Michelle was amazing with providing me information for what I needed done. Other places will try to sell you on whatever they offer, but if you have a specific goal, you want someone who’s going to listen to your desires.
I experienced this at Lou Plastic Surgery on day 1 !! I’ll be back for service soon. Thank you Michelle, you made my day !

Can’t begin to say how happy I have been with the attention I have received from Dr Lou and his entire staff from day 1! From the beginning, Amber and Erika have taken their time to listen, answer and address any questions or concerns I have had about the procedure I had done. Not to mention, the attention I have received from Dr Lou has been like no other plastic surgeon I have ever consulted with. Needless to say, the first time I consulted w him I knew I was in great hands because he actually took his time to listen to my concerns before addressing the issue. Dr Lou has never made me feel

Dr. Lou was a very sweet guy and I absolutely loved his staff. Everyone was so very pleasant and very easy to talk too. They answered all the questions I had and you can tell he truly cares for his patients. I can’t wait to get things rolling and have my mommy makeover that I have been dying to get for the past 12 years. Anyone looking for a fabulous easy going doctor definitely needs to call them up and schedule their consultation.

I came in to get a breast reduction, something I wanted and needed for a long time. I just wasn’t sure if I was eligible or if my insurance would cover cost. Dr. Lou’s handle everything with the insurance company which took stress off of me. Dr. Lou was very informative and made sure I understood everything. I was extremely nervous but Dr. Lou was very calm which put me at ease. I just had surgery and so far I extremely please. Can’t wait to see the results ❤️
Thank you Dr. Lou and your entire staff for taking great care of me and for making my dream come true.

Love everything about Dr. Lou & the girls at the office. They're so friendly and they made me feel comfortable. everything was detailed, every question I had in mind was answered, & I enjoyed coming here. I had my breast reduction done by Dr. Lou & I am so happy I did! life changer. The more we discussed it the more confident I felt. Dr. Lou is pretty cool & I recommend his office 10/10.
I plan on coming back in November for a mole removal & some fillers!

My experience with Dr Lou and his staff was extremely expectational. Dr Lou and his staff provided a wonderful and warm experience from start to finish. Amber provided an inviting greeting. Thank you Dr. Lou and Erica for taking the time to go over the my consultation clearly and explaining all of my options. I was referred over by a friend and can see why. Highly recommended.

My experience at Dr. Lou’s office was nothing short of the best from start to finish. The ladies Amber and Erica were amazing and super friendly. They gave off an energy that made me feel super comfortable front the first conversation over the phone to every in person visit once I touched down in Houston.
Dr. Lou is the best. Although this is my only surgery experience, if I had to do anything else again, it would be with him. He made me feel comfortable and reassured me during my video consultation. He was honest and I appreciated that. He never gave the impression of just wanting to take my

Dr. Lou and his staff are amazing! He took the time to listen to all my concerns and spoke of what he can do to remedy those areas. I loved that he was not in a rush, and how humble he is for being such a successful doctor!
Aside from that, Amber at the front desk is absolutely fantastic and I’ve had no trouble reaching her either my phone or text. Dr. Lou’s assistant Erica is very knowledgeable, and can answer all of your questions anytime. She also helped me feel comfortable since I was very anxious about my appointment. Erica is his right hand woman!
I would highly recommend Dr. Lou to

Dr. Lou and his staff are amazing. He is patient and very knowledgeable. He never makes you feel rushed. After my surgery he would return call’s promptly no matter the time of day! His goal is to exceed your expectations and he does a great job at it. His post surgery office visits made me feel calm and at ease. I’m very happy with my results and would consider him for any future surgeries!

I just called and made an appointment for a consultation last week. I get a VM today that they need to adjust the time a little, after several calls to return their call since I kept getting voice mail, they want to schedule not only the time but a different day. They moved offices and hadn’t worked out their clinic hours.......then why did you make my appointment? If something that minor is an issue then I am really concerned that if I have a emergency or a major issue, will it be handled?

I recently went in for a consultation. As I expected his entire staff was prompt, courteous and beautiful. He did the examination and answered all my questions thoroughly. I am a retired CPA medical practice consultant of 38 years and chose Dr. Lou not only for his bedside manner but for knowledge of his extremely artful work with usually almost invisible scarring (but they will never tell you that). I will be back after completing my international travels through the end of 2018.

I had a very difficult procedure done in 2015 and even though Dr. Lou had to work through some serious complications the outcome was exactly what I was hoping for. I will be going back to Dr. Lou late this year… or early next to do what I set out to do for myself and my recently deceased Mom to change my body so I can be the best I can possibly be. This last procedure will complete what I've been wanting to do for myself. Thank you Dr. Lou.
