What recent reviews say

Strong track record across multiple procedures: breast surgery, hand reconstruction, and body contouring earn consistent five-star praise for technical skill and staff warmth. Office is clean and attentive during consultations, though some patients report minimal post-op guidance after hand work and past friction over deposit policies.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Praised for
  • skilled surgical work
  • friendly and professional staff
  • clean, welcoming office
  • thorough explanations and follow-up
  • anxiety-friendly approach
Watch-outs
  • poor follow-up after hand surgery
  • deposit refund disputes
  • appointment scheduling delays
skilled-surgeonattentive-staffcomfortable-facilityexcellent-bedside-mannerthorough-consultationpoor-communication
Best for: Patients comfortable with a surgical practice that prioritizes technique and office warmth over detailed post-op support.
Think twice if: Patients having hand surgery should verify post-op follow-up expectations upfront; deposit refund policies unclear from past disputes.

  • Staff known by name; strong patient rapport
  • Realistic expectations set during consultation
  • Clean, professional surgical environment

Worth knowing

  • Karen cited by name as receptionist with warm demeanor

  • Lipoma removal offered
  • Tummy tuck patients report notably fine scarring
  • Breast reduction patients report rapid healing support
  • Consultations include before-and-after photos

What reviews say by service

Breast Augmentation & Breast Surgery
Breast reduction patients praise results and rapid recovery support.
Body Contouring & Liposuction
Tummy tuck outcomes consistently praised; scars noted as exceptionally fine by multiple reviewers.
Facial Plastic Surgery
Eyelid and forehead work earns strong long-term satisfaction; one patient returned 15 years later.
Reconstructive & Hand Surgery
Hand surgery (carpal tunnel, Dupuytren's, trigger finger) resolves pain but post-op guidance often lacks detail.
Non-Surgical & Injectables
Limited review detail on injectables; practice clearly emphasizes surgical work.

Common questions

Multiple patients note scars are unusually fine and fade well over time; one family doctor called them the nicest she had seen.
How is the office atmosphere?
Reviewers describe it as clean, welcoming, and staffed by friendly professionals. Karen at reception is frequently mentioned by name for her warm approach.

Most satisfied patients praise Dr. Hynes' skill, the staff's warmth (especially Karen at front desk), and smooth healing. Yet serious gaps emerge: one patient experienced asymmetry after abdominoplasty with zero follow-up from the clinic despite repeated contact; phone lines are consistently busy or divert to an unrelated device seller; and complications go unaddressed. Past reviews glow, but recent ones flag a stark decline in accountability and communication. Since review evidence is limited, note that detail provided here reflects only these 17 reviews.

Most visits deliver polished, comfortable experiences with staff praised for warmth and gentle technique, particularly nurses like Noreen who are named repeatedly for making clients feel at ease. Behind strong results and scheduling flexibility sit persistent red flags: upselling pressure on Botox units, a controversial "low dose waiver" after payment, and severe complaints about Affirm cancellations where the clinic allegedly ghosted and refused refunds despite no services rendered. Repeat clients credit PRP, Sculptra, and lip filler outcomes, and the clinic offers frequent promotions. However, two recent one-star reviews describe predatory financial practices and unprofessional, rude behavior that contradict the friendliness most report. The pattern suggests excellent day-to-day patient care masked by corporate-level payment and complaint handling that crosses ethical and legal lines.
