Patient Testimonials

I had been considering a breast augmentation for many years. As much as I desired the surgery, I had several reservations. I did not want to look operated on, and wanted an appearance that was proportionate to my small frame and lifestyle. After debating the pros and cons, I decided to research qualified plastic surgeons. I asked my other doctors for referrals, looked through local periodicals, asked friends if they knew anyone with positive surgical experiences, and read numerous physicians' websites. I selected my favorites and went in for consultations with all of them. I asked very specific questions that were important to me. I wanted to make sure the physician was board certified in plastic surgery, and not someone who performs cosmetic surgery but is not certified to do so. I thought it was vital to have an experienced plastic surgeon that had been in practice for over ten years. It was also important for me to learn how many cases of my specific surgery the doctor performed annually, and over the course of their career, so I could be comfortable with making such a major decision. I did not want to take any risks. When I met Dr. Flint I knew that I was in the right qualified hands. She impressed me with her honesty and sincerity. We discussed how my case was unique and what I should expect as a result. I truly felt she listened to my concerns and understood them more than any other plastic surgeon I met with. She promised to make herself available for any further questions I would have, and she delivered on that promise. It has now been over a year since I had my surgery. Every day when I would get dressed, I used to be uncomfortable with my body. Now the body part that I liked the least has become one of my favorites. Those negative thoughts no longer cross my mind. It has changed my life in such a positive way. My only wish is that I would have made this decision years ago. I would highly recommend Dr. Flint and her superb staff to anyone interested in plastic surgery.

My decision to even have plastic surgery was not an easy one for me. I tend to be a perfectionist, and I was concerned that I could actually look worse rather than better. I had seen pictures of a number of famous people with whom I would not trade places.

I had visited Dr. Flint previously for collagen injections, and though she was naturally my first choice for surgery (should I decide to have it), I was not convinced until I spoke confidentially with her nurse at that time, Denise. Her own husband is an orthopedic surgeon, and he spoke very highly of Dr. Flint in the operating room and of her reputation. I also asked friends about other doctors, their methods and workmanship. I determined that I definitely wanted a surgeon who would keep me in a hospital overnight. In all of my research, I never heard one negative comment regarding Dr. Flint’s surgical expertise.

Dr. Flint’s honesty and straight forward approach was refreshing. She told me what to expect, how to prepare for surgery and how to take care of myself after the procedure. We also discussed 'our' goals. I wanted to look rested and refreshed, not startled or surprised. She favored a natural look and I liked that.

Six months following my surgery during my yearly physical, my internist at Mayo Clinic examined my scars, complimented me on my results and said I should be very happy. He was impressed; he wanted to know who had done my work. A year after my procedure, my OB/GYN, of whom I had been a patient for twenty-one years, was surprised when I told him of my decision. He said that he thought I had just been on an extended vacation. He too examined my scars, looked closely at the surgical sites and was very impressed. He too said I should be really happy. I am.

I honestly can’t speak positively enough about the office staff. They make a terrific team, and as a patient, I benefited directly from their patience, their helpful attitude and most especially their friendliness. I so appreciate the ambiance in the office; I can always count on it. I consider all of them friends now – a totally unexpected bonus for a plastic surgery procedure!

Dear Doctor Flint,

It has been a year now since I have had plastic surgery that you performed. I would like you to know that I am very pleased with my plastic surgery experience. I feel more confident and more at peace with myself than I ever have. I had a breast augmentation, lift, tummy tuck and liposuction. I decided to have you as my surgeon after talking to my medical doctors that I have been seeing for years. I had discussed with them that I was going to use you. Every doctor and every one I knew in the medical field told me that you were an excellent choice. You were very well known and had an excellent reputation. I also have a friend you performed a breast reduction for.

Your office staff was very helpful and caring. They went out of their way to make me feel comfortable with any and all questions I had before, during and after surgery. I felt I was in the best of care at the Greenbaum Hospital. I felt very relaxed with the anesthesiologist as he listened to my concerns regarding some medications I am allergic to and made me feel at ease with the surgery. I felt very comfortable knowing that you hand picked these doctors as they play a very important role in the surgery. Once again because of your reputation I felt I made the best decision.

If I ever decide to have plastic surgery in the future I will definitely contact you.

Yours truly,
Mimi

I used Dr. Flint for my face and breast surgery. I was new to the Valley. I did quite a bit of research on the net. I spoke with other Doctors. I went on a number of interviews. I always asked for a call back from a former patient. Dr. Flint 's patients were the best reference.

I also checked the Phoenix Mag. for the "Top Doc's"

The office visit before the surgery was concise and to the point. I received all the information. It was all explained by the staff. The Staff is WONDERFUL.

After the procedure, I would call the office, and in record time my questions were all answered. I would email Dr. Flint, and in minutes, I had a reply! I could ALWAYS reach Dr. Flint or her staff.
