“Incredibly honest and transparent...”
I had an amazing experience with Dr. Darren Smith from start to finish. From the initial consultation, he was incredibly transparent and honest, which can be rare. I came in thinking I needed a brachioplasty, which is more invasive and expensive, but Dr. Smith explained that arm lipo would be enough to give me the results I wanted. He also told me I didn’t need chin lipo, which showed me he truly puts the patient first.

Experience Dr. Darren Smith’s Consultation
60 minutes of personalized planning with Dr. Smith to design your transformation.
After meeting with several doctors I read about Dr. Smith and reluctantly made an appointment. You see, at this point, I had met with several doctors. I met with Dr. Smith and was immediately sold based on the expectations he set for himself. His level of confidence in how satisfied I would be was infectious and I knew he was the one.
The ladies - Nurse Katie, Rachel & Fotini...there are simply no words to describe them. I never ever felt alone with them as part of my team. I will be forever grateful to this office and willing to speak to anyone who would like additional details on Dr Smith before making a decision.
