Very professional courteous staff. Dr. Garza was very informative about my procedure and detailed. Very impressed
Our appointment had been cancelled, but my wife did not get the voicemail. They worked us in on the day of the original appt, which was a huge help, as we had traveled 5 hours to get there. Very honest and professional staff. Very in-depth explanation of my disabled wife's needs.
Dr. Garza was very helpful and knowledgeable about my concerns. He explained everything in a way that was very understandable. I would highly recommend him. His nurse was very polite and showed care as well. The front receptionist however could use some social skills.
Dr. Garza is very professional and knowledgeable in his field. He definitely utilizes his active listening skills. His humbleness and humor makes you feel so at ease when talking about an uncomfortable situation. My visit with him was great!
My office visit was expedient, and I found the reception staff very friendly. The office was bright and very clean, it was a very comfortable office to be in. I had no trouble getting an appointment. Dr. Garza is a fantastic doctor! He has a great personality and wonderful bedside manner, he treated my condition in a very professional manner, I was very pleased with the results! I would highly recommend him without reservation to anyone seeking a quality, well trained plastic surgeon!
Extremely knowledgeable. He was able to make an assessment of my problem quickly and outline all of my options thoroughly. Spent time with me as a patient and made me feel very comfortable. Would highly recommend.
So far so good. Informative and kind. Understanding in a difficult situation. Worked with my general surgeon and my schedule to ensure my surgery is done in a timely manner.
Have yer to have my surgery but I’m confident he will not disappoint.
Dr. Garza is a knowledgeable, skilled and caring surgeon. He always takes the time to listen to the patient's concerns. No matter how busy his schedule, he does not rush his patients. I have had two surgeries with him and have complete confidence and Trust in his judgment and integrity. I found his calm, honest manner reassuring
He ruined my life. Period. This man does NOT know what he's doing. When I say he ruined my life I mean it literally. I've been paying for his ineptness for years and will till the day I die. STAY AWAY FROM HIM!
Dr. Garza performed a simple procedure on my abdomen. What should have been a 1-inch incision was enlarged to 2.5” when it was completely unnecessary. He closed the incision incredibly poorly, leaving a ¾” high, 4” long ridge protruding from my abdomen. In the follow-up visit, he said that “he could fix it”. In the second procedure, he once again closed the incision incorrectly and incredibly poorly, making the HIDEOUS scar much worse. He NEVER apologized and did not return my calls for weeks.
Dr. Garza is an outstanding doctor. He went above and beyond to make sure I had the proper care while recovering from reconstruction surgery. The surgery went well but my recovery was very difficult due to having a compromised immunity system. Dr. Garza was called to the hospital to check on me numerous times after seeing me earlier during the day. He had to even do an unexpected emergency surgery around 11:00 at night. He is a wonderful all around doctor that is a compassionate and caring man.
Dr. Garza is a horrible doctor, I would never recommend him to any one.
I ruined my life and caused infections and lied and never did anything but
cover his own self.
I would NEVER recommend him to anyone! After 2 extremely botched surgeries, He had the audacity to try and make me feel like it was my fault! HE placed my implants under my clavicle and in my armpit area the first surgery, The lift that he did was a complete failure. The second surgery, he told me that he had to do another lift and replace the implants. 10 mins before surgery, He looked me in the eyes and LIED to my face. He did not do the lift because "He changed his mind". He is an evil man!
