighten my loose skin. Considering this was my first time having any kind of cosmetic surgery, I was very excited about the potential results, minimal down time, and minimal scarring. For the first time ever, I could imagine myself wearing a two piece bathing suit!
“Unfortunately, my experience did not give me the results I expected. After my procedure, I was left with skin that was even looser than before my surgery, lumps and bumps on my abdomen, and multiple scars. Instead of being happy, I was very disappointed and embarrassed. I didn’t want to let anyone, including my husband, see my abdomen.
“After this experience, I was reluctant to have surgery by the same doctor again. I lived with the abnormalities for several years, but it continued to bother me and have a negative impact on my self esteem.
“I recently relocated to Florida. I had some time off before I started working again so I started researching doctors in the area. Being new to the area, I heard about Dr. Michael Diaz and how he specialized in “breast and body” and revisionary procedures. I was impressed with his qualifications and specialization so I decided to schedule a consult with him. After my consultation, I immediately knew he was the surgeon for me. He had a great bedside manner, seemed extremely knowledgeable in his field, and was very sympathetic to my situation. Instead of judging me for making a mistake, he encouraged me and offered correction. After seeing before & after pictures of his previous tummy tuck patients, I was completely sold out to the idea of a secondary procedure with Dr. Diaz. I felt confident that he would give me an even better result than I had expected from my first procedure.
“Needless to say, I am ecstatic with my results. I couldn’t be happier! Thanks to Dr. Diaz, I may end up in that two piece bathing suit after all! Dr. Diaz not only helped renew my self esteem in my marriage, but totally restored my confidence in the workplace. I feel so much better in all aspects of my daily life. Without reservation, I would recommend Dr. Diaz to my family and closest friends. He truly changed my life!”
Amazing Man, Amazing Results!
“My experience with Dr. Diaz and his staff was absolutely phenomenal! From the very first consult, to the procedure, along with every follow-up visit all well exceeded my expectations. His consult was honest, compassionate and completely without pressure. Dr. Diaz has the best bedside manner I’ve ever experienced. He makes you feel so at ease and totally comfortable. He was available at ALL times, which I found very comforting. Not only is he so knowledgeable and experienced at what he does, yet what sets him above the rest is he truly strives for excellence in his work and it shows! He is not only making you feel better about yourself but also wants to be very proud of the work he has done. The personal attention and care I received from Dr. Diaz and his staff for my tummy tuck procedure I don’t believe one could find anywhere else. Everyone is always cheerful, taking their time with you to the extent you feel like old friends. In fact, I’m sad to think of when my follow-ups are through! I am elated with my results and the entire process! If you are ever considering a procedure, forget the rest because you’ve found the BEST!!”
