Patient Reviews
Jan 13, 2024
I first met Dr. Wells when my mother needed reconstructive surgery after breast cancer. I was impressed with her knowledge confidence and reputation -Dr Wells did great job with my mom‘s issues. Many years later I went to see her for a breast lift and new implants ; she did perfect work & my breasts look great . Dr. Wells and her staff took the time to really talk to me so I understood every step of the way. Highly recommend her! It’s critically important to have a top surgeon. I previously had a poor experience with another doctor that didn’t have as good of results . Not all physicians have the same skill level. A+ Dr Karen Wells
