Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Extremely pleased
From the first consultation to the surgery to the follow up I cannot ask for anything more. Dr. Castellon is very knowledgeable and skilled. His entire staff are top shelf. They showed me respect, courtesy and patience.

Deceptive - Avoid at all cost!!
Dr. Castellon is a fraud, a swindler who lies to patients and promises to do surgeries knowing the results will not be what the patient expected. Furthermore, Dr. Castellon requires a 50% deposit up front. I paid the 50%, and the assistant said that if the surgery is canceled, there would be a 50% fee on the refund. Today, I called about getting my refund, and Jenna told me "no refunds on deposits." That is criminal. I am going to sue Dr. Castellon in Small Claims Court for nonfulfillment of services and for deception.

The WORST!
I went to Dr Castellon in Jan of 2019 for breast reconstruction. It should have been a 2 operation and finish in 6 months but took him 6 operations and almost 2 years. Infections were the first problems (which he didn’t look at cultures for 4 days so I was on the wrong antibiotic for those extra days). Gave me a hematoma (which an infectious disease Dr had to tell me about and Castellon said he knew I had already). He popped an expander. Put an additional scar on me that he didn’t tell me he was going to put so I’m cut across and under both breasts. Off center cleavage which he said he would fix but didn’t. Then after the final surgery when I questioned him on what to expect, he literally cussed me out. Told me I was turning into a cosmetic [RS bleep] and I need to stop busting his [RS bleep] balls. Talk about surprised! Not even two days out of surgery and to be treated like this?! He has issues. Don’t bother seeing this Dr.

In 2010 I decided to have a tummy tuck and a breast augmentation. I was referred to Dr. Castellon by a good friend. I found a very warm and caring staff, from the receptionist to Dr. Castellon himself. He gave advice but listened to my ideas and worked with me to come to the final decisions. A couple of years ago I found out that I had skin cancer on my face above my lip. I was terribly upset and concerned that I would have a huge scar or be missing a piece on my lip. Dr. Castellon was my first thought as my dermatologist was telling me that I would need surgery to remove this as it could be very deep. I contacted his office and set up the appointment. Dr. Castellon was truly kind and assured me that he could due a minimal scar and would make sure that I was free of the cancerous spot. He was amazing and you can barely see where it was. I kept my lip and my smile. I would send anyone that needs fillers, breasts, a tuck and even a major thing like skin cancer removal to Dr. Castellon.

I met Dr Castillion over 4 months ago after I was recommended by my PCP for breast reduction surgery. When I first met him I was very impressed by his caring and gentle bedside manor. He was very knowledgeable and spent time answering all of my questions. His office staff are all Professional and friendly as well as caring and helpful and made me feel comfortable every time I came in to his office. My surgery was very successful and I am extremely pleased with my results. I highly recommend Dr Castellon and will definitely go back for any future procedures.

I first went to Dr. Castellon’s office for a simple consultation about a breast reduction to see what my options were for surgery; however, when I left the office, I had my surgery scheduled and my first deposit was made! I was worried with me being a college student that we might not be able to link up our schedules in order for me to have the surgery; but Dr. Castellon’s staff is SO AMAZING that we were able to find a time that fit into my busy class schedule. He is very understanding that we all have separate lives outside of the procedures, and he is willing to work with people in order to find the best time that suits them! He also does an AMAZING job at making the consultations both informative and educational. He walks you through the procedure, explaining what exactly he will be doing in the OR and he will answer any, and every question you have. As said before, his staff is PHENOMINAL, and even when Dr. Castellon is not in the office, his staff can answer any questions you hav

Choosing Castellon Surgery Center was truly a blessing! When I met with Dr. Castellon, we discussed reasonable expectations for my transformation to remove excessive skin from weight loss. He explained that my surgeries would be in three stages: Surgery 1 - abdominoplasty, liposuction to flanks, repair old scarring from a prior surgery Surgery 2 - lower body lift, liposuction to back, brachioplasty Surgery 3 - vertical thigh lift. All my concerns and questions were discussed prior to each surgery regarding expectations, pain management, and outcome. I had minimal complications after all three of the surgeries and my recovery challenges were true as discussed. Post-op anytime I had a concern or question Castellon Plastic Surgery Center made time for me – even on short notice. As for Dr. Castellon’s hand-picked staff; Barbra, Kathy, Sherrel, Ruthie, Janessa, and Amanda, they are respectful, kind-hearted, and sincere (and fun!). Everyone was marvelous and I am thrilled with results!

Our 16-year-old daughter had been very self-conscience of the shape of her nose. She never wanted a picture showing her profile. Dr. Castellon performed Rhinoplasty in July. Dr. Castellon did an amazing job! . She has been very happy with the results. Her self esteem has grown. People comment on how beautiful she looks. The staff are all friendly and professional. The wait time is about 10 minutes.

I never had surgery. My sister, a breast cancer survivor, insisted on Dr.Mauricio Castellon because of his expertise as a plastic surgeon, and her own personal experience. He listens to your concerns, answers your questions, and explicitly explains your options so that you are comfortable. His bedside manner on the day of the surgery is calming and impeccable. He has a true calming effect that makes you feel secure knowing you are in his care. I appreciate his proactive follow up and compassionate care, which extends to his office staff. I can’t say enough about their continued support. My results are amazing and astounding! I highly recommend Dr. Castellon!

One of my breast implants ruptured and I was very nervous about having to redo my breast augmentation. It was very painful the first time. I really was considering having them removed. I was 29 when I had them done. I thought I’m 45 almost 50, do I really care about how I look? It took me a long time to decide. I knew I wanted to go with Dr. Castellon. He came recommended by my primary care physician, OBGYN along with others who know of him. When I had gone for my annual mammograms they would ask who I plan to have redo my implants. I’d tell them Dr Castellon. They would tell me they have seen his work, their really nice results. It took me 5 years to decide. I am so happy I did it again!! I feel so beautiful! 45 is just a number. Dr Castellon and his staff were so supportive of my concerns and needs. I look forward to continuing my cosmetic needs as I age with Dr. Castellon and Staff!

I just had an extended tummy tuck and flank liposuction by Dr Castellon, due to a 105 pound weight loss. He has done a phenomenal job. He has been attentive and always available. He is very good at explaining and taking the time to make you feel at ease. His office staff have been wonderful and gracious. He got back to me after surgery both times we called the answering service in less than 15 minutes, getting to speak directly to him. I was extremely nervous to get this surgery since it was a lot of skin removal and a long time under anesthesia, 3 hours, but he has exceeded my expectations. This surgery isn’t a walk in the park, it takes a lot out of you, but I am so grateful for the compassion that Dr Castellon and his office have shown me, I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to do this type of surgery. He is a gifted surgeon.

Dr. Castellon is WONDERFUL! I have been a client of his since 2007. I trust him implicitly and you can too!! On 4/26/18, I had the FACEtite procedure performed by Dr. Castellon with AMAZING results! Folks, this procedure is a game changer! My lower jawline and neck are firmer and tighter, mimicking the way I looked in my late 30's, early 40's. He is compassionate, caring and kind, his bedside manner is excellent!! His staff is extremely patient and helpful, always going the extra mile!!
