My overall experience was highly satisfactory. Considering the nature of the procedure, and the many doubts and concerns that come with that (Can I afford it? How long will I be out of work? How long will I be unable to workout like I was?), the nursing staff and Dr. Bauer answered all those questions, easing or eliminating my concerns. I was able to feel confident in every part of the process with their assistance. Save for one particular post-op visit where there was an outrageous wait time in the exam room (about one hour, after the nurse said the doctor would be in in a few minutes), I felt like my time and concerns were a priority.

Words cannot explain on how pleased with…

Words cannot explain on how pleased with my decision to choose Dr. Fardo at the Swan Center. First off I work overseas and they were very accommodating and helpful throughout the whole process. The patient coordinator is an angel she kept in touch with me through the whole process and was so sweet. The nurses are just as pleasant and just seeing their smiling faces made me feel at ease and calm. They are so knowledgeable and friendly it’s like your talking to a friend. And Dr. Fardo is just the best. He took the time to actually listen to what I wanted and what I didn’t want. At first I wanted Lipo as well by he was honest with me and told me that I wouldn’t see much of a difference because I didn’t have much fat. That alone made me extremely pleased because most doctors would’ve let you waste your money on an unnecessary procedure. The anesthesiologist was so comforting and very helpful with putting my mind at ease right before the procedure that all my nerves were almost gone. Dr. Fardo came in just before the surgery to clarify what I wanted and what I didn’t want so that everything would go perfectly. I am sooooooooo pleased with my results they are exactly what I want and then more. I’ve had surgery before and I’ve never had such a pleasant experience such as this. The Swan Center made me feel like family and not just another patient. If I want anything else done I will make the trip back to The Swan Center!The single best thing about my experience were the staff and doctor. Nothing compares to good customer service and they delivered that plus more. The results were amazing but the staff made this experience one to never forget!

My overall experience was fantastic

The staff before and during my surgery were excellently trained and friendly. Dr. Fardo was gentle, kind, and most importantly straightforward. He was able to best suggest what would work for me, even with my difficulty with English, he was able to understand what I wanted. Honest, kind, and gentle. Loved my experience overall. I feel extremely confident now and wish I would have done this years ago. I’m very happy with the result, it’s beyond my expectations.

I had a botched breast augmentation in 2009. Following that, I worked with multiple surgeons to try to correct the damage that was done, with each surgery resulting in even more damage. I eventually gave up hope that I would ever be able to have the damage reversed, and this had a horrible effect on my self confidence. For ten years, I hated looking in the mirror to the point that I would even bathe in the dark so that I did not have to see my breasts. I was unable to wear many types of clothing, and a bathing suit top was out of the question. This all changed when I met Dr. Bauer and his staff. I immediately felt comfortable with him and his staff, and I was very impressed with his warmth, professionalism, and knowledge. For YEARS after my botched job, I did research all over the country to try to find a doctor with the skill level to be able to correct my botched procedure, and I truly believe that Dr. Bauer’s expertise FAR exceeds any other surgeon. My results are AMAZING. I never thought I would find anyone who could correct the damage that was done. Not only did he correct it, but my breasts are better then they ever were before the damage! My breasts look and feel natural! Even after the surgery, Dr. Bauer and his staff were dedicated to making sure I was healing properly and my well being! My self-confidence has been restored because of Dr. Bauer, and I will be forever grateful to him and his staff. I highly recommend him to anyone. His work is the best! The best thing about this surgical procedure is being able to look in the mirror again without crying. I hated my body for ten years due to the botched breast augmentation I had prior to Dr. Bauer. He restored my confidence, and I feel like a new woman.

Dr Fardo takes the time to understand what you want and make adjustments based on your skin. He never makes you look lumpy just naturally younger. He is very honest and will tell you if you don’t need work.

Dr. Bauer and his team were amazing! Each person I interacted with had great bedside manner and were easy to talk to and professional. Even when I felt a little nervous and light-headed about getting my stitches out, the staff helped me lay down and even brought me water and chocolate 🙂 My results are very natural ( my #1 priority ) and I still can’t even believe that I had augmentation because it feels like my body has always been this way. Amazing staff and amazing results!!
