Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Quality Services
Dr. Vitenas is worth the price, time and effort in this kind of journey with your body. His expertise and bedside manner gave support in understanding what I wanted. His skill is beyond impressive, as there are no post-op complications or lasting symptoms. Highly recommended! Thank you!!

Your go to Dr for Breast Augmentation
I was incredibly nervous to have a breast augmentation. In fact it took me several years of extensive research to even book my consultations. I went to several Doctors and chose Dr. Vitenas based off his online photo gallery and rave reviews. My consultation was amazing. His patient coordinator Vivian made me feel so loved and comfortable throughout the entire process. Dr Vitenas took time to answer all of my questions and made me confident in moving forward with surgery. I am a mother of 3 and had deflated breasts. 5’10, 135lbs and not much to work with. I hoped for full, natural looking breasts and went with what he suggested 450cc silicone. I was nervous about the sizing but trusted his guidance and I am so glad I did! My breasts look and feel amazing. I have regained my self confidence and can’t wait to fill in my swimsuits this summer. If you’re thinking of having a breast augmentation this is your guy! The office is pristine, staff is lovely and Dr. is best in town!

Brilliant
Dr Vitenas is fantastic! My nose is beautiful thanks to him. He used fillers to make my nose look exactly as I hoped it always looked. I enjoy the professionalism of his staff as well as their kindness. The office reflects Dr. Vitenas’ caring approach to his patients individual needs as well. I have been a patient for over 5 years. You can feel confident and at ease knowing you are in the care of one of the greatest talents in his field.

Recently decided after a long while to finally go in for a breast augmentation. Already a mother of one and a long distance runner, I wanted to fuller breasts again that looked natural. From my phone conversation with my case manager through surgery, Dr. Vitenas and his staff have been thorough, professional, timely, and made me feel at ease every step of the way. My initial consultation was with my husband, a fellow physician, who immediately after our visit agreed that this was the surgeon he’d trust to do cosmetic work on his wife. Impeccable offices, staff, and seamless process.

I wanted a board-certified plastic surgeon with lots of experience who could provide natural looking results. He respectfully listened to my goals + completely and clearly answered all of my questions. Pre- and post-op instructions were clearly communicated in writing. Nurses called daily post-op to check on my progress and answer any questions I had. Dr. Vitenas recorded follow-up progress via documentation and photos. I am extremely happy with my results + highly recommend Dr. Vitenas!

When I came in for my consultation, Dr. Vitenas told me he'd do moderate profile with 304cc silicone implants. I asked him about going bigger and he said anything bigger would be too big. He wasn’t very informative and wasn’t very personable, but I still decided to go with him because of the great reviews, 25+ years of experience, and the beautiful photos of previous breast augmentations on his website. He’s very good at marketing himself. It didn’t bother me much because I’m a nurse and I unde

As a mom of two who breastfed each for a full year, my boobs needed attention. I wanted a natural look but also wanted the fullness. I researched for about a year before deciding to go with Dr.Vitenas. I am very happy with my look! I got the natural appearance and fullness I was looking for. I will say that if you're debating on sizes, go with the bigger one! You will get used to your new boobs right away!
