Patient Testimonials 4

I had the pleasure of working for Spiro Plastic Surgery for over 4 years as one of Dr. Spiro’s registered nurses.  I wanted to take the time to write a testimonial for Dr. Spiro and his staff because I think that it’s valuable for prospective patients to know just what they are getting in to when they choose Spiro Plastic Surgery from the hindsight of a former insider.

Dr. Spiro is a surgeon unlike any other.  Sure, his expert artistry makes him a standout, but you will be hard pressed to find another doctor as passionate about your overall experience.  He takes in to account absolutely everything about each and every single one of his patients to make sure that their experience and outcome is nothing but the best.  He collaborates with each member of his staff to ensure this.

His staff are incredible and his turn over is low.  A lot of people want to know, “How is it working for Dr. Spiro? He seems like he would be hard to work for because he is such a perfectionist.”  I heard this countless times in my years there.  I can tell you with complete honesty… It was highly satisfying.  It’s not “hard” working for a perfectionist.  It was challenging at times because we as an entire staff put in long hours.  You want to work for a perfectionist especially if you are a perfectionist yourself.  I never once had to go home and ask myself if anything that Dr. Spiro did was unethical or even in the least bit not in a patient’s best interest.  It’s refreshing to work for a surgeon of that moral standard and extremely gratifying as nurse to know that you are part of a team that cares so deeply about patient safety and satisfaction.

The team is made up of caring and smart women who “hold your hand” through your entire surgical experience.  Like Dr. Spiro, they are all perfectionists. They don’t do that because it’s “their job.”  They do that because that’s the type of people that they are.  You can imagine this group of women all as top notch leaders who have come together to form a doctor’s dream team.  I can’t say enough good things about them and literally am teary eyed when I think about how much I miss them.  They are a team unlike no other.

So what else do you need to know about Dr. Spiro?  Yes, he’s a talented and much sought after plastic surgeon. Yes, he’s busy and it can be difficult to schedule a consult with him… He’s worth the wait.  But don’t worry if you realize that you need a breast augmentation just 3 months before your wedding; his staff will somehow miraculously fit you in and you will be well taken care of. Yes, his staff is without a doubt hands down smart, friendly, and approachable.  Yes, he runs behind sometimes… Don’t you want your surgeon to take as much time with you as you require and answer all of your questions?  Yes, he does run ahead of schedule sometimes. No, you won’t be pressured to have surgery by Dr. Spiro or any of his staff.  That’s not Dr. Spiro’s practice.  Take a look at his “before and after;” his work speaks for itself.

I know that this testimonial sounds too good to be true.  It’s really not.  I left the practice on my own free will to move to Florida with much support and well wishes from Dr. Spiro and his staff.  I wrote this on my own accord, without any prompting or compensation.  If you are a prospective patient, you should know that this is how a former employee feels about a practice and surgeon that she worked for.  I am happy to write that I have found a rewarding position as an RN in Florida, but I have Dr. Spiro and his staff to thank for teaching me about extraordinary care in plastic and reconstructive surgery.

The bottom line: this is a very gifted man with an extraordinary talent for transforming lives through plastic and reconstructive surgery who has chosen an exceptional staff.
