Best experience all around from the consultation, pre Ops, the surgery, to the followup appointments. The Team is awesome especially Courtney and Dr. Soares is an amazing surgeon! I felt well informed and comfortable throughout the process and my only regret is that I did not do this sooner

I highly recommend Dr Soares. He is very patient and kind. An incredibly skilled plastic surgeon. I’m very satisfied with my results. I would recommend him to anyone requiring reconstruction surgery for breast cancer. He is a wonderful physician to have on your side

Dr. Soares and his staff are amazing. Every encounter I have with them has been a pleasure. They are very prompt, thorough, kind, and caring and Dr. Mark Soares's skills are unsurpassed. I trust him completely and I couldn't ask for a better doctor and team to work with. I'm so blessed and grateful to have the opportunity. Thank you!

Based on an immediate need, Dr Soares was professional, engaging, caring, throughout my perceived emergency need. He additionally, gave of his time and attention at the end of the day, and after hours; making us feel individually a priority. The Doctor's staff and office followed the same professional demeanor. I have no issues recommending Dr. Soares in making the best of a stressful situation.

I needed extensive reconstruction of my nose because of skin cancer damage. Dr Mills was the best in my experience so far and unfortunately I have undergone quite a few repair type surgeries over the years. Her care and dedication was great, I trusted her judgement immediately and she did not disappoint. I am ready to continue on to the next step as I am so delighted with the results so far! I cannot recommend Dr Mills too highly.

My son-in-law, Kyle Self (a nurse at Cottage) highly recommended Dr. Soares. I came in for an eyelid consult (upper blepharoplasty). I found Dr. Soares direct, clear, reassuring, gentle, personable and flexible. I truly appreciate the flexibility he offered in scheduling (as I live in Sacramento) and pricing (as I have Medicare but through Kaiser) for the procedure. I plan to schedule Dr. Soares to do the work the next time I'm in Santa Barbara (probably August but maybe June -- as you suggested I'll contact your office 2-3 weeks prior). Thank you!. And enjoy your trip to Mexico!

From my first phone call to schedule a consultation I’ve been met with kindness from all the staff, Dr Soares and his PA Courtney. When I decided to schedule my tummy tuck I was most certainly concerned with if this was the best route for me. Dr Marc Soares gave me options and let me make my own decision. I never felt any sort of pressure at all.
Now that I am almost 2 weeks from recovering from my tummy tuck I feel even more cared for. Dr Marc even gives his cell number that he will answer for any questions. He is so kind and humble. I also work with him at the hospital but believe it or not have not seen a lot of his cosmetic work. (I’m part time and his cosmetic days are my days off) But I can assure you…He is an artist. The first time I saw my new slim body I almost cried. My stomach looks amazing. Shapely. And the incision is nice and low and my belly button is adorable. Those two things were very important to me. At my post op he explained to me exactly where he did lips and why. I’m just so happy that I did this surgery and that I chose Dr Marc. A genuine nice man with fantastic surgical skills. My girlfriend is now considering a tummy tuck too but only with Dr Soares.

Hi,
I have struggled with my weight all my life So I had sleeve surgery in 2020 and after my weight loss, I still had a large spare tire and love handles.
I had a tummy tuck and liposuction by Dr Gina Mills, on 2/24/23 and I am so happy with my results. Just 2 weeks ago! I cry when I look at myself now in pictures and mirror. I am 53 and feel beautiful, sexy and more like the person I was meant to be.
This truly gave me the confidence lift that I needed to go to the gym, my tummy won’t be in the way , I will be rocking bikinis in Las Vegas by the pool, wearing clothes I never thought I would wear.
Thank you so much !!!
This office has an amazing staff as well.
Dr Mills, Thank you so much !!
I can’t thank you enough for what you have done for me !!
❤️Sheri.

Emergency surgery in the middle of the night. Dr. Soares managed to get an operating crew and did an incredible job reconstructing my mouth/lips.

After losing 147 pounds I had a lot of extra skin felt super self conscious about my body I didn’t want to travel so far did my research and found Gina mills it was the best decision I made I told her I wanted to look as natural as possible and for people not to notice she did that and so much more for me she trully took the time to hear me out not as doctor but real person and was the sweetest person I have met I had not one worry because I truly felt so comfortable in her care .I thank her so much for this life changing results I couldn’t have picked better surgeon
