Reviews

"I've been a patient of Dr Summer Blacks for about 4 years and I would never go anywhere else. I am ALWAYS ecstatic with her work and have had Botox and Restylane filler in my cheeks and lips. Dr Black is not only a total perfectionist but she becomes a friend you feel comfortable confiding in and sharing your life with. I would recommend Dr Black to my own mother....and in fact I did! Now we are both her patients who regularly visit her for all our anti-aging facial perfecting cosmetic work."

My surgery was for health and esthetic reasons and I felt she addressed all my issues equally. Her office staff is professional and thorough. Patty was so helpful! I highly recommend Dr Black and her team of professionals. I will go back when I need future plastic surgery."

"Fabulous practice. From entering the office you are immediately treated like a family member. Patti's knowledge, attention to detail and her compassion are second to none. Dr. Summer Black gives you 100% of her attention and compassion. I was extremely comfortable with her performing my surgery and had no anxiety. If I had the option, I would have Dr. Black as my Primary Care Physician."
