Dr. Gavin Dry Patient Reviews

I came to Athenix years ago for some improvements to my body after having my 2 beautiful kids. This is a hard choice to make when you’re a Mom! Athenix made it an easy choice. From my first visit the front desk and my consultant made me feel like family. I had surgery with Dr Dry who’s bedside manner is excellent and even better my results are everything I hoped they’d be. He is absolut...

Athēnix Patient, Google Mommy Makeover, Dr. Dry

I told myself I would give my body a year before I wrote a review and here are my thoughts. I LOVE my results just as much now as I did then. I had a crazy quick recovery but I’m grateful for that since my son wanted to be more attached to me after my surgery. I was seen by Dr Dry and the man can work magic. I was nervous at first but after my first visit with him he said “oh you will be an e...

Stephanie B., Google Mommy Makeover, Dr. Dry

I have received a few different procedures here. All of the staff from the front desk to the surgery staff are amazing. Jessica does an amazing facial and is so fun and personable. Dr. Dry performed my surgery and put my mind completely at ease, and was honest and realistic. The OR staff were also fantastic. Julius held my hand, and talked to me calming my nerves as I was getting anesthesia. Megan and Li...

Marie W., Google Plastic Surgery Patient, Dr. Dry

The whole team at Athenix is amazing! I first consulted with Elle back in September and immediately knew I wanted to book with them! I just had my belt lipectomy with Dr. Dry and absolutely love my results and I’m only 15DPO!! You can tell Dr. Dry takes pride in his work and is a perfectionist. My incision is so clean and healing nicely. I also am having a second surgery with him in April. Every st...

Leslie M., Google Belt Lipectomy, Dr. Dry

Love love love everything about this office and it’s staff! Dr. Dry did AMAZING work, and everyone was so kind and helpful. They make sure you feel all the way comfortable and that all of your questions are answered. They have always taken the time to see me if I feel unsure about my healing progress and I trust their knowledge. I would never go anywhere else for work!

Sierra R., Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Dry

The absolute BEST EXPERIENCE! I had an Extended Tummy Tuck, Liposuction of the flanks,  and a Breast Lift at Athenix Body Sculpting Institute in Bellevue, WA, 30 days ago. I cannot say enough about the experience from start to finish. From my 1st consult with Elle, to our many many emails, to the pre-op and post op.. everything was amazing. The patient consultants really care about you and the Nurse...

Cindy W., Google Mommy Makeover, Dr. Dry

I had my implants removed back in May by Dr Dry and I couldn’t be more happy with the before, during and after care and the outcome! The nurses and the staff were phenomenal! I didn’t realize how invasive of a surgery it was to have implants removed in comparison to place them and Dr. Dry took the time to thoroughly  explain what all I can expect from the surgery! He’s a very carin...

Tonia S., Google Breast Explant, Dr. Dry

I am a little over 3 months post op and LOVE my results! Dr dry and all of the staff were so welcoming, knowledgable and accommodating through the entire process! Not to mention Dr Dry delivered in every way with what I was hoping to achieve. Everything from the entire process down to the procedure was so easy and comfortable I’d do it 100x over! So so happy!!
