The Best Possible
Experience
O’Neill Plastic Surgery
According to dr. Patrick
O’Neill, the opportunity to use an
artistic touch is one of the greatest
things about his profession as one of
East Cooper’s best plastic surgeons.
“I love the artistic challenges
that come with being a plastic and
reconstructive surgeon,” he acknowledged. “Whether we
have a cosmetic or reconstructive
procedure, the most gratifying part
of my work is making patients feel
better about themselves.”
He doesn’t do it alone – Dr.
O’Neill described his office staff
as being trained, dedicated and
hardworking employees who do an
incredible job.
“We all work together to create
the best possible experience,” he
mused. “I would not be successful
without them.”
A proponent of patient education,
Dr. O’Neill emphasized the
importance of potential patients
learning more about plastic surgery
before experiencing any procedure.
“Not knowing the facts can hurt
not just your appearance but your
health and budget,” he commented. “It’s important to ask
a lot of questions, stay well-informed and make sure the
physician you select is board-certified.”
After earning his degree at the Medical University of
South Carolina in Charleston, Dr. O’Neill enhanced his
education and experience with nine years of additional
training. He completed a full general surgery and a plastic
surgery residency, both at the Medical University of South
Carolina, and a hand and microsurgery fellowship at the
Christine M. Kleinert Institute for Hand and Microsurgery
in Louisville, Kentucky.
Dr. O’Neill was an attending surgeon at the Medical
University of South Carolina, starting in 2000, and
he continues to work and teach at MUSC as a clinical
associate professor of surgery, helping future plastic
surgeons refine their skills. He opened his own practice,
O’Neill Plastic Surgery, to meet the unique cosmetic needs
of Lowcountry residents.
Now conveniently located on Daniel Island and
serving residents of Mount Pleasant and the surrounding
areas, O’Neill Plastic Surgery offers a number of surgical
techniques, including cosmetic procedures such as
liposuction, tummy tucks and
breast enhancement plus cosmetic
procedures such as face, brow and
neck lifts. Nonsurgical procedures
– laser resurfacing, Botox and fillers
– are also available.
And how did Dr. O’Neill feel
about the news that the readers of
Mount Pleasant Magazine cited him
as one of East Cooper’s best plastic
surgeons for 2016?
“I am humbled and honored to
be voted as one of the best,” he said.
“It is even more rewarding since
the voters are my patients, family,
friends and the community. I hope
it is a reflection of how dedicated my
office staff and I are to patient care.”
Meanwhile, Dr. O’Neill’s patients
explain best why Mount Pleasant
Magazine readers rated him among the best:
“I wanted to express my gratitude and thank you for
taking such good care of me during the process, as well as
after the procedure. I truly appreciate it.”
“I have had such a wonderful experience with Dr.
O’Neill and his amazing staff. Everyone is so friendly and
makes you feel so comfortable and confident with the
decision you make.”
“Thank you all for everything. You didn’t treat me like
a patient; you treated me like family. You made me feel
pretty!”
