Breast Reduction 60 Yr. Old - Wellesley, MA To sum it up; an MRI technicican suggested I look into a breast reduction because all mammos for the past 10 yrs. resulted in having to have an ultrasound then an mri to rule out that cysts were not tumors. This was because of dense breasts. I found Christopher Davidson and cannot say enough great things about him. I was fortunate to have found such a compassionate Dr. with such great credentials who actually listened to what I wanted. After a consult and determination that my insurance (Harvard Pilgrim) would cover the cost a surgery date was chosen. I like that they put me on Vit C to help healing BEFORE surgery so my body would be ready. Surgery went very well and I awoke with a surgical bra and no nausea, which for me is a big deal. This is because Dr. Davidson listened to my nausea stories and put an anti nausea patch on my ear area and boy, did it work! Oh, and right before surgery when he met with me to draw out incisions he asked, if given a choice would I want to go a step smaller or larger. I chose smaller. He also noted that I was a triple D!! I am small boned and pre surgery weight was around 145. Well, it has been six weeks since surgery and I am very impressed with his skills. The incisions are healing beautifully. There is minimal scarring and I now have perfectly formed and shaped breasts, about a small C, large B. The biggest change has been how confident I feel, and I was pretty confident beforehand. I never realized how often I had to consider breast size till I no longer had to think about it. All of my tops close and zip up. On a pre bday trip the girlfriends were in awe, asking several times at breakfast, are you sure you don't have a bra on? They look amazing!! I did everything the dr. said including taking it very easy for two weeks..if you're considering this surgery you need at least this much recoup time; at a minimum , three would be best. I had nipple sensation within two days and since he told me bras were over rated I let my breasts breathe and went bra free several times a day but did find sleeping more comfortable with a bra on. I was off pain meds within 36 hours and also attribute this to his skill. I feared the dreaded drainage tubes but they actually helped me to realize everything was going well since there was no discoloration and no smell..I also believe it helped to reduce swelling. Also, when removed I felt NOTHING...I was so nervous about this..what a breeze it was. My stitches stayed in for a good 12 days or so and again, no discomfort upon removal. I'm trying to think of things I would have wanted to know so you can pm me questions. Oh, and his staff? Superb! I feared going into Newton/Wellesley and being treated indifferently. Couldn't be further from the truth. From his office staff to the surgical / hospital teams, I was treated with kindness and respect.

19 Years Old, Personal Trainer/exercise Instructor.. 32AA Breast Size and Was Very Self Conscious of It! - Wellesley, MA After the best consultation experience with Dr. Davidson and his team, I felt so confident picking him to be my surgeon. With the job that I have, I obviously love to workout and eat healthy. At the same time, I don't have a lot of body fat and I never had much of a chest, especially when I started eating so clean and working out much more than I did before. I was very confident with how my body looked and loved being in shape. However, I had the chest of an eight year-old boy! I was so self conscious about this my whole life. So, I decided to just go for it and I am SO HAPPY I did! After the one hour surgery, I got home and was in a lot of pain as expected. The first two days were pretty painful, but I was completely off pain medicines the fourth day! I never bruised, had very small incisions that left the lightest and smallest scars that I can only see, and they look & feel natural. I am a 32D know, but they look proportionate which was my biggest concern. I went under the muscle and one incision under each breast. they are symmetrical and fell so naturally. I couldn't be happier with my experience and I have to thank Dr. Davidson and his staff for everything!

I have had three plastic surgery procedures with Dr. Christopher Davidson, and I highly and unreservedly recommend him and his staff to anyone considering plastic surgery in the Greater Boston area. His surgical skills are excellent, but even more important to me are his interpersonal skills. He immediately made me comfortable during my initial consultation with his professional and competent demeanor. He spent as much time as it took to make me comfortable with the procedures and answered all my questions. I even emailed him prior to my surgery with some more questions and he responded thoroughly and promptly. I experienced a post-operative infection (I am prone to them, so it was not unexpected) and was even more impressed with how he handled this. He responded to me within hours of my contacting him on a Sunday night about the infection, and had me in his office the following day as soon as I could make it in there. His team is top-notch, too! I cannot say enough about the competency and warmth shown by his Nurse Manager, Karen Godwin and his Office Manager, Pam Linehan. They are equally as dedicated to his patients as he is, which made for a wonderful experience in terms of follow-up care, appointments, insurance questions, billing, etc. I have as much confidence in them as I do in Dr. Davidson. His offices are comfortable and clean, and the waiting area is gorgeous! Of my three procedures, one took place at Newton Wellesley Hospital, one took place in his exam rooms, and the last one took place in his on-site surgical suite, so I can confidently recommend all of them. At every moment, I was made comfortable, I was well-informed, I was well-cared for, and never once regretted my choice of Dr. Davidson as my surgeon.

Under Eye Surgery - Wellesley, MA I had wanted to have the area under my eyes fixed for a very long time but was concerned based on my previous cosmetic surgery experiences. While searching around looking for a doctor, I came across Dr. Christopher Davidson, M.D., FACS website. I was very impressed by the site but needed to meet him for myself, so I booked an appointment. My husband and I came prepared with a list of questions and ready to interview Dr. Davidson to see if he would be the right fit for me. The consult went well. He listened to me and made me feel confident that he was going to give me the results I was looking for. The office and facilities were very impressive and the staff was friendly, polite and personable. I was very happy and impressed so I booked an appointment. The surgery went great and the nursing staff was attentive and sensitive to my needs. The results were exactly what I was looking for and I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend Dr. Christopher Davidson. If you're looking for a skilled Doctor with a friendly demeanor and outstanding support staff he is the one!!!!

Dr. Davidson was who my sister turned to for a second opinion. His calm, assured manner coupled with his extensive experience and education helped her decide he was, in fact, the right man for the job. The surgery was very successful and both Dr. Davidson AND his staff were very responsive and caring toward my sister and her successful recovery. Great team + patient education and confidence in surgeon = Success

The Perfect Experience - Wellesley, MA After consulting with multiple doctors and doing significant research online, my boyfriend and I chose Dr. Davidson for my breast augmentation. He is a very knowledgable surgeon, gave us straightforward answers and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. From our first consult to the follow up appointments and calls. He always answered or returned my calls, was very clear about expectations and simply made me feel at ease. This was my first surgery ever and I was very pleased with the process. Pam is a lovely and very accommodating person helping with appointments and listening to every feeling I was having before and after. Karen was continuously vigilant on the couple of days after the procedure and throughout the size decision process. This team leaves nothing to chance and they all took care not only of me as a patient but my boyfriend as a caregiver. You would be lucky to have them take care of your needs.

Breast Augmentation/Lift & Tummy Tuck - Wellesley, MA I lost over 100 pounds which resulted in a saggy tummy and no chest. I had very little self-esteem and needed to complete my journey to getting fit and healthy. Pro's - better looking and feeling body. Con's - risk that results are not what I would have expected. Pain to endure, but let me add that the pain medicine worked exceptionally well. Results - Phenomenal. I could not have guessed how nicely the surgery would turn out. I finally feel like a woman and am a much happier and content lady because of it! Jackie B. of Mass
