"Dr. Ralston is superb! He has an extensive medical background and is the Chief of Plastic Surgery for the Ogden area.
He answered all of my questions, spent well over an hour with me answering everything. He also dealt with the rumors I had heard about breast implants, like that they have to be replaced every 10 years, (that is not true by the way). He also let me know the actual risk of rupture on silicone implants, which is basically nil. I thought I knew a lot about breast augmentation before the consultation, Dr. Ralston made sure I knew everything I was getting into before I left his office.
At my consultation I wanted to show him pictures of the look I was trying to achieve. He didn't look at any of them. His theory is this "you may show me pictures of beautiful breasts on girls with a similar body structure, that doesn't mean you will achieve the same look." He let me know that my breast will still look like my breasts, just bigger. He wanted to tell me what he could do for me.
Dr. Ralston has only shown a few of his results on the internet and he wouldn't show me any of them when I asked. He told me the reason was because all of the result pictures I have seen are of the surgeon's best work, bad pictures are not shown. Dr. Ralston told me that the only pictures he has ever shown on a website are because he had to post them. This made sense to me. I have seen some bad breast augmentation pictures on websites and now I think "wow, if that is their best, then what is their worst?!"
His staff are very friendly, his nurse has been with him well over 20 years. Everyone is very open and make sure that you have all your questions answered. I consulted with many, many surgeons prior to choosing Dr. Ralston. He is the best!
He is always available by phone and his staff respond very quickly to emails. On the day of my surgery everyone was very helpful in making me feel very welcome and safe. I feel like I was taken care of even after the surgery when I was at home recovering. They let me know that they were only a phone call away.
At my 2nd follow up visit I was given a coupon for free bra and panty set from La Mystere, bras that are designed for women with augmented breasts. If I ever need any other procedures done I will definately go to Dr. Ralston.
The only thing I regret is that he does not aggressively advertise his business or his skills, so I feel that I just (luckily) stumbled across him. In spite of that he has a very busy practice, so I guess he really doesn't need to advertise more." ~Misty (Plastic Surgery Patient from Ogden, UT)

When you are choosing a plastic surgeon, you are looking for a highly qualified one like Dr. Ralston who has certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. In order to be board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, one must graduate from an accredited medical school, do internship and residency training in either general surgery or otolaryngology, complete an approved residency in plastic and reconstructive surgery, practice a minimum of two years after graduation, and pass extensive written and oral exams which include a review of all cases done by that surgeon in the past year. This is an incredibly long and tedious process taking a minimum of 7 1/2 years after graduation from medical school.
