The end result was a 5-year “wait and see” plan, with a few mildly invasive options for consideration in the future. Since it would have been quite easy to sell me on doing something that would put money in his pocket, this really impressed me. Dr. Wotowic is the sort of doctor who will spend the time to educate you, then offer his professional opinion, and will take your decision into account only after this has been accomplished. No hard sell, no “just trust me, I know best,” and no B.S. You do not find that very often these days, so I highly recommend that you consider Dr. Wotowic if you’re thinking about having reconstructive or cosmetic surgery, even if it’s just to weigh your options.

Most of us have heard the old saying, “Never ask a barber if you need a haircut. The answer is always yes.” That doesn’t apply to Dr. Wotowic, and I think it says volumes about his character and professionalism. I made an appointment to discuss my options regarding the aging of my face. By the time I left, I had a much better understanding of my options, but was basically talked OUT of doing anything. This wasn’t a rejection or a refusal on the part of Dr. Wotowic; it was simply the result of his helping me to get a proper perspective on the situation, and weighing the costs, benefits, and risks of the procedures. We discussed injectables, surgical procedures, side effects and risks, the psychological and cultural influences on our perception of aging and beauty, and even some options for a few scars I have from previous surgeries many years ago.

I had breast augmentation surgery ten years ago. My breasts have been beautiful and natural and matched my body perfectly since that first surgery. His close attention and focus on me during our initial consultation allowed him to accurately assess my needs, my preferences, my style, and my concerns. Recovery from breast implant surgery was smooth and uncomplicated.

My most recent consult with him ten years later was regarding breast reconstruction for an anticipated mastectomy. He has changed little in his style in making sure all aspects of the upcoming procedure, including the details of the anatomy and the recovery are completely understood by me. I have complete confidence in his expertise and technical ability and would follow his recommendation confidently. Thank you Dr. Wotowic.

I have been a patient of Dr. Wotowic’s for over 15 years for both reconstructive and cosmetic concerns. Prior to every procedure, I have been completely and thoroughly informed about my diagnosis and all available treatments. His thorough and relaxed manner allowed me to completely understand all aspects of the operative sequence. Most importantly, I felt my detailed concerns were heard and, ultimately, my expectations were met if not exceeded. He is a master of his craft, a gifted diagnostician, and a gifted surgeon. I recommend him with enthusiasm and without any reservation.

I have claustrophobic issues and Dr. Wotowic worked with me on procedures and bandaging to ease these feelings as much as possible. Any fears or limitations I had were met with concern and cooperation does not distain or frustration. Excellent surgeon. Well skilled. I trust him completely.

Dr Wotowic performed my reconstruction surgeries after a bilateral mastectomy, due to breast cancer. I felt very comfortable with Dr Wotowic. You could tell how much he really cared. The results are amazing. I would recommend Dr Wotowic to anyone. Great surgeon with a caring personality.

After working in the medical field for many years I find Dr Wotowic’s one of the most gentle, compassionate and experienced physicians I’ve had the pleasure to meet. He came highly recommended for the facelift and blepharoplasty I was contemplating. He made sure I didn’t rush my decision and that I took all the time I needed to make the right decision for me. His main concern was that I look natural and I was happy. He didn’t want my mouth and skin to be overly stretched. Dr Wotowic’s did my surgery and took so much time with me. He said I was his main concern and he would take many hours to get results that we’d both be happy with. He was absolutely correct. My surgery was quite lengthy, but I already see results I am so happy with. His post op care is wonderful! He was gentle and made me forget I still hurt. He was so excited to show me the results! It’s so natural! I can’t believe I could look like this again. I have seen others with scarring under their chin and nerve numbness on the side of their face, months after surgery. I have neither! This was a difficult surgery, but Dr Wotowic is the greatest. From start to finish I give him an A +

Dr. Wotowic is an excellent surgeon. My abdominoplasty turned out perfectly, and the scar is very thin. His staff are helpful and polite.

Always hard to find a good surgeon you could trust, especially a plastic surgeon, so I was looking for a referral for quite some time. Finally, my friend mentioned his name and said she had several other friends who were very happy with Dr. Wotowic’s job. I am very pleased with my breast reduction surgery.

Many years after having implants, I found myself with a ruptured implant due to a fall. My internist referred me to Dr. Wotowic. I could tell from our initial meeting that he was the doctor that I wanted to take care of removal and reconstruction. He never rushes you through anything. He explains all of the options and is good to respond if you have any questions before and after the procedure. Everything went as he had said it would and now 3 months post op I am so pleased with the results. He is so much more than a plastic surgeon. He is knowledgeable about all medical problems that might arise and very helpful in solving them. Also, he is easy to talk to and really listens to your concerns. He is not out to make a fast buck; he wants what’s best for you. Never pushy.
