I was very pleased with the first contact via phone. Upon our arrival, we were treated very kindly and professionally. Everyone we came in contact with was very pleasant and caring. Dr. Christopher Bates was a pleasure from the start. We really enjoyed his kind and caring personality along with his extensive knowledge. My son who is sixteen is very quiet and he made a comment to me he liked Dr. Bates. That says a lot! We appreciate Dr. Bates making us feel at home from the start. Thank you & Happy New Year! More
I just wanted to give Dr. Bates an excellent review here since I know he is newer to this location and being a business owner that relies on reviews and social media, I know it matters. His bedside manner could not be any more professional yet he still makes you feel comfortable and at ease. He is an amazing surgeon and his nurse Rosa is amazing as well. She promptly replies to any questions I have and they have been there every step of the way before, during and after surgery. I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Bates and his team. I am so happy with my decision to go with him as my Dr. He is an excellent addition to the team here and I am so thankful their hard work and dedication. More
Being new to Ponte Vedra, I was so happy to have Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery recommended to me. As a new patient to plastic surgery, I was so lucky to meet Dr. Bates and his team at PVPS. Everyone was so fantastic and they made me feel comfortable and supported from the minute I walked in for my first appointment. Having completed my surgery with Dr. Bates, I could not have asked for a better surgeon or nicer person. He took his time to carefully explain everything to me from what to expect to the careful post surgery details. He has such a nice way about him and made me feel like I was his most important patient. And as for the surgery results, they are amazing. Dr. Bates is a meticulous artist and surgeon who gave me the exact results I was looking for. What a fantastic addition to the team of great doctors at PVPS. More

I am writing to give a huge thank you to Dr. Bates. First off, this was my first surgery of any kind and he was there to answer any questions that I had along the way. Dr. Bates is very knowledgeable about his craft and you can tell from the first interaction with him that he wants the best outcome possible for each and every patient. Dr. Bates had an outstanding bedside manner, which I am thankful for since as stated prior this was my first procedure of any kind. Dr. Bates is not only a wonderful surgeon but overall a caring physician who looks out for the needs of each person he comes in contact with. Dr. Bates also has a fantastic nurse named Rosie and they will be making many people happy for years to come. More
