I saw Dr. Mayer the other day and I think it was a physician's assistant or maybe it was a nurse. I'm not sure who. It was a woman and she was so nice. She'd had a cold for a really long time. I wish I could remember her name. But anyhow, I was nervous about going to a plastic surgeon. I preferred to have a female, but there were no females on the staff as surgeons, which I think you should completely correct immediately. But on the plus side, Dr. Mayer, he was very competent. I liked him. I felt good about him, but I would have rather had a female being a female. So maybe you should hire a female plastic surgeon. That might behoove you. But anyhow, Dr. Mayer was great and the physician's assistant or the nurse or the CNA, she was amazing. She had great

Everyone from registration, to nurses, to doctors were absolutely wonderful! Out of all the surgeries and hospitals I've been to in my extensive medical history this was the best experience and best team I've ever had. I couldn't recommend it more and I am so grateful for everyone. Dr. Mayer and my nurses were incredibly kind and helpful. They were all informed of my medical history but still double checked everything and involved me in discussions and checked in many times. They were all amazing at what they do and just amazing and kind people in general.

The after effects of the surgery on my lower lip is now quite painful, even with extra strength Tylenol maximum per day. I wasn't aware that the after effects would be so painful. I took the day off from work. I don't want additional pain medication. It would have helped to know what to expect for pain after surgery. The medical team did a great job with the surgery. Thank you!

Dr. Alexander Mayer is an amazing doctor, caring and very thorough. He even is concerned about my overall health not just what he specifically specializes in. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family, if they needed his specific area of expertise. He did a beautiful job on my skin removal. It is healthier that it is gone, and I am even more confident about my body. The nurses that work for him are very nice and helpful.
