Dr Aras D Tijunelis M D

I came in for a couple of consultations because I was so nervous. Each one was scheduled last minute. He and his staff is very accommodating and understanding. Down to earth and friendly people. Day of surgery was relaxing, the nurse and anesthesiologist were AMAZING!!! I woke up in such as happy mode and that same smile is still there thanks to my amazing results. I was going against his recommendation but I am happy that I trusted him because he KNOWS what he is talking about!! Thank you so much!!! more

When i decided to get a breast augmentation i went to another plastic surgeon in the area, i had my date set up and everything something told me it just wasnt right. With working in a health care setting myself and having family and friends that are nurses I was told to call dr. tijunelis just to see what he had to offer and what his practice was like, calling one morning to set up consultation and needing a last min appt to fill in the same time frame as my pervious scheduled surgery they scheduled me in immediately. i got there and met with his anesthesiologist and the doctor himself and they were more than willing to offer me any kinda of ease and support needed to make the proper decision, he was helpful in telling me the proper size for my body (didnt wannt me to go to big due to thin skin from extreme weight loss) and most drs. would want you to go bigger (more $). They squeezed my surgery in the day i was hoping for and offered me great support, they had payment plans that allowed me to make payments with no interest cost. Dr. Tijunelis and staff put me at 100 percent ease and offered me assistance with my anxiety. My surgery was supposed to be an hr and half long and instead the dr took 4 hrs even though he had prior plans. Going in the the surgery i gave him the ok if needed to perform a breast lift, billing and making plans not to do a lift once the implants were in in performed a mini lift, then the staff made a decision that it was not to his perfection standard and went and performed a full breast lift. Happy with my results 1 1/2 months later the staff still accommodates me all the time not once have i kept my scheduled appt. i have always gone early due to my questions and concerns and not once have they made me feel like i was a bother. To me Dr. Tijunelis is an artist in his field, he strives for perfection and works to ensure your happiness and desired outcomes! Pros: extremely accmodating, honest even if its at a disadvantage to them, perfectionist even if its not cost effective Cons: N/A more

I saw Dr. T for a breast lift and augmentation. During the consultation phase, the whole office was fantastic. Anyway, I had concerns about the scars from day 1. When I went for my post op visits, concerns about my scars were pretty much dismissed. Also, I wanted a C cup and ended up with a D. When I expressed disappointment with the size (they really are too big), I was told that my breasts were ""cute"" and that I'd be coming back in the future to have them done even bigger. It really made me feel like the doc did everything based on his preferences rather than mine. I guess my breasts are better than before, but I can't say that I'm thrilled looking in the mirror or wanting to have them redone (elsewhere) when I can afford to do it again. Pros: Office staff great Cons: Dr. 90210 wannabe more

I had gastric by-pass surgery 12/06 and have lost over 150 lbs and am still working my way to my target weight of 180. I am a diabetic & was getting infections under the ?extra/excess? abdominal skin ? it was suggested that I have a panniculectomy to remove that extra skin. My GP Doctor, Surgeon & many friends suggested that I see Dr. Tijunelis. He & his group were wonderful to deal with. Never did I feel uncomfortable! Everyone I came in contact with was very personable and made me feel like ?it was all about me?. I did not want him to perform MAGIC - to remove all of the extra skin and fat/weight ? I just wanted to stop the infections and to feel more comfortable. My recovery took a bit longer than planned but I did heal with no infections! Pain management was a bit of a ?pain? because of the gastric by-pass surgery & pills not dissolving fast enough but we got through that. At work I sit at a computer for 10 hours daily & the change has been awesome! I get dressed without having to tuck in the ?extra? skin, I can sit without the additional weight resting on my legs (that used to make my legs numb). He did work MAGIC ? the result was so much better than I had even hoped for! I have a lot more ?excess? skin ? everywhere ? not that it?s in my plans ? but if I were interested in getting it removed someday ? I would go back to Dr. Tijunelis in a heart beat! more

I was referred to doctor Tijunelis by my husband who is also a sugeon. I needed to have a blepharoplasty (Eye lid lift) and he wanted to be certain to do an excellent job so there would not be marks or any complications, of which there were none. He also used a threading technique to lift my eyebrows. The results are very good, so good that no one has ever noticed what I had done. My crow's feet around my eyes are also gone. Pros: Knowledgable and realistic surgeon Cons: Theading technique lasts only a year or two more

After reading his website, I was all excited to be seen by this ""Doctor"". I went in, filled out the paperwork and then saw the nurse. The nurse was wonderful, she made me feel at ease and let me explain how after my fourth child, I could not seem to lose the weight. I was 142 in 2005 and a size 6. I got pregnant late in 2005 and then I just blew up. I have not been able to lose the baby weight since his birth August 2006. I cardio 3 xs a week and I watch what I eat. I also have Hashimoto's which makes it very difficult to lose the weight. Anyway, the ""Dr. "" came in, gave me an ugly look and asked me ""where do you want lipo?"" I told him: ""my back, upper arms, abdomen and inner thighs"". He said ""well, it sounds as though you want lipo to do it for you"". I just looked at him and was like ""are you kidding me??"" He said ""it wont help you, anyway"". He grabbed my side, a bit too roughly, and walked out of the room:. It was when he came back that he told me this information. So, instead, he gave me a pamphlet for a health clinic that helps seriously overweight and obese people (I am not obese). I said ""okay, if I get back down to 142, can we do something then?"" He said, ""you need to be less than 140 for me to help you. Besides, you have stretchmarks, we cant do it with stretchmarks. "". I left there feeling more like a cow than I started out feeling! Pros: Nice nurse Cons: he is a donkey's behind that does not have a sensitive bone in his body for anyone that weighs more than 130 lbs. more

I went to Dr. Tijunelis when I was sixteen, four years ago, regarding a breast reduction. As soon as my insurance company gave Dr. Tijunelis the ok to operate, he operated 2 weeks later. I went from a 36 double E to a 36 C and the results get more and more phenominal each day. I had the surgery a week before my 17th birthday. I am currently 20 and when I look in the mirror my scars are almost nonexistant, my neck and back problems are gone and my confidence is through the roof. I never had care like this from any other doctor. He didnt just perfom plastic surgery, he completly changed my life for the better. If anybody is considering plastic surgery of any kind, please make an effort to contact Dr. Tijunelis. also, if youre considering a reduction and would like to hear more i would be more than happy to answer any questions you might have. Pros: Outpatient surgery facility Cons: ... more

I went to Dr. Tijunelis for bilateral mastectomy reconstruction. I feel like I really lucked out with not only a surgeon who gave me excellent cosmetic results but one who treated me with interest during the entire procedure. I like when I feel I am in partnership with my physician in regards to decision making and he practices in that manner. He excels in care and concern. His office staff was consistantly wonderful. The way they schedule appointments I never waited more than a short time and most often was seen by him almost as I walked in. They were very accomidating with my appointment times. I would definitely recommend him. Pros: skilled, accomidating, caring more
