"Thank you so much for the angelic way you take care of me and those I love so dearly! Being taken care of so compassionately and gently and with a splash of humor makes what could be a miserable experience (like stitches) almost enjoyable!"

"When I first came to you I had a dream that I have secretly carried my entire adult life. In my assumption that I couldn't have it all, yet unable to release it, I telepathically "willed" you to "know" my dreams - silly, poignant. I dutifully entered surgery knowing that my body would be greatly improved and that I would be pleased, chastizing myself to suppress that damn dream. Upon awakening from surgery somehow I just knew. My hands began to glide over my body feeling my dream. I was washed with joy, magic had happened, and I did have telepathic abilities! Presently, I'm staying the course of recovery tolerating lumpy, sore bruises and swollen to my former plumpness, trying to control the giddy delight of what I know I will be in three months."

"I wish to extend my appreciation to you and your staff for your attention and expertise during my reconstructive surgery performed at your center earlier this month. It was a refreshing change from the usual medical encounter to which I have grown accustomed. To me, the skill and dedication of you and your staff are models of care and compassion I wish all of you a happy holiday"

"I would like to express my sincere appreciation for your generosity of your time as well as the kindness that you have bestowed upon me. Throughout my life, I have always battled with my hips, buttocks and legs. The fact that you were so receptive in bringing my back in a second time to achieve that "straight line" along my hips, means more to me than I can express. I feel very fortunate to have a surgeon like you who is not only talented in his "art work", but who also has a very big heart."

"I just wanted to let you know how lucky I feel that our paths crossed and that you were my surgeon. From the time I first met you I felt completely at ease with all the unknowns. During our initial meeting you said two things that I have always believed: You have to go with your own gut feelings and this is a leap of faith. I put my trust in you and was well rewarded by the results of your talent. You have put a brightness back in me and I thank you."

"I am writing this letter to let you know how delighted I am with the results of the two procedures performed on me at The Austin-Weston Center by you, Dr. Sigal. I had an abdominoplasty, a major effort for Dr. Sigal considering the state of my former figure, and this year in February you, Dr. Sigal, gave me a new face. Just getting dressed and catching my reflection in a mirror is a daily joy and reminder of the wonderful treatment I received and continued to receive at your establishment, delivered with sincere and professional concern for my well-being. I also want to congratulate you on having collected a superb support staff, i.e., Rona, Kathy, Robyn, Carolyn, Cameron, Kristen, Mary, among others, who are unfailingly helpful, polite and charming at all times. Whenever an opportunity presents itself to recommend cosmetic surgery I mention your offices and show myself off, since I am already a walking advertisement. I have no qualms people knowing that I have been "surgically altered" and, if suitable, you can use me as an example any time."

"It’s been 3 ½ weeks since you performed a tummy tuck and flank liposuction procedure on me. Your talent as a surgeon is evident every time I look in the mirror and hardly recognize myself! I can’t begin to thank you and your staff enough for all you’ve done for me. The flower arrangement I received from your center was beautiful and much appreciated. Your bedside manner is impeccable and I’ll miss not seeing you on a regular basis. Thanks again for making my life’s journey so much better! "

"I am writing this letter on the afternoon of my post-op visit to your office. After I left the Austin-Weston Center today, I ended up sitting in our car and crying--not because I was upset, but because I was so deeply relieved. With one glimpse of my "before" photos in your office, I realized just how much you had done during my surgery. In my younger years, I had a nice figure and didn't think much about my appearance. Then, after giving birth to two (large!) babies, one of them by Cesarean section, I had gained 60 pounds and lost any semblance of muscle tone in my stomach. I also had two abdominal surgeries over a six-year period, which left my belly even more disfigured. I was tired of spending my youth being misshapen and miserable. When I finally summoned the courage to come to your office for a consultation, I was deeply embarrassed to have even a surgeon or nurse see me unclothed. You can imagine how difficult it was to go to the pool in a bathing suit or, worse, have my husband see me unclothed. (This inhibition even contributed to the breakup of my six-year marriage). While filling out the forms in your office that first day, I refused to give permission for the Austin-Weston Center to use my "before and after" photos; even though they would have been anonymous, I was too embarrassed to have them seen by anyone. Now, three weeks after an abdominoplasty and major liposuction, I still have swelling and pain, and a large incision scar from hip to hip. Yet even with the scar and considerable swelling, I am already wearing shorts and panties that are one to two sizes smaller. I have an actual waist now, and a much flatter belly. I've already been able to enjoy appreciative looks from strangers; the relief of throwing away the "circus tent" shorts; the delight in wearing bikini underwear for the first time in seven years. What's more, you not only removed the ugly purple scar left on my hip from a previous operation, but also fashioned an adorable new belly button to replace the old one. What a wonderful bonus! While it cost a handsome sum of money to have this surgery, and the recuperation was not easy, I feel that somehow I still owe you an enormous debt of gratitude. Your skill has taken away the ravages of pregnancy, abdominal surgeries, and weight gain. You have given me back my pride, and I can't thank you enough. I can't say enough times how happy I am with the results ... again... thank you!"

"I finally have gotten the chance to sit down a write a letter of thanks to you and your staff! It has been quite a while since I have seen you, but I have fond memories (and some scary) of you, my surgery, supporting staff, and my healing process. Thank you so much for everything! I do not regret my decision to have a breast reduction for one second! The last time you saw me, my breasts had gotten a little larger than the size that they were right after the surgery. I feel that it was due to weight gain or maybe my breasts were rebelling. Who knows? You’ll be happy to know that I am on a serious, but safe, diet and am working hard to lose those extra pounds. I finally discovered the willpower within me to do this. The next time that I see you (yes, there will be a next time), I want to look fabulous! Once again, thank you for everything that you have done for me! This kindness, medical attention, genuine concern, and smiling staff are greatly appreciated! "

""I had occasion to have a meeting with someone I had not known previous to the surgery. We were discussing the surgery and she said that she was considering it in the future. She mentioned that she guessed that I was in my forties. When I told her that I was 62 and showed her the ‘before pictures’, she seemed genuinely surprised." "

""I just want to thank you again for the attention and care you gave me both before, during and after my surgery. As I told you during my last visit, everyone in your clinic was professional, yet warm and caring. Your friendliness, enthusiasm, sense of humor, together with your professionalism put me at ease. I really appreciated that I did not feel at any time, whether in my conversations with you or your staff, that I was being judged as a foolish woman who was trying to turn back the clock.""

""I hardly know where to begin in expressing my gratitude to you and the other fine professionals at the Austin-Weston Center. I received the best possible care in every aspect of my treatment. It starts at the front desk where staff members greet me with a smile and remember my name when I enter the door. The patient consultant seems in good spirits no matter how many patients have passed through her door that day, skillfully guiding me through the paperwork and scheduling. She has demonstrated near infinite patience with all the peculiarities and challenges of my needs. The surgical staff and assistants are truly a team – whoever was assisting me did so competently, cheerfully and compassionately. Thank you to my surgeon for your hard-earned skills and your artistry. Thanks most of all for the respect and openness in discussing my surgical needs. You have earned my complete trust.""

""The first thing I must say is, “Thank you for changing my life!” I would like to thank you and the staff at the surgery center for such a wonderful experience. I decided to have surgery about a year ago and it has taken me that long to decide to do it. I went on a number of consultations after my initial consultation with you and I must admit my consultations should have stopped there at the Austin-Weston Center. I realized no other doctor had taken the time to explain everything to me in regards to my body, the surgery, the post surgery visits, medication, etc. So once I came to my senses, I came back to the Austin-Weston Center for a second consultation and I knew then that I had made the right choice and the best choice for me and I immediately scheduled my surgery. I would gladly recommend the Austin-Weston Center to anyone who is considering cosmetic surgery, without a doubt. Thanks again to everyone from the bottom of my heart for making my experience a great one. You all have changed my life forever!""
