Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I cannot express how knowledgeable and caring Dr. Metzinger is. I recently had a procedure with him and his care and team are the best I have ever encountered. I am never rushed away and everyone on his team show compassion for me each visit. He was a God sent. I am still under his care and I reccomend him with the highest respect. I can't wait to heal and see him do some other things I would like. Bless all of you at Aesthetics. Kakeisha

Dr. Metzinger and his staff are top notch. I had an extensive breast reduction surgery in December (took almost 6 hours) and knew my life was changed for the better immediately following. I met with Dr. Metzinger for a consultation and was quickly impressed with his detailed questions on my medical history and knew he would be the doctor for me. I'm almost one year post-surgery and recommend Dr. Metzinger to almost every person I know. I rely heavily on reviews and recommendations from others

Dr. Metzinger and his team at Aesthetics Surgical Associates are among some of the best talent in the field. From the first phone conversation with the front desk to my thorough consult, I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. Dr. Metzinger exudes the utmost confidence with his pleasant demeanor and wealth of knowledge. This exceptional experience is why I continue all of my skincare and cosmetics needs with his practice.

Dr. Metzinger and his staff are friendly, kind, fun, patient and knowledgeable. I have enjoyed being in the office with all of them. My procedure was significantly easier and less painful than I expected, and with better results. I highly recommend Dr. Metzinger.

He literally gave me my life back! I have been battling fibromyalgia for 10 yrs. I had to quit my job as a respiratory therapist & get on disability. My marriage of 22 yrs ended. I was with my mom at her appt with Dr Metzinger, & we just started chatting about implants.When I told him that I had mine since 1995, he peered at me over his glasses & educated me on the warranties back then & showed me pics of contaminated implants! He & his staff were so courteous & informative.Now I'm LIVING again!

I had a cyst on my neck and had to have cut out. Dr. Metzinger made sure I came back after stiches dissolved a third time to make sure everything was fine. Very impressed with the fact that he took the time to make sure several months later it went well. I would highly recommend Dr. Met zinger.:)

I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Metzinger for your surgery needs! His staff and himself have been super professional and super nice. From the minute I walked through the door I have been treated like their top priority. Dr. Metzinger spends plenty of time with me and always asks me many many times throughout my visits if I have any questions. He does not walk in the door and is out the door in five minutes like most doctors. He is not about making money either, he cares about his patients health.
