"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!!!"
"Dr. Patterson did an implant exchange and breast lift. I am beyond happy with my results. Dr. Patterson took his time in explaining all the options and details of the surgery during my consultation. I left my consultation feeling completely confident in my decision choosing him and in his skills and abilities as a plastic surgeon. The staff is exceptional. From the ladies at the front desk to the nurses assisting Dr. Patterson, everyone was kind, professional and very helpful with any questions I had. I would 100% recommend Dr. Patterson and Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery."
"I am 7 weeks post op from an abdominoplasty and mastopexy performed by Dr. Patterson and his great surgical team. I cant say enough positive things from my initial consult to the post op care received weeks after the surgery. One important thing that Dr. Patterson shared with me in my consultation was the importance of allowing myself to heal. I knew this would be the most difficult part, but i listened to his advice and i am pleased with how my body has healed. I knew going in to the surgery that i would miss a lot of fun summer gatherings ( including pool parties and beach events) but i know i would not be experiencing the excellent results if i didnt listen to his advice. A great surgeon not only does beautiful work but also sets clear expectations for your recovery period. Thank you to Dr. Patterson and his compassionate team."
"Such a wonderful experience! Dr.Leveque is truly an artist. She removed the implants I’d hated and gave me a breast lift. I’m back to normal and feel like myself again. I’m back to my favorite clothes I’d almost given up on! She listened to my thoughts and questions and reassured me with answers to everything. I have no doubt that there are others that are cheaper but when it comes to my body there is only one choice and that is Dr. Leveque. You get what you pay for and I got the best! Don’t ever settle for less than that with your body. I NEVER WORRIED about her doing the surgery because of her years of experience and skills/training. Her staff is amazing with a shout out to Amanda. She is kind and funny and made me feel I was beautiful again! You’re the best! I highly recommend this team for your breast health and appearance transformations. Perfect! Thank you so much for the return of my self confidence!❤️❤️❤️"
"Breast lift and 390cc implants - gave me the size and shape I wanted - I am a 61 yr old woman who lost 50 pounds over a year. Had a breast lift and 390cc implants on 8/31/2022 with Dr Butler. His staff and office could not have made me any more comfortable at all times. Check in and out and questions were answered professionally and quickly. I can not say enough great things about Dr Butler. This was a procedure I did not go into without a ton of questions and concerns due to my age. He took his time and always answered all my questions. His time spent with me at each appointment was professional and not rushed. When he came in to speak to me before surgery he quickly made all my pre surgery anxiety go away. After my surgery he spoke with my husband and explained how everything went. I’m so happy with my breasts. He gave me the size and shape I wanted . I strongly recommend Dr Butler and Gulf Coast Plastics.As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway"
"My breasts look amazing and I’m only 5 weeks post op - I am very pleased with my experience with Dr. Leveque and her staff! Amanda, one of her nurses is fantastic! Dr. Leveque, made me feel very confident she could provide what I wanted for my mastopexy without implants. My breasts look amazing and I’m only 5 weeks post op. Something to remember though is that there is no exact perfect, and that realistic expectations are needed with cosmetic surgery. All that to again say, I am very happy with my results and would certainly recommend Dr. Leveque and Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery in Pensacola."
"Currently 3 days post-op from a full bilateral mastopexy by Dr.Patterson and his team, and I am beyond happy with the results! The whole team at GCPS made the entire experience so smooth and easy. I will always recommend Dr.Patterson to any friend looking for a great Plastic Surgeon."
"Needed a breast lift and augmentation to achieve my desired result - Many years after breastfeeding and losing some extra pounds, I decided I was ready to seek help for my sagging breasts, and I'm glad I did. I highly recommend Dr. Jocelyn Leveque! She really listened to my desire to find just the right size for me, and welcomed my bringing in my wish pic on the day of surgery so she could see the natural contours that I loved but wanted scaled down to suit my small frame. She recommended silicone under the muscle, and was prepared with anywhere from 295-385 cc implants to provide me with just the right size to correct asymmetry and provide fullness.Updated on 5 Jul 2020:I am feeling so good today. It’s like the after-surgery funk has lifted and I finally have the energy to share my journey with others. So here goes...Once I made the choice to do this, the next hardest part was determining how big to go. I really had no desire for people at work to think, “OMG, she definitely got new boobs!” Yet I did not want that to stop me from getting what I really wanted. In the end, I took a set of wish pics in to Dr. Leveque (from one of her own clients) with the caveat that while I liked the natural curves in the pictures, I wanted the size scaled down to match my 5-foot-tall frame. She measured me again and suggested I try out the 385 cc size to see how I felt with that as the largest option. So we agreed that she would use her own judgment during surgery to use anywhere from 295-385 cc’s silicone implants under the muscle. I could not be happier with her choice! "
"Breast Implants - From consultation, Dr. Leveque & her staff were professional & kind. I was concerned i would need a breast lift along with implants but Dr. Leveque discussed a dual plane technique with silicone implants. It did create a lift for me with out having to spend the money for one. It was 100 percent what I needed & I could not be more pleased with my new breast. Everything went smoothly. I have already recommended her to friends, and I will continue to use her in the future."
"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."
"Amazing experience - don't go anywhere else - I had a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast lift and augmentation with Dr. Butler in November 2017. I had heard good things about him from friends getting reconstruction after breast cancer, and decided to interview him. I had interviewed two other plastic surgeons in my area before him, and done extensive research, so I walked in with an hour's long list of questions. He took the time to answer each and every one. Further, he addressed my concerns before I even brought them to his attention. Once surgery day came, and in those days following, I can't say enough great things about him and his staff. They made my experience as comfortable as possible, and were incredibly safe in their practices. I would not hesitate to refer friends and family to him. I traveled out of my home area an hour and a half each way to have surgery with Dr. Butler and would do it again. Dr. Butler was happy to answer my questions any time as well, I even called him on a weekend after a holiday, and he was just as cheerful and upbeat as he is every time you see him in the office. I feel completely comfortable with the staff. If I could give them 100 stars I would. Dr. Butler is very experienced and knowledgeable. Don't trust your safety to anyone else!"
"46 Y/o Tummy Tuck W/muscle Repair, Breast Lift with Implants. - Childbirth and fluctuating weight over the years have taken a toll. I could never get rid of the apron/overhang that I've had since I I had my son. No amount if exercise would eliminate the overhang. I am not at my ideal weight but I'm seeing more and more plus size women having these procedures (with great results) so I decided not to wait. I am 5"5 and weighed 203 on the morning of surgery. Ideally (for me) I'll get down to 175-180 which is a 10/11 for me. I was initially going to get just a TT but decided to go for it and do the full Mommy Makeover. My PS (Dr. Jocelyn Leveque) wasn't sure whether she would do Lipo or not and that was left open as an option. She told me that she felt I could and would get a great result. I had 2 consultations and a preop appointment. Dr Leveque and her staff are great. She does her surgeries at Gulf Breeze hospital. My surgery went well and my recovery started well. I prepared by getting any and everything I felt would help make me more comfortable during my recovery. My surgery was on a Thursday and I went in at 6am and had surgery from 7:30 to 12noon and then to recovery and discharged by 2pm. I spoke with a nurse the day of my F/u appointment, Tuesday , 2/14, and asked if I could take off my compression hose. She said yes and I did. My appointment went fine -- I got to change binders and that felt great. As the week progressed one of my thighs started feeling weird (sore, weak , tender, warm). It didn't HURT but just felt weird. After noticing this a couple of days I mentioned it to my mom on Friday 2/17 and she asked me to call my PS about it. I did and one of the nurses scheduled me for an ultrasound where they determined I have DVTs (blood clots) in my left thigh. I spent the night in the hospital (got lovenox injections and left the next day with a prescription for Xoralto). I followed up with my primary care doctor and will be on Xoralto for six months. I'm currently 16 days post opp and things are going well with my recovery aside from the DVT setback.Updated on 26 Feb 2017:"
"Brand New Boobs! - Pensacola, FL - I received a breast lift with no implant and was able to keep the same fullness I had before. Dr butler was very personable and down to earth, I felt very comfortable. He listened and explained I wouldn't require and implant and gave me the breast I wanted. I'm very please with my results and now at age 39 I have perkiness I never had before and I can finally wear clothes I've always wanted. Happy customer!"
