"Dr. Leveque performed my tummy tuck and breast augmentation. I am almost two weeks out of surgery and recovering beautifully thanks to the support from her staff and careful care instructions. Leading up to the procedure I was well educated by Dr. Leveque and the staff at GCPS. The surgery itself was just fine, I was well prepared and went home the same day. My incisions are remarkably small! I know they will heal well. My post op visits have also been so helpful. I had initially had a quote from another surgeon and opted to come here. I am so glad that so did."
"Just a note of Thanks to Dr. Patterson and his staff. I am so thankful for everyone in his office for taking such good care of me. Dr. Patterson is one of the Best doctors in Pensacola. I decided back in 2010 to have breast implants put in due to nursing 3 children. Dr. Patterson is a perfectionist and I am thankful for that. Dr. Patterson also did a breast reduction for my daughter due to severe back pain and now the back pain is gone and we were able to get her off of pain medicine. May 2024 I had my implants removed due to having rheumatoid arthritis and severe back pain. As of now I am 3 days post opp and feel so much better. I wish I could remember everyone’s name in his office because they deserve Recognition for going above and beyond being helpful. Gulf Coast Plastic surgery is Voted The Best in Pensacola if you ask me. Thank-you for your expert care and saving me from a dangerous back surgery. I have so much more energy now and I am beyond blessed having extraordinary care! I would also like to say that The Cornerstone Surgery Center was Amazing. Shout out to such a Amazing team. The anesthesiologist made me feel like there was nothing to be afraid of and she was right. I feel like they are the Best team with over 50 years combined experience in Pensacola!! Keep up the Great work! Tanya Ballard"
"Everyone at this office and that works for Dr Patterson was absolutely that kindest! Dr Patterson is so nice and compassionate about his work and patients, he takes the time to listen and reassure you when you are a bit anxious. I would highly recommend him with your plastic surgery needs. I had breast implants removed and it was a good decision! The nurses especially Ms. Ashley so sweet and understanding and they listen and ask questions and truly make sure you are good to go no matter the situation. Thank you all very much for your guidance to a big decision I made."
"Dr. Patterson and the entire staff from the receptionists at the front desk, to the nurses, and surgery coordinators have been AMAZING at Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery! Everyone was wonderful with their affiliated surgical center as well! I experienced a saline breast implant rupture. The initial implant surgery was done 10+ years ago and performed by another surgeon who is no longer in the area. I was referred to Dr. Patterson by my previous surgeon. I was able to be seen quickly, have all my questions answered, and anxiety put at ease. My breast implant removal surgery and recovery have gone wonderful! I would highly recommend Dr. Patterson to anyone who is looking for an experienced plastic surgeon who genuinely cares about your health , well being, and giving the best possible result for your unique body."
"The staff and Dr. Patterson are up to date and knowledgeable in their practice. Being 70 years old, I most appreciated Dr. Patterson’s candor in his explanations to me as to what to expect on every level of a breast reduction/lift from pre-op to post-op. He explained every minute detail of the procedure and was patient with every question/fear that I had. He previously did breast augmentations for two of my daughters whom were pleased with his attention to detail, e.g. symmetry, etc. Feeling confident in Dr. Peterson’s care."
"Loved having appointment at Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery. Dr. Patterson was very wonderful in explaining everything to me and answering any and all of the questions I had. He also told very very detailed information about all options available and any risks with it, which was mostly none. He was very professional and helpful. I had liposuction in mind for breast enlargement, but since I am very lean, Dr. Patterson suggested the implants for a better results. Although I was scared of implants due to the bad verbiage it has online, Dr. Patterson explained the myths and made me feel very comfortable and at ease. At the end of the appointment I have changed my mind and decided to get implants instead. Thanks to so much detailed information and feedback from Dr. Patterson. His staff was also very friendly and helpful. Overall my visit was great and I walked out relaxed and curtain about the upcoming procedure. Don’t read the internet on those procedures, it will scare you off, go to Dr. Patterson who will debunk all myths and tell you everything to make your mind at ease and your options open. Strongly suggest their office for cosmetic surgery !"
"Dr Patterson listens to you! I felt heard. I am sure I will be using him for years to come. I did my research for years before choosing Dr Patterson!!♡If you want that waist cinched, and breast implants ,and still look natural Nathan patterson is your guy!!!!"
"So far I have had a wonderful experience with GCPS and Dr. Butler! The staff is always very nice, moving swiftly and efficiently. I have wanted a breast aug for almost 10 years and I’m so so happy with my results so far! It hasn’t even been a month since my surgery, but I can already tell they are everything I wanted them to be. Dr. Butler and his nurse were/are very informative and knowledgeable during my appointments and have helped put a lot of my anxiety to rest when it came to my surgery and post op concerns! I have already recommended this place to a few of my friends. I will definitely return in the future for any cosmetic procedures I may want!!"
"Had absolutely the best experience with Dr. Butler and his entire staff from consult to surgery follow-up. I have been thinking about a breast implant revision for about 10 years and have had my implants for 20 plus years. I’ve not been happy with the heaviness and neck and shoulder pain from the added weight of the implants. Dr. Butler was able to exchange to a significantly smaller implant while avoiding the need for a lift. I didn’t know if this was possible, but he was able to find the perfect implant size to accomplish this and I already feel a huge relief in my shoulders and neck. I also look very natural, which is something I could never say with my implants before. I’m thankful I found Dr. Butler and would recommend him to anyone considering an exchange."
"Dr. Patterson and his staff are AMAZING. After having a baby and breastfeeding my breast were not the way I wanted them to look. He spent an hour with me for my initial consult going over every possible question and concern I had - I booked my surgery that day. Ended up going with a breast augmentation and breast lift. Pre-op, surgery day and post-op appointments were all seamless. I never once felt uncomfortable or worried about the decision I made. I am so happy with the results. It’s the best thing I ever did for myself. Could not recommend Dr. Patterson and his staff enough. Do it!!"
"Now that I'm 7.5 weeks post op I feel ready to share my review. I underwent a mastopexy and breast augmentation with Dr. Butler on 11/15/23! From day one (consultation) to Friday (6 week post op check) every single encounter has been wonderful. Dr. Butler and the office staff have gone above and beyond for me. He was knowledgeable and gave a very thorough explanation of the process. I had the surgery at North Florida surgery center in Pensacola. Everything went so smoothly, and the nurses/anesthesiologists were great. Recovery was smooth, one small hiccup that was addressed immediately and resolved! I'm very very very happy with my decision to use GCPS for my surgery. It was definitely the confidence boost I needed. If you're in the market, these guys are great!!!"
"Amazing results, Dr.Patterson did a fabulous job and I am very pleased with my breast augmentation. The staff at the surgery center and at his office were very accommodating. I am looking forward to scheduling more procedures with him"
"I had a consultation with Dr. Patterson for breast augmentation. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. They have an avatar like thing that let's you see each size on you and have you wear each implant in a bra to see how it feels. Surgery scheduled next month. Super excited."
"I have waited 11 long years to have Dr. Butler do my breast implant swap. He does excellent breast lol.. I am 3 days post op and they look amazing. The office was kind and attentive!! So happy!!"
"They have made my transition back to having no breast so much easier for me. Dr. Leveque has been very professional and explained to me the possibility of what I might be faced with if I decided to change to saline implants again. The staff is very professional and friendly. She told me about the Hengold dermatologist that I am now seeing for this foreign granulara skin disease. I am praying for good results. I can’t think of anyone other than Dr. Leveque that I would have wanted to use. I think she is the best💕"
"Dr. Patterson preformed my breast augmentation & by far the best surgeon! He is absolutely amazing, his staff is so friendly & love answering any questions you have for them. Post op was beyond amazing with the help of the staff who love their jobs! Thank you Dr. Patterson for making me feel so incredible."
"I had a consultation today for a breast augmentation and it went very well. I was asked about my desired outcome and was given options to help achieve that goal. I can’t wait for surgery time, I know I’m in great hands!"
"I chose Dr. Patterson not only for his amazing work but his honesty and straight forward information and feedback. I never felt like I was going to be set up for failure and always left fully trusted in his ability and knowledge. I had lipo on my outer legs and a breast augmentation and would 100% go back to Dr. Patterson for anything else. GCPS is a lovely place and overall the staff is friendly too."
"I cannot say enough good things about this facility and it’s staff. I waited/wanted a breast augmentation for 15 years before I finally had the procedure. I researched a lot surgeons before picking GCPS. I am beyond impressed and happy with the entire process. The office is immaculately clean and the office staff are some of the sweetest women you will meet. They answered all of my questions- all 1 million, and they made the payment and scheduling process extremely easy. The nursing staff is incredibly kind and helpful- again, they answered all of my questions, helped me pick my size, and were amazing the day of my procedure. Dr. Patterson did my surgery and the man is a gift to plastic surgery. He is so informative before, during and after. He treated me with the upmost respect and my results turned out better than I imagined. I am so happy with my decision to choose this facility. If ever I deceive to have another procedure done, I will without question, be returning to Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery. I cannot recommend them enough."
"Very pleased with the outcome of my breast surgery performed by Dr. Patterson. I highly recommend him & his staff is great!"
"I knew I had to replace my very old saline implants. But I did not want a lift. I was terrified of the scars. Dr. Leveque professionally explained the need for the lift and I acquiesced. I am so very grateful I trusted her. She is truly an artist. I could not be more happy with my results. I have a history of scarring terribly. What she did is magical. She is a true artist. I am in love with the results."
"Heard Dr. Butler was the best in Pensacola. Breast implant results prove he is extremely skilled!"

"1 month post-op breast augmentation & overjoyed with whole experience - This was the best experience from start to finish!! Dr. Butler is so kind and informative and his staff is equally as helpful. From the very first phone call to the last follow-up appointment I was overjoyed with the whole experience. If anyone is on the fence about a procedure, don't hesitate to get a consultation. Dr. Butler really is the best."
"12 days-post-op breast augmentation & results are just as amazing as he is! - I just had my surgery October 4th. Dr.Butler is an AMAZING Doctor. His bed side manner is phenomenal.

"Delivered main goal - cleavage! Breast augmentation after I explanted - Dr Butler performed my breast augmentation after I had explanted and was left completely disfigured. From the very first consultation, Dr Butler listened to my concerns and my main goals...cleavage!! Boy, did he deliver!! I am totally in love with my new breasts! His excellence didn't stop there though. I have just returned from my 6 week post op and he was just as attentive as ever. One of the best qualities in a surgeon is that they continue to care for you way after your surgery and Dr Butler does just that. His team is also friendly and extremely efficient at there jobs, making you feel very comfortable right from the start. If you are considering using Dr Butler and his team, honestly, don't hesitate. You will be in the BEST hands!"
"Dr. Butler is SO. FREAKING. FABULOUS! He, without a doubt, has the best “bedside” manner out of any doctor I have ever come across. And I’m a nurse. I had a breast augmentation performed by Dr. Butler this past summer and I am IN LOVE with my new breasts. They look exactly like my original breasts, only BIGGER and BETTER! If you are questioning whether or not to have a breast augmentation, just do it. I waited 10 years to take the leap and I only wish I had done it sooner. You won’t regret it, especially if you choose Dr. B! Promise!"

Dr. Butler was right on target about the outcome.With that said, I would highly recommend Dr Butler and his friendly staff for breast implant removal."

"65 With Great Results - I had breast lift surgery in July of 2017. Dr. Butler was very professional throughout the entire process. He put me completely at ease with the examination process and the surgery and spent all the time I needed to have my questions answered. I never felt rushed. His bedside manner is comforting and relaxed. Two weeks after my breast surgery, my incisions under both breasts broke open and Dr. Butler was there for me through the entire healing process which took eight months. I saw him every two weeks and he assured me if I needed him at any time between office visits, he and his staff was just a phone call away. I am now completely healed and am very pleased with the results of the surgery. His nursing and office staff are efficient, and some of the nicest, caring people around. I am now planning another procedure and of course I will have Dr. Butler do it."

I have been wanting to have a breast augmentation for years and thought I would wait until I was older to do so. Eventually as my College graduation neared and the thought of "who do I want to be in the 'real world'" came into play the more I knew I wanted to do this now. The Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery team was very informative and helpful from booking my consultation to my post opp appointments. They took the time to talk with and get to know me and made sure to offer all and any assistance I needed leading up to and following my surgery. I have been recommending them left and right. They are the best. My mother is even contemplating having hers re done through Dr. Butler because of how amazing his work with me was. 10 out of 10 the best place to go!"
"Breast Augmentation: Age 34, 2 Kids, Completely Flat Chested - Pensacola, FL - I was motivated to have a breast augmentation performed after having my second child. Once done breast feeding, I was left with little to no breast tissue to speak of or fill up a bra!

Dr. Butler guided me in the right direction and I am very happy with my results!"

Because my breast weren't a Full C-cup. So lots of people recommend me to Dr. Peter Butler, I ended up getting 450cc gel silicone, so about a Small D And I must say I couldn't be happier! Dr. Peter Butler did a amazing job! I would definitely come see him again!"
"45 Yr Old Mom with Aging Saline Implants - Pensacola, FL - After 13 yrs I was ready to be rid of my saline implants and have my breasts lifted. I was a 34B prior to implants, a 32DD after implants and am now a 32D. I never had any issues with the implants but grew tired of the extra weight of them as they were bigger than I had requested from my original doctor. I couldn't be happier with the results! I finally feel normal!"
"29, 2 Kids - Pensacola, FL - I went to see Dr Butler to have a breast augmentation after having two kids. Him and his staff were very friendly. He spent alot of time making sure i felt comfortable with the size i chose as i didnt want to go "too big." He answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable. I couldn't be happier with my results. I would recommend anyone to see Dr. Butler."
"31 Year Old, 2 Kids, Wanting More Fullness - Pensacola, FL - I've always been small chested (A cup/small B), but after having children I lost the little volume I had, and after months of research and soul searching I decided I wanted a little more fullness. Once I made the decision to get breast augmentation, the hardest part was figuring out what size to choose. I feared going too big and looking unnatural (I'm 5'6, 113 lbs), or too small and left wondering why I spent the time, money and effort to go through it. Ideally, I wanted full, natural looking breasts that also fit my small frame. It was definitely a mental process for me, as much as it was a physical one. I'm six months post op and I could not be happier. I didn't think the decision to make a change in my breast size could make me feel so good. I felt confident prior to surgery, but now I really feel great! It was a big decision for me, and a very personal one, and I'm so happy I did it!Updated on 10 Jul 2016:More photos of augmentation resultsUpdated on 22 Aug 2017:I've been meaning to post an update because I found them helpful. It'll be 2 years post op this upcoming December and I still couldn't be happier. I wasn't sure if over time the excitement would fade and I would have some regrets but thankfully that hasn't happened and I haven't suffered with any complications. I'm adding a few updated photos. I'm 5'6 110lbs ."
"Dr. Patterson is amazing! He is very caring and listens to what you want as a patient. He and his staff went above and beyond to answer all of my questions and make sure my breast augmentation was a pleasant and comfortable experience. I can't say enough good things about them honestly. I wouldn't go to any other surgeon!"
"37 Years Old and Wanting to Feel "Pretty" in Clothes Again! - Pensacola, FL - I am 37 and happily married for over 12 years. Just realized how much of a boob man my husband is, LOL. After investigating local and distance doctors and personal reviews from clients for a breast augmentation for over a year we decided to go with Dr. Patterson. Best decision EVER! The doctor and all of the staff were out of this world. Everyone made me feel comfortable and explained the entire process with great detail. The only thing I wish was described better was how your breasts feel immediately following. It feels like when you are done breastfeeding and your boobs are so full of milk they will burst. If a patient has had children that description will explain exactly what to expect. Thanks again to Dr. Patterson and his entire staff!!!!"
"44 Yrs Old, I Have Had 2 Breast Implant Surgeries. Pensacola, FL - I am totally satisfied with the outcome of both surgeries. My first surgery was in June 2006 with saline implants... I opted out to change from saline to silicone in 2010. The office staff is GREAT!!! The Dr. is good, she just doesnt have a good bed side manner. But would definitely recommend her work... hands down"
"It has been just over three months since my breast augmentation with Dr. Peter Butler and I could not be more impressed or pleased as a patient. I appreciate the professionalism and attitudes of all the staff members I came into contact with while visiting Dr. Butlers office. Throughout the course of my consultation, and post op appointments, these ladies and gentlemen were extremely attentive, available, and understanding of every inquiry or concern. It is not often a 24 hour phone line is available to a client which truly speaks measures about the caliber of the Dr. you are working with. I cannot truly put into words how appreciative I am of Dr. Butler for his focus and commitment to ensure my comfort level and decision were the best I could make for myself without the influence of others. I greatly appreciate his commitment to never leaving the room until he ensured all my concerns were addressed and answered to the best of his knowledge, the comfort and reassurance the day of surgery, the attention to detail and focus during surgery (none of which I were even coherent for; but my sheer bliss when seeing the results should be validation enough), and post op attention to detail ensuring everything was just how I had hoped and envisioned were unremarkable. Again, thank you to Dr. Peter Butler and his staff for making me feel comfortable, safe, and welcomed at all times, it means more to me than I can truly explain. I highly recommend, without any reservation the services of Dr. Peter Butler and his staff. If it is experience, education, accuracy, precision, and professionalism you are looking for, then look no further, Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery is exactly what you need."
"Limited Adominoplasty, Breast Augmentation (Silicone), Brachioplasty - Pensacola, FL - I'm 47 years old and have been thinking about plastic surgery for sometime. I had Gastric Bypass in 2007. After losing 130 lbs, I have been able to keep my weight off through diet and exercise. I decided (with my wonderful husband's support) to have plastic surgery. I've lived in this area for sometime and have many friends and family who have seen Dr. Butler. I have yet to hear a complaint so I'm taking the plunge. Met with him once already....My husband and I both liked him. Dr. Butler said I don't need MR or a BL. This was a bonus because with my weight loss and four children I was expecting to need both procedures. (woohoo) I'm 5'8 and 137 pounds. My Pre-op appt is scheduled for August 9th.Updated on 12 Aug 2012:Had my pre-op on August 9th. I'm surprised on the size of the implants I chose. (497cc under the muscle- Silicone) My PS knows I want to be a full C -Small D. We did the Vectra Imaging and that's what we came up with. I trust my doctor. I made it abundantly clear that I don't want to look like a stripper. I also found out that since I am not having MR, I no longer have to stay overnight in the hospital. I can decide in the recovery room what I want to do...so we will see. I will try to upload some pics soon."
