Dear Doctor Rau,
I cannot thank you enough for the positive experience you and your staff provided me. From the very first phone call I made to set up my consultation, I was treated like family. During my consultation you not only took your time and answered ALL my questions but you made me feel comfortable and confident that I was making the right decision. Even during my pre-op appointment when I came in with my silly list of likes and dislikes you were patient and understanding. Then there are my results… Wow! What can I say? You did an amazing job! I’m extremely happy and have absolutely no complaints. Honestly, you exceeded my expectations! You are truly a gifted surgeon! But what makes you and your staff even more special is your humility. Your class and dignity shine through– something rarely seen in an industry full of boastfulness and pride.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience! I’ll be back in the near future!
Sincerely,
Tiffany T

I have been thinking about plastic surgery for probably the last 10 years. Throughout these years I had been doing research on different doctors (through the internet, consultations, speaking with friends, etc), but could not make a decision as to which doctor I would go see or even if I would have plastic surgery. Recently my friend suggested that I go speak with Dr. Rau because his wife and daughter had a good experience with him. My first consultation with Dr. Rau went well; he did not push me into making a decision and gave me all the necessary information.I decided to book the date for my surgery, and even in my pre-surgery appointment I was still a little bit scared and apprehensive about getting this procedure done. It was Dr Rau and his staff that put me at ease. On the day of the surgery I was not nervous at all and felt like I was in good hands. The surgery lasted about 2 hours. I did not feel discomfort; in fact I was comfortable and well taken care of by the nursing staff.After the procedure Dr Rau followed up with me many times to make sure I was healing properly. I did not have any complications and healed fairly quickly. I am very satisfied with the final result and I owe it all to Dr. Rau. The final result is terrific and I look very natural. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done!

After losing 100 lbs I still had a huge tummy. I felt discouraged because there was nothing I could do to disguise it. I met with Dr. Rau and he explained the procedure in detail along with the possible risks. He was very understanding about my concerns and answered all my questions with patience and concern. And you couldn’t ask for a better staff. Kim and Clare are always encouraging, cheerful, fun to talk to. And most of all, in addition to the regular follow-up schedule Dr. Rau sets up, Kim and Clare follow-up to see how I am doing on a regular basis. I appreciate them very much.
This procedure was the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. It even scores higher than losing a lot of weight. My husband and friends tell me I am a different person. I look and act different and walk different. I have more confidence. I’ve been told I even look younger. I have a hard time deciding what to wear because I have so many new, cute clothes to choose from. I feel better about myself and as a result I take better care of myself. When my friends and co-workers first saw me after the surgery, they were astounded at how different I looked.
Thanks Dr. Rau to you and your wonderful staff. I couldn’t have chosen a better surgeon to do this procedure for me. And I don’t hesitate to recommend Dr. Rau to my friends…..they have seen the results.

I was initially referred to by my primary Doctor to have a small mass on my lip removed. Doctor Rau seemed like a perfectionist and was very attentive to my needs, even though it was a very minor procedure. I came back to Dr.Rau to have a filler put into my cheeks and BOTOX in my forehead. I have been very pleased with my results and plan to go back for more fillers.

Doctor Rau,
I just wanted to thank you for doing such a great job in “correcting my body.” I wouldn’t trust anyone but you! You went beyond your services as a doctor and friend, and I appreciate what you did for me. I feel great and look like myself again thanks to you!
With special thanks,

Before I had Liposuction, my arms looked disfigured. Dr. Rau did lipo to repair my arms and now they are smooth enough that I am not ashamed to wear a tank top. Dr. Rau also did lipo on my waist, stomach and pubic area. Before I looked like a rooster and now I can look in the mirror and see that I have a great shape. No other doctors would remove the fat from my upper belly but Dr. Rau did! People, Friends, and Family members noticed a remarkable difference right away! It has been five months since my surgery and I continue to look better everyday! I will even wear a bikini for my husband and feel happy when he looks at me. I trust Dr. Rau totally, and would refer him to my most loved ones, he really cares about his patients and his staff is very attentive.

My experience with Dr. Rau and his staff was outstanding! I had a breast augmentation in May and am beyond thrilled with the results. Dr. Rau is fantastic (and cute). I knew exactly what I wanted- VERY BIG BOOBS- and he delivered. The girls are friendly, helpful and professional. I absolutely cannot say enough about my positive experience with this office. I am a very happy customer, and I highly recommend Dr. Rau.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visits to Dr. Rau’s office. The friendly staff always greeted me by name. Efficient and professional; the wait times were minimal. My visits with Dr. Rau were unhurried. Dr. Rau took the time to explain the details of my procedure, provide the necessary information, and answer my questions. I was quite confident with his surgical expertise. The procedure met my expectations, and I am happy with the results. I highly recommend Dr. Rau and his staff. My experience was enjoyable and warm.

I incurred multiple nose injuries from cheerleading. When I went to see Dr. Rau I was preparing for my third nose surgery, and I was very apprehensive. Dr. Rau and his staff were so welcoming, I instantly felt safe! Dr. Rau is extremely professional; yet he is personable and fun to work with. I completely trusted Dr. Rau and his staff to perform my surgery and to oversee my post-operative care. The service you receive from Dr. Rau and his staff is professional, caring, personal, and is of the highest medical standard. I am very happy with the results of my surgery, but I am even happier to have had the opportunity to work with Dr. Rau and his amazing staff!

Dr. Rau and his nurses were amazing! They made me feel comfortable, welcomed, and confident with my procedure. Dr. Rau informed me of what exactly was going to be done and gave me the best and worst case scenarios. When I woke up from the procedure, Dr. Rau was there to tell me everything went well. My procedure was successful, and I can breathe so much better. There were no major changes, just like I asked for. My experience was awesome!

Dr Rau and his staff are amazing! From the initial consult to the end of my first follow-up on my breast augmentation, Doctor Rau answered all of my questions. His staff also can answer questions if you are not able to reach Dr. ASAP. My Breast augmentation was so fast and the results are amazing. I got silicone implant and they look and feel real. I recommend Dr. Rau to all my friends and family. I referred my sister, and she is also happy with her results!

The first six months of the year 2010, I noticed my neck was looking bad and I was begining to have a turkey neck. I did not like this. I shopped around for a Plastic Surgeon, and I choose Doctor Rau. What a wise decision I made.
He listened to me, and did exactly what I wanted. I was VERY pleased with my results and I would do it all over again, in a heart beat.
I expected a lot of pain, but I used the pain pills only twice! It really was a piece if cake!!

My experience was great! So outstanding I have referred two friends. I believe Dr. Rau is a professional and most importantly a decent human being. The office staff of Clare and Kimberly also added to my experience by making me feel comfortable; a smile and sense of humor is always appreciated. I will keep referring people to your practice.

From my first visit with Dr. Rau, I knew that he was going to be the doctor that I wanted when choosing to have my elective surgeries. The moment I met him, I knew I was in good hands. He answered all my questions, and spent quality time explaining the procedures, how they are done, and what I can expect the outcome to be after the surgery. I would have to say that the before and after care that I received from Dr. Rau and his staff has been beyond. I am truly happy with my results and couldn’t have asked for a better doctor. I believe so much in him as a doctor, that I have already spread the word about how wonderful he is to my friends and family, and I know that anyone who is a patient of his will never be disappointed.
