I truly cannot say enough about Dr. Gallus, what an amazing doctor! I had been to several surgeons looking for that "right fit" and didn't find it until I met Dr. Gallus. I felt instantly upon meeting Dr. Gallus that she was the doctor for me. From my first appointment with her to my post-op appointments, I felt as if I had known her for quite some time. I never felt like I was just another patient but felt as if she was a friend that I could explain my concerns to. She made me feel comfortable and helped me put together a surgery/treatment plan that I felt good about. I'm honestly a little sad that we're near the end of my treatment. Erin has been fabulous as well! She is kind, funny and was extremely helpful in answering all of my treatment/insurance/financial questions quickly and I appreciated that. I knew upon talking with and then meeting Erin, that I was going to like her. Having worked in the medical field, I can tell by office personnel if an office will have a good vibe and everyone here at Restore San Diego has hit the mark! I am so grateful that I kept looking to find the right doctor and that I found Dr. Gallus. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone again and again. If you are looking to have any type of cosmetic procedure, I would highly recommend you do yourself a favor and come meet Dr. Gallus and her team, you will not be disappointed!

This is the second surgery I've had done by DR Douglas and I couldn't be happier with my results. I refer my friends to him all the time and I'm confident they'll be just as happy with their results. If you are thinking of having plastic surgery or just have questions, you owe it to yourself to come in and sit down with DR Douglas. His facility is beautiful, and the staff are wonderful. You won't be disappointed!

Where to even begin.... Dr. Gallus and her team are truly incredible! I saw multiple doctors and none of them ever listened to my concerns or to how I was actually feeling. Dr. Gallus did!!! She heard me and she made me feel like a family member or close friend and not just a paying patient. She never tried to over sell me on a procedure she didn't think I needed, gave me her honest opinion and she asked what I wanted and what I thought. When I decided to have my treatment and wanted to schedule my appt her team went above and beyond to get me in as soon as possible. Erin her coordinator even held my hand as the anesthesiologists put me to sleep because I was so nervous. The facility I had my surgery was OMG amazing. The girls were so friendly and treated me with so much kindness. I even got video, pictures, and I emailed Erin with questions I had. Erin was always so prompt getting back to me. I have never felt so much support and love from a plastic surgeon office (I have been to a few). She was always so prompt and amazing!!! I had my 3 week post op today and I got my scar cream to apply on my incisions and am scheduled for my 1st of 3 laser sessions. I am so happy with my results anI will always refer Dr. Gallus and her team to everyone I know. She changed my life and I will be forever grateful!!!

Thank you to Dr. Trent Douglas, Erin Murphy and the Restore San Diego team for my mommy makeover. Sometimes regardless of all the time in the gym and healthy lifestyle a little help is needed. A breast lift, implant exchange and tummy tuck gave back confidence I haven't felt in a long time.

Restore Plastic Surgery is absolutely amazing! Dr. Douglas gave me just the lift and augmentation I needed after having two small kids. It was absolute perfection and exactly what I asked for, a very natural look. Since my surgery I have been back for several treatments, including the state of the art laser treatment they offer to get rid of surgical scars. Six months after surgery there is not a single hint of a scar. My other treatments have included a variety of skin treatments that keep my skin looking fresh and young, thanks to a combination of Dr. Douglas and his staff. I cannot say enough good things about this office. I will continue to go back!

Dr. Douglas saved my life! No joke! I have been suffering from what became debilitating medical issues for 5 years. Sweeping my symptoms under the rug as if it was just a low-grade infection or a mild health concern which I certainly knew would eventually go away or hopefully cure itself...at some point. Instead I ignored the root cause...which for me was BII (breast implant illness). My body instantly began attacking itself...within 2 months of implants, I was suffering from migraines that turned into vertigo (which lasted 37 days!!). Then it spiraled from chronic fatigue to fibromyalgia, hyperthyroidism, Hoshimoto's, to blurred vision, severe brain fog, excruciating back, neck and shoulder pain...to lastly large fibrous cysts...and day by day...little by little I became depressed, lifeless and fearful of an early death. The massive overload of toxins in my body were slowly killing me! Now, not everyone has this reaction to silicone or saline...and I'm not writing this to scare you...I'm just so incredibly grateful that Dr. Douglas listened to me! He never said I was crazy...he never said it was all in my head!...what he did say is that many women DO have reactions to foreign toxins and that implants are not for everyone and if I feel this unhealthily, then I should listen to my body! He was empathetic! Professional! Compassionate! and SINCERE! I booked my explant that day! 3 weeks later had surgery...and I'm now 11 days post OP and I feel myself making a come back! I'm alert, no aches or pains ANYWHERE and I'm loving my new look!! Thank you Dr. Douglas!! You and your team are amazing and I will forever be grateful that I found you!!!

I had an excellent experience. The practice is impeccable. I loved their 3D imaging machine that shows you your entire procedure outcome before it happens. It helped me feel confident with my decision. The best thing about Dr. Gallus is there is no pressure, she asks you what is most important to you and figures out a way to make you happy.

I couldn't recommend Restore enough! There are many options out there for plastic surgeons but I am so glad I was able to find them through a referral, because I can't imagine having a better experience. Dr. Douglas and his staff are so welcoming, friendly, respectful, and most of all, professional. They really make you feel like you are in good hands, whether you are going in for a major procedure or a facial. I couldn't be happier with my results, everything exceeded my expectations. They have the most beautiful and clean office, and the best tech out there, including a 3D imaging machine which was amazing! I did a lot of research before going to Dr. Douglas, and I really don't think I could have gotten a better experience anywhere else. Through the whole process they made me feel comfortable, listened to my requests and concerns, and always followed up with me and made me feel totally cared for. For me, my results and the incredibly short healing process speak for themselves.

Dr. Douglas is truly a talented surgeon. From the beginning Dr. Douglas and his staff made me feel comfortable and at ease with the procedure. I chose to have breast implants removed and a lift. The results far exceeded my expectations and I couldn't be happier with my experience. I feel more rested, no longer have back and shoulder pain and I'm more active from day to day without discomfort. The staff are there with you through the entire process always making sure your comfortable. Dr. Douglas goes above and beyond during all appointments to answer any questions and address any concerns you may have. Truly a wonderful team at Restore SD. Highly recommended!!!

Since the very first day, my experience with Erin and Dr. Douglas have been wonderful. I went there for my breast augmentation and let Dr. Douglas know what I was aiming for. Thanks to his years of experience and great care, he knew exactly what I wanted. I am amazed with the results! I have recommended him to my friends and family and will continue to put a word out there. Thank you so much for making this experience wonderful.

Dr. Douglas and his team are professional and make every patient feel comfortable and cared for. I am very pleased with the initial CO2 Laser treatment on my chin scar. Thank you so much!

Dr. Gallus and her team are absolutely amazing! From the very first call, Jordyn was so kind and informative. My search was over the moment I had my first consultation with Dr. Gallus. Her talent and care are immediately shown from the very beginning. I trusted her and the team and a few months after that I had my liposuction procedure which has since then changed my life and self-esteem for the best! I could not thank Dr. Gallus, Jordyn, or Erin enough for all they have done for me throughout this experience, and most importantly for making it so easy! Forever grateful for them and my results.

Dr. Gallus, thank you for your compassion and patience. I sing your praises all the time.

At 47, and with 3 grown children, I decided it was time for a “mommy makeover” and I couldn’t be more pleased with my results or my surgeon. Dr. Douglas is by far the most thorough and caring surgeon I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He listened attentively to my requests and explained how he could implement those requests with my frame and body type; the end result literally took my breath away. The surgical skill of Dr. Douglas has enhanced my self-esteem and enabled me to feel good about myself, not only on the inside but on the outside as well. I would not hesitate to have Dr. Douglas perform more surgical procedures in the future nor would I hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking a surgeon for their plastic surgery needs.

Dr. Gallus – Thank you for everything you have done! Your expertise and compassion have truly been life changing. I will forever be grateful and will think of you when I wear short sleeves on very hot days!

Dr. Douglas, Thank you so much! My mommy makeover has given me a renewed sense of self-confidence and I have never looked or felt better. Your patience, care, and attention to detail were much appreciated during the process. Your staff is amazing and I can’t say enough good things about my experience.

Dr. Gallus – Thank you for all your help and good care.

Dr. Douglas and Staff, Wow! I can’t believe my new body and how great I feel. My breast augmentation and liposuction have really changed my look for the better. I enjoyed working with you and your staff and am confident that I made the right choice in my surgeon. I will look forward to picking out new clothes and know that I will look great at the office and out socially. Thank you so very much!

I am so glad that I chose her to perform my breast augmentation surgery. She walked me through the process from start to finish and her staff was always attentive and available. I felt like she really understood me and wanted me to look fabulous! I am ecstatic about my results and have never felt better about the way I look. It was such a meaningful positive change for me and I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Gallus. I have given Dr. Gallus great reviews and have recommended her to my friends and family. I will be a customer for life and look forward to scheduling laser and facials with her down the road.

Dr. Douglas, It took me awhile to decide on a facelift and I am glad that I chose you. Your thoughtful planning and delightful bedside manner put me at ease as we went from planning to surgery and on to recovery. You are truly talented and my results look so natural. I am thrilled with my outcome and am eager to go show off my new look. Many thanks to you and your fabulous staff!

I want to thank Dr. Douglas for the years of excellent and personal care you he provided me. From replacing my encapsulated implants and doing a breast lift to my lower eyelid lift and fat transfer surgery, you have given me a much more youthful look and confidence boost. I appreciate that you developed a relationship with me as your patient and took time to listen to my goals and concerns so together we could develop a perfect plan for me. You are a true professional with skill and compassion. I feel very fortunate to have you as my Plastic Surgeon.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer and wanted to know all of my reconstructive options. I was very blessed when I was referred to Dr. Douglas for my reconstructive surgery after my mastectomy. He is very detailed and makes sure that he gets it right. He cares what you think and will not settle for anything else. I wish Dr. Douglas was my Primary Care Provider because I would never let him go. He is, by far, the top Doctor that you want to go to in order get what you want and need. He knows exactly what you are asking for and knows how to come through with outstanding results. He does not walk away from you until you are 100% happy, and he is happy to see you at each phase of recovery.. When he is in the room with me, no one else is his priority but me. I can go on and on about Dr. Douglas. If I can only give him a 5 out of 5 stars, I would have to argue that and give him a 10. You will not regret a visit and surgery with him!!

I was so happy that I decided to go to Dr. Douglas for my breast augmentation surgery. I had visited two other plastic surgeons and knew that I had found the right doctor for me when I met Dr. Douglas and his staff. The entire experience was amazing and I’m thrilled with my surgical results. I really felt that Dr. Douglas listened to my goals and what I wanted to get out of my breast enhancement surgery. I look and feel great and my self-esteem has never been better. I have highly recommended Dr. Douglas to my friends and co-workers and will look forward to coming back for my Botox and skin care needs.
