David E Morales, MD

Dr. Morales is amazing. I was involved in an accident that deeply lacerated my lip and cheek, and I needed the precise care of a plastic surgeon within 12 hours.
Thank God that Baylor ER found Dr. Morales. When I arrived the next morning at his office, he told me it was a fluke he was even on call (this was on a Sunday), but then he took a look at my injury and said he was so glad that he was available. My injury was a bit complicated, and I could have easily gotten terrible scarring from it without the premium care of a very experienced surgeon.
I asked Dr. Morales a thousand questions, because I was so worried that I would never look the same again (my father is a dentist, so my smile is pretty important to me!). He gave me honest expectations and was very patient with all of my concerns. He did a few different layers of stitches, and then I was on my way.
Over the course of the next few weeks, I had random questions about my stitches and I even sent him a couple of pictures one time, and he always answered my emails quickly and compassionately. I could tell he is very invested in the care of his patients from start to finish. Working with his front desk staff was also a breeze each and every time I went in for an appointment.
I’ve dealt with highly-​regarded plastic surgeons before where I’ve left their offices peeved over their lack of concern, but Dr. Morales is (by far) the most compassionate and caring plastic surgeon that I have ever worked with. He’s not boastful, he’s not a «know-​it-​all», and he’s not annoyed with any of your seemingly dumb questions… And that’s saying a LOT considering he graduated from Harvard medical school. If I have the need for anything involving a plastic surgeon in the future, he will be the first person I call. Thank you, Dr. Morales!
