Dr. Greco and his staff were amazing to me for my first ever surgery! From consult, what to expect, day before surgery personal phone call, day of surgery and phone call that evening. I had a reduction and a lift, everything healed beautifully! He made me feel comfortable and at ease. I look forward to my next surgery with him later this year. :)

Dr. Greco and his staff went above and beyond. From start to finish, I felt seen, heard and comfortable. From the personal phone calls to check-in post op from Dr. Greco to the accessibility of his nurses and staff, I felt taken care of and cared about. I have and will continue to refer him to friends. Great experience!

I came to Dr. Greco for a breast augmentation, and had the best consultation by him and his staff. As fate would have it, the day of surgery, they discovered I was pregnant right before getting my IV! Dr. Greco and all of his staff were sharing the joy and the irony of that moment with my husband and I, and it is a tale we like to tell because of how genuine they were! Fast forward a year and a half, and I return to his office for a breast augmentation because I knew there was no other doctor I wanted to be performing this procedure. Luckily, I wasn’t pregnant this time, so I went through with the surgery and have never been happier with any other results! Not only is Dr. Greco honest, trustworthy, and knowledgeable, but his bedside manner is exceptional. His nurses and staff answered any and all questions I had, and all of them, including Dr. Greco himself, called and checked on me post surgery—even asking about my daughter! I will never use any other plastic surgeon for any of my cosmetic needs. HIGHLY recommend him and his team!

Doctor is short and unfriendly. Evidently it’s time to retire. Known him for years and he is not the same compassionate friendly physician I used in the past

Dr. Greco performed my breast lift and augmentation after having had gastric bypass, 5 years prior. About five years after that, I was diagnosed with DCIS (breast cancer) in the left breast. I had to have a lumpectomy and radiation. I waited until I was well past that 5 years cancer-free mark. Almost 7 years from the first surgery, I sought out Dr. Greco to perform my reconstruction and he found that my left implant had ruptured (possibly due to the radiation). My results have been phenomenal, in my opinion! I have very little scarring, and look almost completely normal. I have retained sensation in both nipples, after both surgeries that required incisions around the areola, vertically down from the breast crease and horizontally along the breast crease. While I was going to have my needed corrective breast surgery, I decided to get a neck lift to rid myself of the hereditary sagging neck, that was exacerbated after having gastric bypass 15 years prior and being almost 50 years old.; the results were phenomenal! My photos can attest to the statements I have made! I'd be happy to share my experience with anyone who is concerned and would like to speak to the person behind those before and after photos. You bet that I agreed to have my photos shared for others who are considering the procedures and attesting to my results from this amazing surgeon, his nurses, and staff! I'm hoping for a future around the world procedure, one day. Dr. Greco will be my surgeon, God willing!

Very knowledgeable doctor and thrusting person, he knows and love what he is going .the staff is very professional and helpful. Dr dreco gave me my confidence back! He made my second breast augmentation with lift . He corrected my breast without any scar left, also he corrected my uneven areola . After my prior doctor did a no good job and a long searching for a good doctor , I am so glad to found Greco! He gave me my confidence back!

At this point I am a little over three months post op breast augmentation with lift and implants. I could not be happier with the results. Scars are healing and they are quit settled. From the initial consultation, surgery and follow up Dr. Greco and his staff have answered all my questions and have taken great care of me and any questions or concerns. Would definitely recommend and have another procedure done!

After one month post breast reduction, I feel great due to Dr. Greco's skill as a surgeon. I should have had the surgery year's ago but just didn't get around to doing it. Dr. Greco and his staff are professional, supportive and knowledgeable. They answered every question I had and guided me through the procedure from the day of admission to the day to recovery. I would highly recommend Dr. Greco to my friends and relatives if you are thinking about having a procedure. After having my breast reduction, my neck and shoulder pain are gone, I can wear my clothes with confidence and the feeling that my body was malformed has gone. During the first week of recovery after my surgery, I had moderate pain, but around the 6th day, the pain was started to subside. As a professional photographer, it is much easier to handle my camera equipment as well. My breasts are perfect and Dr. Greco achieved the desired size I wanted exactly. They are unbelievably firm and I am so happy I decided to have the procedure. I am lucky Dr. Brian Anderson recommended Dr. Greco to me.
