I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Rafael Gottenger for the outstanding care and surgical expertise he provided during such an important chapter of my life.
On November 20, Dr. Gottenger performed my mastopexy, and on February 12, following my bilateral mastectomy, he completed my breast reconstruction with implants. From the very beginning of my journey, he demonstrated not only exceptional skill, but also genuine compassion and understanding.
Breast reconstruction after a mastectomy is deeply personal and emotional. Dr. Gottenger took the time to explain the process thoroughly, discuss expectations, and answer every question with patience and care. He made me feel informed, safe, and confident in every decision. His calm and reassuring presence brought me peace during a time that could have easily felt overwhelming.
His attention to detail and commitment to achieving beautiful, natural results are remarkable. The reconstruction exceeded my expectations, and I feel physically restored and emotionally empowered. What truly sets Dr. Gottenger apart is that he treats you as a whole person, not just a procedure. He leads with both excellence and heart.
His team is equally professional, attentive, and supportive throughout the entire process — from consultations to post-operative care.
If you are looking for a reconstructive surgeon who combines artistry, precision, and compassion, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Rafael Gottenger. I will always be thankful for his care and for the confidence he helped restore in me.
With sincere gratitude,
Dulce Vidal-Hernandez 💖
