"Good day I want to share my experience with the surgery I had with Dr. David De Rung. He performed the surgery on November 12, 2025. I looked at other options before choosing him, but I didn't click with the other doctors. When I went to see Dr. De Rung, he immediately gave me the confidence I was looking for, since his specialty is facial surgery and the courses he has taken demonstrate that. That was very important to me. Now, three months later, I feel like a new person. I'm 57 years old, and my friends tell me I look much younger. He didn't just change my face; he changed my self-esteem. I like looking at myself in the mirror now. I know that aging is a normal part of life, but I've always thought that if science has changed so much for our benefit, we should take advantage of it while it's available to us. Dr. De Rung truly makes a difference; he doesn't just change faces, he changes your life. Thank you, Doctor."

"I want to express my deepest gratitude to the doctor for his excellent work and professionalism. From the very first consultation, he made me feel comfortable, answered all my questions, and clearly explained the procedure. The result of my surgery exceeded my expectations; it looks very natural, and I am very happy. Furthermore, the follow-up and care after the operation were impeccable. I wholeheartedly recommend him."

"My experience with Dr. David De Rungs has been simply extraordinary. From the very first consultation, I felt heard, understood, and above all, completely confident. His professionalism, clarity in explaining each stage of the process, and his compassionate approach made the entire journey much more relaxed. The results completely exceeded my expectations: they look natural, harmonious, and delicate—exactly what I was looking for. His experience, technique, and meticulous attention to detail are evident. Furthermore, the post-operative follow-up has been impeccable; he was always attentive, accessible, and genuinely interested in the patient's well-being. Today, I can say that I am very happy and grateful for the results and for all the support I received. Without a doubt, I recommend Dr. David De Rungs to anyone considering a procedure and seeking safety, honesty, and professional excellence. Thank you, Doctor, for your work and for the incredibly positive impact it has had on my life."

"I was hesitant in leaving my review because i had considered still attempting to still contact today the doctor. However, i have decided i would not want to pursue a surgery with a doctor who doesnt value his patients or his patient's time. I waited over 6 months for my virtual consultation with Dr. De Rungs. I was so enthusiastic as he seemed to check all the boxes, I coordinated with family that lives in Mexico City with the anticipation to get surgery and have relatives help. The day of my consultation i received a msg asking if I could do my consultation at 2pm rather than 6pm. Excited, I dropped everything to be available at the new time they proposed, only to never receive a call at 2pm. So I called at 2:10 and they ignored my call and said in a moment they'd call back. At 2:30 i received a msg that he was finishing up as he had an urgent matter. 3:30pm came around and I still hadnt received a call and had a meeting at 4:15pm.so I msgd them to let them know about my meeting. They never responded. So about 15 min before the originally scheduled appointment of 6pm i msgd them to confirm he would still call me at 6pm like our original appointment was scheduled. Almost 10 min after 6pm I received a msg that he had left for an appointment he had and to give them time until he came back. I told them after 7pm I would not longer be available as I already had plans. I asked if the doctor didnt call me before 7pm if he could reschedule asap and they ignored me after that. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. Had me waiting nearly all day for a call only to never call or reschedule. I don't understand how a doctor does not have the ability to reschedule with some one with anticipation if they knew they would not be able to make it to the appointment. What a waste of almost 7 months in waiting."
