Dr. Martin and his partners at Elite Plastic Surgery aim to provide exceptional patient care, and he understands a critical part of this is making patients feel comfortable during the consultation process. The decisions a patient must make in preparation for surgery can be intimidating. Dr. Martin makes this process as easy as possible through detailed patient education, an easy-going bedside manner, and taking all the necessary time to ensure his patients understand what they can expect before, during, and after surgery, as well as in the years to come.
Dr. Martin was polite, friendly, professional, and extremely thorough. He made sure that I understood what was going on with my hand that I understood what all of my choices were for treatment options. While he gave me his professional guidance and opinion, he was willing to let me choose which of the options we ultimately went with.
Dr. Martin is very thorough, listens to me, and concerned about my concerns. He always tells me to call if something bothers me. I recommend him!
Excellent!
