I want to say the minute Dr. Lawton walked into the room there was immediate comfort levels from all three of us (my husband was in attendance). I actually sent an e-mail and got an immediate response from Dr. Lawton himself. I wanted a tummy tuck immediately so I could return to work before the end of the month and they immediately made an appointment and the next thing I knew I was in and out and home recovering all in a matter of days. I had outside medical concerns that came up from testing prior to making the appointment and having the procedure done by Dr. Lawton. Because of my comfort level with Dr. Lawton, I sent him an e-mail telling him what another physician called me about and immediately Dr. Lawton made a referral for me to see another surgeon to assure that the first DX was correct. He called me at home several times to see 1. If I had followed up with his recommendation and 2. To make sure I was comfortable with the results from his referral. He is VERY caring and VERY open and honest about his recommendations and why he feels the way he does. I will be very honest about the reason I chose Dr. Lawton over several other Plastic Surgeons that I had visited over the last several months. 1. His bedside manner is extremely appreciated, 2. His before and after pictures are GREAT and last but absolutely not least, I read ALL of the COMMENTS from patients and he had one dissatisfied patient that had requested a procedure and Dr. Lawton did not feel that it would be necessary so she found a physician that would do what she wanted. HIS RESPONSE TO HER IS WHAT TURNED ME ONTO HIM. HE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL, NEVER CRITICAL IN HIS RESPONSE AND MADE THE STATEMENT THAT HE WAS GLAD SHE FOUND A PHYSICIAN THAT SHE WAS HAPPY WITH. I have been in the Medical Field for the past 39 years and 99% of the physicians that I work with wouldn't responded at all or deleted the negative comment from their comment section. After I heal 100% from my tummy tuck I am going back for a breast lift, possibly more. THANK YOU Dr Lawton for being there when I had questions and concerns about other professionals comments. My husband has worked closely with physicians for the past 40 years and he was very comfortable with Dr. Lawton. THAT in ITSELF is a huge compliment from my husband. Please consider Dr.Lawton for any Plastic/Cosmetic procedure you may need, in my eyes he is the BEST!
