"Dr. Christopher Bates and his staff are kind, compassionate, and very caring. I am very pleased with the results of my breast reduction. He is a true artist. I would recommend him to anyone who asks for a plastics surgeon."
"The decision I made to have a breast reduction was obviously a very serious one. It would be unusual if anyone ever said that was a choice that was easy to make. But I’ve been dealing with neck and shoulder pain for a very long time, and I finally made the decision to go forward with it. I cannot express in words how happy I am with Dr. Bates, his surgical team, the nursing team and the staff at Ponte Vedra plastics. Here is a list of why: 1. The decision to have the surgery was not for cosmetic reasons, and they understood that. I felt like every single person genuinely cared for my emotional state of health, my mental state of health and my physical well-being. 2. The results so far have been fantastic. The healing is going very smoothly and quickly. Some people go into the surgery and they offer what they call wish photos, which is what they desire to look like when the surgery is complete. I did not do this. I simply told Dr. Bates please make me look proportionate - that is all I desire. Dr. Bates is the consummate professional and his talent and skill are apparent, because he was able to give me exactly that. 3. The environment of Ponte Vedra plastics is very serene, calming, clean, and welcoming. They do a very good job of putting the patient and family at ease on their big day. 4. I would trust my own family in his hands, his surgical team, and his nursing staff. Thank you specifically to Kim, Rosi, and Dr. Bates. If you are looking for a place that genuinely has their patients’ best interest at heart, this is it."

"I can’t begin to express how happy I am with the results of my breast augmentation. Dr Bates and his nurse Rosie took such amazing care of me from the very first consultation to every post op appointment. Dr Bates did amazing work. I told him what I was looking for and he more than delivered. When I first saw myself I knew I made the right choice with pvps and Dr Bates. I’m 3 months post op and my breasts look perfect. I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner. Thank you Dr. Bates and Rosie for taking such great care of me and making me look stunning 😍 If you are thinking about a breast augmentation, this is the place to go!"

"I really liked all that Dr. Bates has planned for my breast reconstruction. Actually he was the second Dr. I've gone to for a consultation. Let's just say he blew the competition away. I can't wait to get started."
"I highly recommend this practice. I have just had a breast reduction, something I have wanted to do for years. My surgery was performed by Christofer Bates he is very professional and so nice to work with. I am very happy with the outcome."
"My first surgery was a breast augmentation but this second surgery was an implant exchange with lift. After 3 kids and weight fluctuation my girls weren’t perky and happy as they once were , they were sad, huge and saggy. I was a 34F and post surgery I am now 34DD. Dr. Bates and his team are absolutely phenomenal. From the moment I met Dr. Bates he made me feel comfortable and confident he could give me exactly what I was looking for and he did! I didn’t even know the size of the implants I was getting but through their knowledge and technology Dr. Bates gave me the perfect size and was able to give me the look I desired . I feel great and I’m so very excited with the results. My procedure was done in the PVPS clinic, the staff was very accommodating and I couldn’t ask for a better experience. Do not hesitate to visit Dr. Bates and his PVPS team, he takes so much pride in his work and will take care of you even after your surgery to ensure everything is where it’s supposed to be. You will not be disappointed. Best decision ever !"
