Mar 28, 2017
Wonderful experience start to finish. Went in for cosmetic consult. Advice was given after thorough evaluation. I went with Dr. Velargo's recommendd procedure --even though it was much less expensive and less invasive than the one I was originally inquiring about-- and couldn't be happier with the results! Also, top notch staff! Would recommend to anyone!
