Testimonials and Reviews
J.H.
Dr. Tatch took the time to listen. He was thorough in assessing and evaluating the reason for my visit. I am fearful of dental procedures and elected IV sedation. The procedure went well and I have minimal to no pain following the oral surgery.

I would love to share my recommendation about Nicole. She is amazing, professional, and gentle at all services that I have every month, and especially like my face after microneedling, I feel like I have brand new skin, soft and smooth! Thank you, thank you, thank you! She is the best.

This MedSpa is amazing! Dr. Tatch did wonderfully on my lips with juvederm! He made sure I was comfortable every step of the way and they look perfect! He did exactly what I asked for. His assistant Mai was great. Super helpful and so friendly. My daughter and I also got treatment done by Kate and she was fantastic! Explains everything and really knows what she is doing.
