I WAS FORTUNATE TO FIND DR. PTAK - AMAZING!

5.0 stars - Written on January 23, 2020

My name is Irene, and I'm 52 years old. I have always been a woman with a small physique. As a teenager and youngest of five sisters, I just knew my figure would fill out like theirs. Well, that day never came. I always felt like a 12-year-old girl with small breasts. I always wanted to look more like a woman, and in my head, that meant fuller breasts. After giving birth to my daughter at 25, my breasts needed more help than ever before, which inspired me to enhance them at the age of 30.

After extensive research, I was fortunate to find Dr. Ptak. I was seeking a doctor with a great bedside manner and someone with my health in their best interest. Well, I got more than that.

When I met Dr. Ptak for the first time, he was such a soft-spoken person with charisma. He explained my procedure so extensively that I immediately knew I was in good hands and trusted him.

My surgery went smoothly, and it was successful. I enjoyed having my implants for 11 years, but as the years went on, I decided for a few reasons that they no longer served me. One was the expansion of my spiritual self, and the feeling of being a woman had nothing to do with breast implants.

The second reason is that I am a hairstylist, and since I use my arms so much - my implants had begun to migrate into my armpits and started to cause me discomfort. That was when I knew it was time to extract them. Dr. Ptak explained how he could repair them but first asked if I was ready for the physical change because my breasts obviously would not look the same. I answered, "Yes, I am." I trusted him once again, and the surgery was successful.

Dr. Ptak saw me through the different phases of my life while choosing what made me feel best at the time. I never regret getting the breast implants and getting them out was exactly what I needed when I needed it. I am so appreciative of having a doctor who was so supportive in all of my decisions, and I am so happy in my body now more than ever.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JUST MEETING DR. PTAK

5.0 stars - Written on March 8, 2019

I am a 69-year-old woman very experienced with cosmetic procedures. I feel that I could be considered an expert patient if there were such a thing. After extensive research, I chose Dr. Ptak for my complicated requests. Of course, the fact that he has been on the best doctors list for many years did help with my decision. I found Dr. Ptak to be the kindest and most empathetic doctor I have ever been to. No doctor ever took so much time with me thoroughly explaining my procedure options, potential downsides, and what results I could reasonably expect. I was requesting a lot while stressing my need to stay within my budget. I wanted both arms as thin as possible, reduced back and armpit fat, and lastly a reduction of a thick ugly scar that curved perfectly under my breasts. (This is how they did heart surgery 50 years ago). After surgery, I was so overwhelmed when I first took my bandages off that I actually cried with joy and appreciation. The existing scar was halved and less visible, looking more like a tight bra line. It was my beautiful arms and loss of back fat that thrilled me so. At the six weeks post op exam, I barely mentioned that one arm looked a little smaller and smoother than the other. I could have lived with it because to me it would have been unreasonable to expect absolute perfection considering all that he did that was perfect. This wonderful man immediately scheduled me for the small repairs and didn’t charge me a dime! I now knew that this amazingly skillful artist was a perfectionist and didn’t want me to leave until I was totally thrilled with my results. I highly recommend just meeting Dr. Ptak, and you will see how his calming manner and unrushed consultation sets him apart from the others. I know that my search is over.

VERY HAPPY CLIENT!

I’m a 30 something male and he performed a gynecomastia surgery on me. His bedside manner was great and calming. I didn’t want to go under general anesthesia for an elective procedure, and Dr. Ptak had a great solution for me.Everything went exactly as I was told it would and the procedure was pain free. Very happy client!

A WONDERFULLY SKILLED ARTIST

Before seeing Dr. Ptak, i was extremely nervous to have such an invasive surgery. After my consultation with him, I felt so much more at ease. He really made me feel like I was in great hands and I was so much more excited than nervous. My surgery and recovery went very well and my results are even better. I am so glad I chose Dr. Ptak as my surgeon and even happier with my body for the first time in my life!

I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE.

 5.0 stars - Written on August 18, 2016

I recently had a procedure at Dr Ptak’s office. From beginning to end, it was a simple and pleasant experience. I was given a quote over the phone for gynecomastia surgery and given a breif rundown of the procedure. I went in for a consult and got set for an in office procedure. The staff was very kind and Dr Ptak talked to me like a normal person. I very much appreciated that he didn’t talk down to me, or try to talk over my head. The procedure was done under conscious sedation and, over all, the pain was minimal and the procedure was done before I knew it. A month later, I am very very pleased with the results. They were very accommodating with my schedule and worked hard to fit my time limitations. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

DR. PTAK, THANK YOU SO MUCH. YOU HAVE TOUCHED AND CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER AND I WILL REMEMBER YOU EVERY TIME I LOOK IN THE MIRROR.

Dr. Ptak, thank you so much. You have touched and changed my life forever and I will remember you every time I look in the mirror.

I have so many words and numerous emotions. I think I have written this letter in my head about a hundred times. I went through numerous months researching doctors and procedures. I had prepared several pages of questions for my consultation from information I had gathered. When you came in the room and started talking, I just seemed to forget about all the notes and questions. I actually left them on the table. Only a few words were needed. Your presence gave a feeling of confidence and experience. Even on the day of surgery, while I was waiting for you, I was scared and nervous, but once you arrived, I was completely at ease.

I am looking forward to continuing my skincare with Dr. Ptak and his wonderful staff as I know you are by far, the very best.

JUST A SHORT NOTE TO THANK YOU FOR THE EXTRAS YOU DID FOR THIS LAST TIME AROUND

 5.0 stars - Written on August 10, 2015

Dear Dr. Ptak

Just a short note to thank you for the extras you did for this last time around (3rd process). My earlobes look ‘cute’ and I loved the gentle glycolic bath on my face, thank you. Now that I’m slightly more sentient, I discover these little treasures.

Kudos also to your choice of office staff. Kim is always a happy voice to hear when I call your office and Carrie, what can I say about Carrie other than she is a joy and a gem, so meticulous on whatever she is doing, be it paperwork to helping choose the right iron maiden, industrial strength, super spandex casing for whatever needs to be encouraged to comply with the bodily process involved.

My husband and I both enjoyed meeting and talking with Dr. Flick too.

Thank you again,

I HAVE MET SOME TALENTED DOCTORS ALONG THE WAY, BUT YOU ARE THE BEST!

Dr. Ptak

I wish you the happiest of holidays, I also would like to thank you for all you have done for me. You are a very talented doctor and a kind, warm person.

Having to undergo quite a few reconstructive cosmetic procedures since my weight loss of 120 lbs 41 years ago hasn’t been easy, but always worth it. I have met some talented doctors along the way, but you are the best! You get done the things I don’t even think can be done. The best part is your natural approach. I know you think of your patients helath first and foremost. Now that I am 56 and have to deal with the aging factor, not the aftermath of a 120 lb weight loss in 9 months, it is quite a different mindset for me. I am so happy you are here and understand all my concerns and keep me natural looking.
Best Always,

When I met you 4 ½ months ago, I never could have dreamed of the changes that could be made to my body.

All I can say now is – WOW – I am thrilled with every aspect of the “new” me. After all the dieting & exercising I had come to expect my shape (but hated it).

You have changed my life and I am forever grateful.

BRAVO, DR. PTAK, BRAVO!

Dear Dr. Ptak,

This is my “Love Letter” to you and your extraordinary staff! In a world where excellence is often hard to come by, I am always in awe when I witness it first hand-see it personally. I have been dazzled by your expertise, impressed by your superb staff and overwhelmed by the quality of medicine practiced by someone of your exceptional caliber.
Only after this magnificent surgery have I come to realize what you have given back to me, almost as a by-product of the surgical procedures. Joy, pure and simple joy! I am renewed, whole again and complete. Astonishing discoveries, for someone whose expectations were so very limited.

Thank you, Dr. Ptak, for being a part of the most positive experience of my life. I hear the scientist speak as I listen to your words. I see the artist’s work as I glance at my body. For me, this surgery has been very much like receiving an unexpected ticket to attend the Academy Awards, and then being awarded the Oscar as well!
Bravo, Dr. Ptak, Bravo!
