Dr. Katerina Gallus Reviews

Doctor Gallus is amazing! Her team is very kind, patient, and helpful!

The entirety of me wants to thank the entirety of the employees at Restore SD. I did weeks of researching and contacting places for breast augmentation surgery. Not only did Restore SD check all the boxes for what I was looking for, but they went above and beyond to confirm I made the right decision. First of all, I love the fact that the team is run by all females (aside from the anesthesiologist). Everyone that works there is very warm and welcoming. My surgeon, Dr. Gallus, immediately made me feel completely comfortable. She is not only an amazing and impressive physician, but she’s also very down to earth. Not to mention, she did a phenomenal job on my surgery. The results are even better than I could have imagined. The staffing team also came up with a thoughtful and useful care package for the surgery that included items such as arnica (for the bruising and swelling), scar cream, and more. Words can’t even describe how appreciative I am for making the decision to get surgery here. Anyone that is debating having any procedure here, I am telling you with my whole heart and soul, Restore SD is worth every penny.

I had a tummy tuck & breast reduction/lift to correct asymmetry with Dr. Gallus. Every visit to her office is always so pleasant & comfortable, she truly makes sure her patients are well taken care of. Every single person on her team has always been so kind, too! My skin is genetically prone to keloids and the level of attention & support that has been provided to me to combat my adverse scarring has been nothing short of amazing. I’m so impressed and grateful for the care I’ve received at RestoreSD with Dr. Gallus.

Love this office, I’ve been coming for a few months now and they are always so welcoming. Love the all women staff as well.

I love getting my Botox at Restore SD Plastic Surgery esp. from Dr Gallus, she’s awesome! Very knowledgeable and very important to me that she doesn’t upsell!!!

I live in texas and fly in every four months for dysport and lip filler with Dr. Chao and its worth every flight mile used. I highly recommend Restore. There team is so welcoming and kind, especially Brianna who ices my forehead everytime. I love it here!

I don’t even know where to begin, I had been keeping the fact that I had been in pain and discomfort with one of my breast implants for a few years, from my husband The thought of a third augmentation was terrifying to me. He immediately found the best breast plastic surgeon in California; Dr. Katerina Gallus, Restore SD Plastic Surgery! From the moment I stepped into this all-female office, AND was seen at my appointment time!! I was in awe of the attention to detail Dr. Katerina Gallus, and RN Isela gave me. Dr. Gallus is not full of herself, soft spoken, but confident, experienced talented perfectionist. She did an AMAZING JOB!! From my take-home package that included pre-surgery vitamins, Chapstick, lips get chapped when we go under, cough drops because your throat can become sore, and arnica for bruising, no male surgeon I have had, including in” La Jolla and Beverly Hills” has ever been so on top of every detail. the tiny details just blew my mind I’ve had eight surgeries in my life; half were elective body enhancing. So, I am speaking from experience. The attention to detail that Dr. Gallus and her staff showed me, I can’t begin to say how amazed it was. Then after surgery because she had prepared me so well, I woke up I was in no pain I had no pain for 24 hours and I hadn’t taken anything but 2000 mg Tylenol morning of surgery I’ve taken 2 of the opiate pain pills in total, the Valium was the best for me, otherwise I would be cleaning the house. Best recovery medicine is rest and relaxation. The generosity with the compression garments, mind blowing, some doctors have you purchase them. (TO BAD THEY MUST GO NAMELESS LOL) Not only did she supply them she gave extra!! And the foam pieces for EXTRA COMPRESSOIN on Lipo area; BRILIANT! The speed at which I am recovering is astonishing, this Dr. needs to be a teaching her methods to all surgeons!! I have told all my female clients about Dr. Gallus and her staff! I had been walking around feeling deformed since 2002, because a previous liposuction on my belly that was so deep it was like a Ditch running from hip to hip. And my breast augmentation from the same Dr. (Beverly Hills), mentioned to me after surgery that he made them bigger than we discussed!? WTF. Dr. Gallus and I decided to go a little smaller, and she suggested a slight nipple raise. I was little nervous of possible sensation lose, but already have full sensation. They are the breasts I always wanted, the slight nipple raise makes 100% difference! I LOVE MY BREAST NOW; I am so happy I don’t feel like my stomach is deformed anymore. I’m 63 and I finally feel comfortable in my body. My body is perfect to me!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr. Gallus and your EXCEPTIONAL STAFF! Huge shout out to nurse Isela, for her kindness and extensive time she spent with me! Ava, such a cutie immediate response to my calls, and emails. Beautiful Bri and her amazing hair, so sweet and attentive. And last but in no way least, the compassionate, reassuring, and charming Dr. Ibrahim anesthesiologist (a male pleasant surprise). You all made this experience Unforgettable!! Sincerely, Stacie Davis I almost forgot the most important part of this experience 5 to 6 weeks out of my surgery she’s doing laser on any scars to make them invisible that should have been at the very top of my review but this woman is amazing anyone is thinking about redoing or having your breast augmentation done this is the only woman to do it trust me! ❤️‍🩹💝

So professional, patient, & above all, made me feel comfortable with what could have been a very awkward thing (getting naked a lot in exam rooms could be weird, but they made it feel safe & comforting). Ava & Isela get a special thank you for being so patient with my endless questions & anxiety induced panic moments. Thank you to the entire staff & especially Dr Gallus. I look forward to future appointments.

This is the place to go, they are absolutely amazing and so kind. I would recommend 100 times over!!

I had a great experience at Restore SD. Dr. Gallus is absolutely wonderful and made the process seamless from start to finish. Her resume speaks for itself! From the first consultation, I knew what to expect, and when, with the process of my procedure and after-care clearly explained, and all my questions answered. The process was very collaborative and she treated me with respect, honesty, and set clear expectations. I am very happy with my results, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone inquiring. The Restore SD facilities are accessible, clean, organized, and I can’t say enough great things about the entire staff. Ava is so professional and considerate and was amazing at meeting my scheduling requests from day one, as well as answering all my financing questions. Bri is one of one. She is knowledgeable, respectful, nonjudgmental, empowering, and she makes you feel so comfortable at every encounter. It would be hard to find a team that works together with a better rapport than Bri and Dr. G!
