      "It was a real pleasure meeting Dr. Helen Colen while Dr. Stephen Colen was on medical leave. She was thorough with her medical diagnosis, and suggestions, and on a personal level, we had a wonderful conversation that left a great impression on me that I will not forget. She is a very special person."

      "My consultation was with Helen Colen. Dr Colen spent more than an hour with me. She explained every aspect of the procedure I was asking about. I booked it and a few days later when I recieved the pre op information I began to worry about it. I emailed Dr Colen. Despite the Thanksgiving weekend, Dr Colen answered all my concerns in the email exchange. She is a fine, skilled and caring doctor. The BEST!!!"

      "The office environment is very calm/serene, just as you'd want it to be when you're coming in for something as stressful as surgery. The front desk staff is wonderful, and I can't say enough about Tara and Dr. Colen. They are warm, caring, funny, and put you at ease right away. They thoroughly answer all of your questions, and Tara makes herself available 24/7. I'm only on day 2, but so far it's been a wonderful (and far less stressful) experience thanks to the team at Dr. Colen's office. "

She went through my medical and surgical history unhurried and found a solution to problems I've had for many years. She is kind and gentle yet sharp and direct. I left knowing I was in expert hands.

      "But the wait was somewhat due to back up from the hurricane. M appointment date was kept, the time was pushed back. Overall, I am very happy with the service there. And the staff was friendly and helpful."

      "An inordinate amount of time was selflessly given to listening to my concerns, answering my questions, explaining procedure and describing recuperation time by Dr. Helen Colen.

      Dee Cheek was clear about my financial responsibility and what to expect as I approach my surgery.

If anything happens to goes wrong during recovery, she will make sure to work with you to revise and meet your expectations. She is a miracle worker!!!

      "Very professional staff, knowledgeable and committed to assisting both the client and the doctor. The facilities are state of the art and very private. I travel over 2,000 miles to work with Dr Colen. She is the only one that I will trust with my body and my face. I never look like I have had work done. I always look like I have had a fabulous vacation, a new haircut, or have just lost allot of weight. Everyone comments that I don't seem to age and they ask what my secret creams and diet are that has kept me the same age.....I love that!"

      "The consult with Dr Helen Colen was two hours long. She showed me exactly what she would do to fix my neck and pointed out that once that was done, I'd see the pouches around my eyes. She explained how these could be removed.
      Dr Colen told me how long the recovery would be and just what would happen. Dee explained the costs and arrangements. I left feeling very happy and well taken care of, saying I needed 24 hours to make a final decision. When I got home I called my dauhter and told her I was thinking of doing the surgery. She said," Mom, that's great. You trust her
      and it will make you happy". I called Dee and booked the date!
