What patients say

• ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After a horrendous accident, I was fortunate to find Dr. Marc Soares. His reconstructive work was nothing short of extraordinary. He combines exceptional surgical talent with a true loving heart, creating results that exceeded anything I thought possible. Beyond his remarkable skill, he is compassionate, attentive, and genuinely available to his patients. Throughout the entire process, I felt supported, informed, and cared for. I will always be grateful for his expertise, dedication, and kindness. Highly recommended.

• I underwent a tummy tuck and breast lift performed by Marc Soares, M.D. to correct a long-standing, unsightly Caesarian Section scar and aging, sagging breasts. I'm 71 with the energy of a 45 year-old. Dr. Marc, as he prefers to be called, is not only a highly qualified and respected plastic & reconstructive surgeon in the Santa Barbara area but also a very compassionate and patient human being. He spent significant time explaining every aspect of the procedures during my consultation, answering my questions and providing information I was unaware of for my consideration. Calm, concerned, attentive and available, I felt comfortable with him immediately. Plus he has very competent staff! I was well taken care of. My father was an engineer so I was impressed with his engineering background from MIT as my preoperative experience was all about measurements. It comforted me. Dr. Marc is the son of Julio Soares, M.D., also a plastic & reconstructive SB surgeon known for his superior skills and a kind and gracious manner. I was a patient of his, too. Having had close to a dozen surgeries in my lifetime I can tell you these are not typical surgeons. Many of my friends are patients of Dr. Marc and some claim that he has restored or changed their lives for the better. I attest to that! I love my new torso! I am invigorated! An artist friend almost lost her foot when a large, heavy, decorative door fell on the back of her ankle. After several surgeries by Dr. Marc and months of healing we hiked together at Joshua Tree National Park over the holiday weekend. She had no pain and is eternally grateful to have that foot to walk on. It's been six months since my surgery and I look amazing in and out of my clothes! My scars are fading, I'm killing it at the gym and feel a renewed sense of empowerment, vitality and all-around sexy! Thank you Dr. Marc!

• I had the absolute best experience with Dr. Marc Soares. He is an incredibly gifted doctor with his skills but he is also kind and makes you feel comfortable around him. When you choose Dr. Soares, you also get Courtney Paxson! She is so knowledgeable and will spend as much time with you as needed until you feel comfortable with whichever procedure you want to have done or have had done. I will recommend Dr. Soares over and over again to all of my friends and anyone else who I meet that compliments me on the procedure that I had done.
