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.

Great Doctor!
Having been to other resources, Dr. O'Connell is by far the best!He spends time with you, listens, makes suggestions withoutoverselling and has a great personality. I wish I had met with him years ago, but the good thing is... I have now. His staff is equally as nice and prepared. If you are looking for an honest plastic surgeon I would take the time to meet with him...:)

My experience with Dr O'Connell along with his staff was as good as it gets from the moment I walked in for my initial consultation. Everyone is welcoming, efficient, and responsive. Most importantly, Dr O'Connell's work as a plastic surgeon is superb. He gave me exactly what I asked for and did it so well. I am thrilled with the results and strongly recommend him.

I am 6 weeks post-treatment for my 3rd annual Halo Laser treatment with PRP. I am 64 now and this procedure refreshes my skin tone and texture and lasts so nicely. I would recommend it highly to anyone. Your skin will feel so good. If you are able to treat it annually, even better. Thanks Dr. O’Connell, you are the best!

3rd Annual Halo laser treatment with PRP – Aug 16, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. O'Connell?
My story with Dr O'Connell was 15 yrs ago. I had bags under my eyes since I was a baby. Through a lifetime they've gotten progressively worse. I had eyelid surgery upper and lower October 26th 2002. I was incredibly happy with my procedure and through all these years my eyes look quite similar post op. I absolutely love Dr O'Connell, he's remarkable and quite a great personality. His bedside manner wins him over any other plastic surgeon and I would recommend him wholeheartedly!

I had a treatment with Dr. O'Connell for some old acne scarring. The results were phenomenal, beyond my expectations. He also has a great beside manor that I have not found elsewhere. I feel very comfortable in recommending him.

My 10 year son got hurt and needed stitches on his face -- not major but necessary, Dr. O'Connell saw us right away and had an amazing bed side manner with my son and myself. He took the time to explain everything to me and I never felt rushed. I still need to go back to get the stitches removed but I am confident that all will go well. I will post again after the final result.
