Dr. Macias is AMAZING!! She is so caring and kind. She listens to her patients and seems to really love her job and cares about her patients. I would highly recommend her. Her staff also has been very wonderful and caring all the time!
The medspa staff are always friendly and welcoming. Kellee has the LIGHTEST touch with an injection needle and always does a great job!
I was recently hospitalized last week for a finger infection. I ended up having surgery and Dr. Downs was my doctor. Very good bedside manner and great doctor. He takes his time to explain things to you. I really liked that. And went to his office for my follow up. All the staff were so sweet and professional.
I had a great experience here, the staff are so friendly and make you feel comfortable. Dr. Downs is the best, I will definitely be returning.
Dr. Downs is fantastic. He is very knowledgeable and communicates very effectively. The staff made this experience comfortable for me. I am very happy and pleased with the results.

I was referred to The Centre by the on call hand Doctor that reviewed my ER case after I split my thumb open. From setting up my appointment to being taken care of by the staff, it was a pleasant experience. Each member of the team I met was attentive, very forthright with any information I needed & were an absolute pleasure to be around. Dr. Downs has an amazing staff!
Everyone is so professional, compassionate, and willing to help in anyway.
I would recommend their office to everyone.
I’ve been going to the Spa for a few years now and have always had a positive experience with my services and staff. Everyone is always kind and informative. Ashley Kweder has easily been my favorite cosmetic injector! She has always been able execute everything I wanted, keeping me well informed and being absolutely the sweetest! Highly recommend
I received a rhinoplasty from Dr. Macias and my nose is PERFECT. 😍
I enjoyed my whole experience but here are a few specific highlights that stuck out:
It has been officially 5 week since my tummy tuck and breast lift. After losing 150lbs I knew I needed this done but never thought it would be possible. After meeting with Dr. Downs and his team my dreams started to seem like reality. Five weeks ago we completed 1 of my 2 suggested surgery’s. My recovery so far has been extremely easy with little to no pain. Dr. Downs has been just the best. He took his time and explained every part of my surgery and what I could expect. It was a pleasant surprise to wake up from surgery and find out he didn’t have to make the vertical incision down my stomach due to all the my weight loss, and lose skin. I’m so happy Dr. Downs is who I decided to go to for this surgery. Can’t wait for him to complete my project.
Dr. Macias and her staff helped make this very personal decision easy and comfortable. They took the time to listen and answered all my questions. I was very nervous about having breast surgery but after it was done I was so happy with the results. She truly nailed it. I would highly recommend Dr. Macias to anyone considering any cosmetic surgery.
