He utilizes the different ideas and techniques that he’s learned along the way to bring the most up-to-date, state-of-the-art, and — most importantly — safe plastic surgery to his patients.

He holds this near and dear to his heart, and wants to ensure that he makes all of his patients feel safe and comfortable during the entirety of their journey at Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery. His specialties include mommy makeovers, body contouring, breast procedures, and both surgical and non-surgical facial rejuvenation.

I cannot say enough things about Dr. Bates and his Nurse!!! From my first visit to surgery and PostOp, the care I received has been top notch. When I had a minor complication Dr Bates was quick to give me a call and answer any questions I had. His bedside manner is what really sets him apart. If you’re thinking about using Dr. Bates just do it!!!! I will use him again for future operations.
My favorite plastic surgeon. He is great.
Always great! I always feel reassured to be in the hands of Christopher Bates and the staff
Dr. Bates and staff were wonderful. He took time to listen to my concerns and to what I truly wanted. They were the best! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him!
I appreciate the responsiveness and attentiveness at every step from the first contact, to the reception, to the consultation.
