My surgical experience was great, and I think Dr. Pan did a really good work. To be clear my recommendation is NOT a complaint but a suggestion.
I saw Dr. Pan in her office once and it was 5 months prior to my surgery. I’m very surprised leading up to the surgery there was no other conversations with Dr. Pan or the nurses. However, they did contact me for my lab works. Most information I received was on YouTube because I did not feel I had enough details on my surgery. There definitely should have been a meeting with Dr. Pan leading up to the surgery or her nurses.
In any case, I have no complaints about the staff, my encounter with them were always pleasant, especially after my surgery. Dr. Pan is a very talented surgeon. I think it’s the patient’s responsibility to be informed, but the office could have been a bit more involved in that educational process. I am extremely happy with my results. I would highly recommend them.

I would strongly recommend the team at Esana to take care of any if your plastic surgery needs. I had a complicated case. Nevertheless, Dr. Pan and her team provided excellent service and care. I was well informed and cared for at each step of the process, especially throughout my post operative care. My results were better than anticipated. My surgery provided the jump start I needed for overall health improvement. I’m grateful to have found Dr. Pan.

I had the best experience at Esana. I went in after an implant of mine had popped and Dr. Pan made me feel so comfortable and at ease. They got me in right away and my surgery was so easy. My first time getting implants I was out of commission for 2 weeks. With Dr. Pan I was not even sore after 4 days! I highly recommend them and say that they not only are professional but caring!
