Patient Testimonials
"My initial contact with Hess Plastic Surgery was courteous and helpful, Katie was super friendly. All of my questions were answered -- the accreditation of the surgeon and facility are very important to me. The brochures were very informative as well as the internet.
I read Dr. Hess' blog which answered many questions and put me at ease. I did consider another plastic surgery office but yours was warm and fuzzy, took time to explain, I didn't feel rushed and you didnÕt suggest other "procedures" you thought I needed. Also, you were honest about breast augmentation size and didn't try to make me go larger.
The financial arrangements and nursing staff were easily accessible if I had questions or concerns. The pre-operative package was fantastic! The pre and post-operative care met all of my needs. I feel so happy about my surgical results, I wish I had done it sooner.
This was a fantastic experience, great office, great surroundings. Calm, patient, and took a lot of time with me to explain everything. If I am in need of plastic surgery in the future I will return to Hess Plastic Surgery and refer Dr. Hess to my friends and relatives.
Everything was positive, from my initial phone call with Katie, very friendly. Dr. Hess made me feel very comfortable." --DW
“Dr. Hess put me at ease straight away. He was very generous with his time and shared his abundance of knowledge in his field. What I loved about him was not only his skills and sense of humor, but his honesty. If there was something he felt someone else could do with more expertise, he referred you to that doctor for that specific procedure. A fabulous quality for a surgeon to have! I recommend him highly!!” PG

“I was recently at your Emergency Room. I wanted to thank the hospital and the staff that engaged in my recovery on that evening July 8, 2005. To Julie Day, PA I never had the chance to engage with you but I was told that you were concerned about my condition. I want to thank you for your genuine concern. To Jonathon Gorbach, MD I would also like to thank you for your commitment in making sure I was in good hands before you had to leave and take care of additional patients that were obviously under your care. To Christopher Hess, MD I want to thank you sincerely for taking the time to make sure that my face would repair in a manner that was similar to the one I had before you met me. I understand that your staff is always tasked more than what it should be, but I felt that you guys took a great deal of time and care in making sure that I was comfortable and that my wounds were attended to in a manner that would allow me to resume my day to day work activities. I can't say enough that would thank you in a proper way, but I do appreciate your effort in taking care of me. Your hospital was genuine in their concern and I can't thank you enough. To all of the above that cared for me, Thank You So Very Much it won't be soon forgotten. I think too often your services go unrewarded and I feel you're a great attribute to your profession." Northern Virginia Resident, July 2005”

“The whole procedure was a scary one, but from the beginning Dr. Hess explained everything step by step and relieved the pre-surgery fears that we had. After he was soothing and available. Overall, the experience was positive and successful” LMR
“It was my idea to have the “enhancement” surgery. I researched for months and met with numerous doctors, but after meeting Dr. Hess and having a consultation, I booked the surgery within a week. As the big day approached I was not nervous as all my questions had been answered. After the surgery, I had practically no pain and went back to work within a few days. My only “side affect” was bigger bust and my only complaint was that I didn’t have this done earlier. I feel so much better and I love the fact that these look so natural since people don’t believe me when I tell them they’re implants. This really couldn’t have been a better experience.” AKK
“When I first came to Dr. Hess’ office, I entered in a fragile state physically and emotionally. To my relief, I left feeling reassured and most of all hopeful. And Dr. Hess and his staff did meet my expectations. I have had excellent care and results.” KK
“On April 24, 2009 Dr. Hess gave me my first ever Botox injection. He first thoroughly cleaned and disinfected the area. The treatment itself was simple-five injections between my brows. There was only minor discomfort. Within hours, I could see a difference. When I tried to frown, the area was noticeably smoother. By the following day, my '11’s' were completely gone!” SS
“I Had the VI peel treatment done in April 2009 and loved my results! First Dr. Hess applied the acetone which was the only unpleasant part in the entire process due to the very strong odor. After the peel was applied, I only felt a slight tingling sensation. No timing or neutralizing was needed. When I left the office all I felt was like a sunburn. The next day my skin felt and looked very tight and tan. On day three, the skin around my mouth started to peel. The following day was when the peeling was at it’s worst. On the fifth day, the skin on the outer portion of my face (hairline, cheeks and chin) started to slough off. By the end of the week, my skin texture was very soft and smooth, and the pores were refined. I would definitely do this peel again to get my skin looking flawless! Mahalo Dr. Hess!” SS
“I am very satisfied with the information I received at my consultation. As I have told Dr. Hess before, I went to different plastic surgeons and I felt comfident with going with Dr. Hess. He seemed very knowledgeable and experienced so I’m glad I chose the right surgeon. Katie was also very friendly(front desk).” AK
“The pre-operative package and post-op instructions were extremely thorough. The pre/post operative care met my needs. The revision of previous surgery provided a much improved result by Dr. Hess. Some issues may need even further procedures. Dr. Hess is talented, professional and an extremely nice man. There is nothing I can think of that can be done to improve my experience. Dr. Hess is very honest on true results that can be achieved with surgery. I appreciate his forth right most of all (not to mention his skills).” RC
