PATIENT EXPERIENCES WITH DR. LANGELIER
I could not be more pleased with the excellent services received from Dr. Langelier and her wonderful team. When I first consulted with her about my eyes and face, she offered a comprehensive yet conservative approach. She laid out the steps to be taken and the proposed timeline. I was also impressed with the surgical team. She personally called me at home the evening after my surgery. Her personal touch is most impressive. Highly recommend!

Dr. Langelier is THE BEST. She is very caring and so down to earth. A perfectionist that wants to insure the client’s satisfaction. She is kind, the staff is great. I cannot see going to any other center!

The Center is great, Dr. Langelier performed a lower Blepharoplasty on me four weeks ago. I am so very happy with the results. The procedure went well, no complications, their staff is excellent. She cares about her patients and is truly a very talented surgeon and I highly recommend her if you are considering cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Langelier performed eyelid surgery on both of my eyes. The procedure was painless from start to finish. She and her staff were very professional and caring. I am very pleased with the results. Many thanks to her and her staff. Highly recommend her!!
