Testimonials

Real stories, real results

I traveled from New Hampshire and spent 3 weeks in Florida just to go to Dr. Prendiville. My Dad had gone to him and I was extremely impressed with his work.  I highly recommend Dr. Prendiville and would give him more stars if I could 😀. He’s a doctor you can trust and have 100% confidence in. He is the best!

Doctor Prendeville did some work on my face and just after 3 months the results are unbelievable. I was already very impressed with the office staff they are so professional but must important they are very kind and loving. Believe me I will do it again and again, but only with him trust me you will never regret it.

I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Prendiville in April 2024, and had a wonderful experience. The office staff is warm, and knowledgeable.  Everyone made me feel comfortable, and cared for. I look like a refined version of myself. I’m so happy! If you are on the fence, I would definitely recommend Dr. Prendiville!

Megan

I had the privilege of Dr. Prendiville performing my facelift and eye lift and I am beyond thrilled with his work.  He and his office are extremely professional and caring and I am so happy I chose him.  If you are considering a facelift, you won’t be disappointed.  I look completely natural but probably 20 years younger!  Thank you Dr. Prendiville!

Marie

I had a lower facelift done by Dr. Prendiville, and the results are A-MAZING. Friends and family say I look the same as I did 10-15 years ago. When I look in the mirror, I see myself, not the person with the heavy neck and jowls who refused pictures. I can’t say enough about how pleased I am with the results! Highly recommend.

Rose

My husband had a neck lift by Dr. Prendiville and is very pleased with the results. He looks many years younger than his age. What a huge difference one procedure like that can make! I am an RN and do thorough and detailed research before choosing my medical professionals because I only want the very best, as we all deserve.

Dena

Forever grateful to Dr. Prendiville and his team.  He has his own genius and competency along with every each and everyone you meet in his office!   He is one of the few surgeons who specializes in only the face and neck plastic surgery.  Take it from me, he kept me from being invisible as an older woman, safely.  Experience matters. ✨️
