I am very pleased that I chose Dr. Zavell to perform my breast reduction surgery. From start to finish, he and his staff were professional, compassionate, caring and very patient with all my individual concerns and specific questions. They helped me work with my insurance company to get the procedure covered after it was first denied. I would highly recommend any one considering breast reduction surgery to go talk to Dr. Zavell and his staff and get the ball rolling...my only regret is that I didn't have it done 10 years earlier!!

I'm so glad I decided to get a second opinion and found Dr.Zavell! He is an amazing plastic surgeon who takes pride in his work and has great bedside manner. His whole team is terrific, Especially Sara his R.N. she was more than willing to answer all my husbands & I's questions and concerns. I am currently one week post op today and I'm up and moving, only taking Ibuprofen for pain now! I do have a lot of swelling which is to be expected, but very minimal bruising. No drains needed, but I did opt to have the massages before my post op appointments to help get the fluid moving...which I must say I was a bit afraid of someone massaging where I just had muscle repair inside and a scar from hip to hip outside but it didn't hurt at all. Actually it was very relaxing and I felt as if I didn't have as much pressure around my incision and I could stand a little straighter today after it also. I was very nervous about having a tummy tuck at first, but I must say Dr. Zavell couldn't have done a better job! I had Diastasis Recti and I needed my muscles repaired badly. I felt deformed in my own body and very trapped after my last child because no matter how many sit ups I would do I knew my separated muscles would never be flat again. Feeling very desperate for help I almost went with the first person I found when googling tummy tuck. I'm so glad I decided to do my research and found Dr. Zavell, a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon!! He was very quick to personally respond to my questions when I messaged him from his website and reassured me he could fix my muscles. When I first met with him at the consultation I was confident I was making the right decision. I honestly cried when I took my binder off and saw my stomach for the first time. I feel like a new person already...Thank You Dr. Zavell!

I am 54 years old. I was approved by insurance to have my upper eyelids lifted. I made the decision to have my lower eyelids done also, since they were puffy and tired looking. In addition, Dr. Zavell suggested using a small fat graft to fill the depression just bone my cheek bones. I couldn’t be happier. I look and feel rejuvenated. Dr. Zavell and his staff were outstanding. Each and every member of his team were friendly, compassionate, and highly professional. I also appreciated how the office ran very efficiently. I was always seen in a timely manner. I couldn’t begin to recommend a physician more highly than Dr. Zavell!

I choose Dr. Zavell for my breast augmentation surgery this summer. To say that the experience was amazing is an extreme understatement! I was impressed from the time I walked into the office for my initial consultation appointment through my last follow-up appointment. Dr. Zavell is very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He took his time to thoroughly explain the procedure, potential risks, and recovery process. He was also very focused on my cosmetic goal (I wanted larger, natural looking breasts). The process was flawless and I could not possibly be happier with my results! I would recommend Dr. Zavell to anyone and will absolutely be returning to him for future cosmetic needs.

When I first met with dr zavell I knew right away he was going to be everything I wanted in a surgeon and then some. He's extremely understanding and down to earth and explains exactly what you need to know. His staff and nurse Sarah are some of the warmest people I've had the pleasure of meeting. They took such great care of me and made sure I felt as comfortable as possible through the entire process. And to top it all off my results completely exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to go through with breast augmentation.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer 6 years ago. I was told I needed a double mastectomy and reconstructivery surgery if desired. I desired. I selected Dr Zavell for my series of reconstruction at the recommendation of my ob gyn. I was as content as possible with the result of my reconstruction. So....lately I decided I needed some facial sprucing up. Dr Zavell is who I trust and believe in. I went in for a consultation...he is honest and forthcoming with all pertinent information. He lets you ponder...he does not push. He understands women. I decided to have him perform a lower face lift and I am 100% satisfied with the results. He is such a great surgeon! I trust him implicitly. Both Dr Zavell and his staff are so kind...thoughtful....and considerate.....I just really really like them. ...as people and as professionals. I highly...highly recommend.

Recently had a breast augmentation. I can not say enough about the staff, and certainly not enough about Dr. Zavell. My first encounter with him, and his staff was back approx 10yrs ago, when I first had my liposuction and abdominalplasty. Of course when I was looking into breast augmentation I went back. My cosmetic surgeries has been my best investment. The perfection in his work is a reflection of the perfection I have received. The results have been better than I ever dreamed of. The care, compassion, and honesty. No words express what you will experience. Even his choice in surgical staff. Being a nurse myself, his perfection extends to who he partners with, even in the operating services. His honesty, this is his "specialty" and I know what I want, and he know what would be best, and my look and results are million times better than I expected. I could write more, the compliments are endless. Recovery was just as a perfect. When I looked into, cosmetic surgery, key factor was medial school. Dr. Zavell did graduate from the University of Michigan. Their perfection in their work, and physicians they train, I knew no matter what, I would be cared for to my expectations. Actually, my care, the treatment, the entire experience, and my results, well exceeded my expectations. Thank you again. I have never been happier with my body and in my skin. I was best investment EVER.

This was my first experience with plastic surgery, and I found Dr. Zavell and his staff to be extremely professional; making me feel very comfortable with my decision. My neck and lower face lift is subtle enough to not be obvious but still has new acquaintances thinking I'm 10 years younger than I am! Who doesn't love that! My experience was that this procedure was a piece of cake. Dr. Zavell is a magician, Lauralee is a great nurse, and Robin was a great comforter during the surgery. Thank you to everyone in his office and the staff at Bella Via.

Younger Me

I am 58 and try to stay fit, however I felt my face did not match my body. To confirm those thoughts, some people thought I was older than my husband who is also 58. I was constantly thinking about improving my appearance but was not confident if cosmetic surgery was for me. It was important for me to look natural. Also, I did not want to look like a different person. I just wanted a younger version of myself. My husband insisted that I should do some homework to satisfy my urge for change. I started by researching “how to pick a plastic surgeon” and asked for recommendations from friends, estheticians and dermatologists. I visited 3 surgeons and asked about their procedures and opinions on what they would recommend for me. In my venture, I found Dr. Zavell was the most knowledgeable about the latest cosmetic procedures. His willingness to take the time to answer all my questions, his desire to listen to my wants/needs and explain in detail his process won my confidence to go through with the surgery and with him. Shortly after making my decision I received a Pre-Operative Booklet about my personal surgery. The booklet provided me with details of what to expect and how to prepare myself for the upcoming event physically and emotionally. Dr. Zavell did not leave one stone unturned in the preparation phase. It was obvious to me that he was a perfectionist! I am now happy and confident with how I look. My children and husband also love the results of my surgery. Dr. Zavell’s staff helped make my experience a positive one, as well. They were always happy, friendly, personable, knowledgeable and always on time. It is easily identifiable that Dr. Zavell and his staff have pride in their work and love what they do. Thank you!!

I was visiting a friend here in town for a few months and decided to have a nose job. He recommended Dr Zavell. Fortunately for me i was able to get into the office, have a lengthy, informative consult, and have my surgery all within two months. I had a great experience. My football crooked nose is a lot straighter now. Dr Zavell is a good doc and i would recommend him to anyone. I asked my friend if I could use his computer to post my review as I was so impressed.
