#1 - The journey from my first consultation to where I am today has been filled with adventure,

The journey from my first consultation to where I am today has been filled with adventure, excitement and admittedly, some fear. While I nurtured a life-long annoyance with certain facial features, I had also grown attached to them and changing my physical appearance, even slightly, provoked a few deep, unexpected thoughts about identiy. However, through it all, I felt sure of Dr. Harris' vision, technical skills, and commitment to my care as a patient. I am in awe, frankly, of his attention to subtility and detail.

He demonstrates how less can be truly more as his objective is to make you look like a better version of yourself, not like someone else.

At once a surgeon, and an intuitive visionary in his field, Dr. Harris is much more than a plastic surgeon.

He is an artist.

#2 - Dear Dr. Harris,

Sometimes God answers our prayers through special people like you.God has blessed you with a special gift, and you chose to share it with me. I can never thank you enough for the kindness and concern you have shown me. Thank you so much for starting me on a new journey in my life.

May God continue to bless you, your family, and staff.

#3 - This is just a very small token of my appreciation.

Monte,

While what you do is very amazing and deserving of merit & praise, how you do it is what sets you above the rest and makes you great. You bring nobility to any profession. Thank you very much.

#4 - Dear Dr. Harris,

I know that it has been quite some time since you performed my mole removal, however, I must say that I was truly impressed by your professionalism, skill and general positive demeanor. I thought that I should still send you this note because it’s better late than never. As a young black woman who was faced with the possibility of melanoma, I must admit that it was a very difficult period for me. However, your demeanor, advice and competence all made the process much easier to handle. Thank you for being such an excellent doctor and taking the time to care and help members of this community. You truly are making a significant difference in our lives, even if we don’t say it often. Wishing you all the best in your practice and also for the holiday season.

#7 - Dr. Harris was an outstanding surgeon.

He listened carefully to all my concerns and wishes, and made me comfortable through the process. The results were exactly what I wanted. I couldn't be happier with the successful outcome and my choice of doctor.

I highly recommend Dr. Harris and the entire staff. They are professional, engaging and courteous. Each of my visits was such a pleasurable experience.

#9 - Dr. Harris, Monica and Staff,

I could not leave Chevy Chase without saying thank you once again. Traveling from Denver to experience a life changing venture, was well worth the effort, and you made it all possible. Many blessings on your team as you forge new opportunities and impact people’s lives.

If you ever want to ski in Denver my doors are always open…

#10 - Dear Dr. harris,

I wanted to drop you a note to say how much I have been blessed by you and your practice. Not only are you a phenomenal doctor, but you have such wonderful demeanor! You have regenerated hope for me. I thought my hair would never grow back, but it is growing back!! Thank you for caring enough to help me. You are the best!!!

#11 - Dr. Harris,

I had always been self-conscious about my lips. I always felt that my bottom lip was excessively bigger than the top and clearly disproportioned. For thirty years, I struggled with my appearance and the comments of people who laughed at my “juicy lip”. When I developed a huge, purple cyst from an accident, the humiliation was more than I could bear. I knew I had to have it removed. My self-esteem had hit an all-time low. As a law enforcement professional, I did not feel comfortable going to work or talking to people at all. By the time I found you, I had already been to two doctors who told me that I’d have a huge scar on my lip that could not be avoided. When I came to you for consultation, I immediately knew I was in the right hands. You took such a personal concern for my problem, and with patience, you developed a master plan. Not only did you remove the cyst without scarring, you gave me the lip reduction I have wanted all my life. The surgery was the best thing I have ever done! I am so happy with the results. People don’t notice what I’ve had done, but they always tell me how much better I look! I am so confident in my appearance now. You are a man who is walking in your divine calling. You are doing more than surgeries. You are changing lives. Your kindness is infectious. I have left your office every visit wanting to be a better person. Thank you for changing my life in such an amazing way! I will always be grateful!

Thanks to you,
I “look good, feel good, and am DOING good!”

#12 - Dear Dr. Harris and Pamela,

Even as a writer, I sometimes find it hard to find the right words. So I will just say THANK YOU! For spending so much time with me, for really listening to me, for your compassion, your generosity, and most of all, for giving me, at long last, hope. It means so much.
