I would like to share my experience with Dr. Hammond at partners in plastic surgery Grand Rapids, Michigan. I came to talk to Dr Hammond with severe capsular contraction that I had had for over 30 years.

My breasts were painful and hardest rocks, and disfigured I didn’t think anyone would be able to help me so I waited all that time.. I did my research and even other plastic surgery places as the one in Ann Arbor said the person I want to go to is Dr. Hammond he specializes in breast revision and he’s very very good at it.

They told me not to take anyone else but him. And they were right.!! I only have 3 mm of breast tissue would be easy to tear or feel the implant and he carefully took his time and was able to get out the previous ones so hardened and old and was able to graft fat around the new implant so they felt more natural and not like feeling the implant.

I had such great great care.

I cannot even express it to you. He really cared that I have had to suffered with that for so long because they hurt. They were so severely unnatural, and hard that my grandchildren would instinctively go to hug me and then back away and look at me with a frown and my grown children wouldn’t even give me a hug. Because I would just get a pat on the back because I had these rocks as breasts. I had pretty much lost hope until I came across Dr. Hammond and his experience in breast revision. It is truly amazing how he was able to give me natural soft breasts, which I haven’t had in over 30 years.

I can hug my grandchildren and my family. I can look natural when I wear clothes. The other ones were hard and disfigured and it’s truly changed my life and I am so very very thankful for his expertise his care to help me.. If there’s anyone out there who needs revision or just breast implants, he truly is the best!

I had a breast augmentation with Dr Hammond and from start to finish it’s been a great experience. I am a physician myself and so I really understand and value the importance of discussion of risks of the procedure, realistic surgical expectations, and the doctor’s expertise as well as bedside manner.

Dr Hammond’s bedside manner is wonderful, and he put me at ease. This was especially important to me as I’ve had a prior bad experience with a different plastic surgeon and was scared going into the breast augmentation journey. He made me feel very heard about my fears and what my goals and expectations were, and he delivered! I am so very happy with my results and grateful to Dr Hammond and his wonderful team of sweet nurses.

I would definitely recommend Dr Hammond for breast augmentation for beautiful results that fit your body.

From the moment I walked into Partners in Plastic Surgery of West Michigan, I knew I was in the right place. I had my tummy tuck with Dr. Hammond in November, and there truly are no words that feel big enough to express the gratitude I have for him, my nurse Anna, and every single person on his team.

Throughout this entire journey, I was met with nothing but warmth, patience, and genuine care. Every question I had, big or small was answered thoughtfully, whether it was during an office visit, in the operating room, through a phone call, or by their texting service. I was never left feeling uncertain or alone. Instead, I felt supported in ways I didn’t even realize I needed. At my pre-operative appointment, I told Dr. Hammond that I had consulted elsewhere but kept finding my way back to his office. He asked me what made me choose him. The answer was simple, yet incredibly meaningful to me: kindness.

Every interaction I had with this practice felt sincere and compassionate, and that mattered more to me than anything else. While results are important, feeling safe, heard, and respected mattered just as much. What I came to realize is that this entire team (Dr. Hammond included of course) has a deep love for what they do.

This isn’t just a career to them; it’s a calling. They understand the vulnerability that comes with trusting someone with your body and your confidence, and they treat that responsibility with incredible care. The first day I removed my binder, I cried. Not because I was unhappy, but because I finally saw myself again. My body had done something miraculous by bringing my beautiful children into this world, but in the process, I lost myself. Between motherhood, marriage, working full-time as a hairstylist, and constantly pouring into others, I slowly disappeared. For years, I neglected my own needs. After my pregnancies, I developed diastasis recti, and being asked, “When is your baby due?” or “How far along are you?” cut deeper every single time. Those moments quietly destroyed my confidence. By the time I came into this office, I was at one of the lowest points I had ever been. I was so ashamed of my body that I didn’t even want to remove my robe. I had spent years hiding behind oversized clothing, hoping no one would notice how broken I felt inside. Fast forward to my 8-week post-op appointment—and I walked in standing taller, smiling, and feeling confident for the first time in a very long time. Seeing my before-and-after photos felt surreal. When Dr. Hammond hugged me and said, “Congratulations,” I had to fight back tears. That moment meant more to me than I could ever explain.

This team didn’t just change my body. They changed how I see myself. From the welcoming smiles at the front desk, to the kindness of the OR staff, to the unwavering support from my nurse Anna, to the compassion and talent of Dr. Hammond, each person played a part in helping me heal—inside and out. I cannot recommend Partners in Plastic Surgery of West Michigan enough. If you’re searching for more than beautiful results, if you need compassion, understanding, reassurance, laughter when the tears are close, and a hug you didn’t know you needed, this is the place. I will be forever grateful for the impact they have had on my life. I cannot wait to confidently take my children to the beach this summer, and be more active. You have changed me, and gave me a new perspective on self love. You gave my confidence back.

Dr. Hammond, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I wanted to let any women out there who is struggling with her appearance, whether it be wrinkles or dark spots or sagging skin, etc. That I would highly recommend Partners in Plastic Surgery and ask for Dawn! She has years of experience and very knowledgeable. It takes me an hour to get to the office, but she is well worth the time and the drive. I have gone to local facilities to have fillers or injectables and I’ve had terrible unexcused horrible results. They say these people are certified.They say they’re experienced, but I have found that to be not true.

Dawn, however took the time to explain every procedure to me and all of my options. She also was trying to work with my budget and get the best results that she could. I absolutely love her! She’s experience and how she can tell me what would work best for me if you’re looking for anything like that, Dawn is a valuable experienced member of the team.

She is the one I would recommend!
