I was very pleased with the result of Dr. Robert D. Galiano's work and to be honest I did not expect it to be at such a high level that it exceeded all my expectations. I came for a scar revision procedure on an old scar on my face that had bothered me almost my entire conscious life. I had previously undergone many unsuccessful procedures with different doctors to improve its appearance, but this doctor put an end to all my suffering and made my life's dream come true. Many thanks to the doctor, I bow low to him for the superbly done jewelry work and for his magic hands.

I was a patient at Northwestern Plastic Surgery 10 years ago for reconstruction after a double mastectomy. Ten years later, I was feeling anxious about some problems with my implants. This was my first meeting with Dr. Galiano, and he immediately put me at ease with his manner and professionalism. He was so easy to talk with, and explained everything so well. Great doctor. I feel very at ease having him do my next procedure.

He is the best doctor after 2 years of seeing several plastic surgeons, none of them had a solution, and with him in just one appointment he made a plan for my son's recovery and in less than 2 months my son is completely well. He is an excellent doctor, very professional and above all a very good human being.

Dr. Galiano was personable, respectful and caring. He made sure to explain the next procedure in detail and that mine and my family's questions were answered. He did not seem rushed but was thorough in explaining his approach while also being respectful to other physicians and directing questions that were more appropriate to them rather than speak for them.
