Blepharoplasty
Generally, I don’t write a review unless my experience is phenomenal. Well, I had just that experience with Dr. Walrath and his staff.I had always been unhappy with the dark circles and bags underneath my eyes. I had tried many over-the-counter remedies to no avail. Then I began looking online and found out that I might benefit from a lower blasphemy procedure. During my quest, I stumbled across a lower Blepharoplasty Youtube video from the Woolfson Eye Institute featuring Dr. Walrath on the overview of the procedure. I remember watching the video and saying, “wow this doctor knows his craft”. I thought that he must be in the New York or LA area. Whenever the video was over, I found out that he was in Atlanta. I quickly made an appointment.My initial visit with Dr. Walrath was mind blowing. I found him to be informative and detailed in his approach. He explained and procedure and showed me things around my eyelids that I had no knowledge of. I really felt comfortable in having him do the procedure without a second opinion. He did mention to me the ins and outs of other techniques that other doctors might use, but based on his professional expertise, he would perform x, y, and z on me.After my consultation, I decided to do the procedure. The staff walked me through the process and what to expect after the surgery.Fast forward four weeks. I am overjoyed with the results. I now have my confidence back. Thanks to Dr. Walrath for a job well done and executed. His attention to detail and top-notch professionalism is paramount. His staff was excellent.For anyone on the fence about the procedure with Dr. Walrath, let me put your mind at ease. You will be just like me, celebrating your new and improved look.Thanks again Dr. Walrath...
