Dr. Stoker is a phenomenal plastic surgeon. He is a very talented surgeon. He is not aggressive in terms of changing your looks but only refreshing and well rested. Stacy is amazing! Very artistic and has a magic touch (no pain) She will listen to you as to what your goal is for your face and skin then she will provide you her thoughts that are most beneficial to your skin and face. She is very conservative in her approach to treatment. Amazing place to visit! I will give it 11 out of 10! 🤗
Perfect results! I did a mommy makeover with Dr Stoker that included breast reduction with explant, extended tummy tuck, and lipo. I am one year out from surgery and couldn’t be happier! Dr Stoker gave me my dream body! I am going back for a C02 laser treatment and blepharoplasty . I have absolute confidence I’m going to have amazing results with this procedure as well. 10 out 10 recommend!
I interviewed several plastic surgeons before deciding to work with Dr. Stoker and his incredible team. From the moment I stepped into their lovely office space and was so warmly received by Autumn at the reception desk, I could tell Dr. Stoker’s approach was what I wanted. Everyone of his team members were personable, helpful, and caring. The charming Claudia helped me schedule my breast reduction/lift for a year after my initial visit, adding on CO2 Laser treatment for my sun-damaged skin and blepharoplasty surgery. I am now just over two weeks post op, and I couldn’t be happier with the results thus far. My breasts are perfectly shaped and the lift feels amazing! My skin and eyes are still healing, but I’m already impressed with the dramatic improvement to texture of my skin and the brightness of my eyes. Dr. Stoker’s thoughtful, kindhearted, upbeat demeanor is a bonus, but what matters more is his surgical expertise and skill, which he has in spades. He’s at the top of his profession, and I am so grateful to have found him and his talented team of nurses and assistants. Plastic surgery is a huge investment of time, money, and trust. Dr. Stoker has made my investment well worth it.
Whoever you are, stop looking, you found the right Doctor with a great team. I contacted Dr Stoker office for a consultation in February 2024 and I can say that I felt appreciated from the first call until my last visit, like any customer wants to. On my consultation day, I really wanted Dr Stoker to be honest with me and he was. I remember what he told me “We need to work together, I can do what you want, but you need to maintain it” I really appreciate what he said. He pushed me to make healthier decisions, not only to get ready for the procedure but to maintain my health and my amazing results. What I am trying to say is, Thank you Dr Stoker. The office team made it even better by communicating with me for anything I needed, from scheduling visits and answering any questions I had. On the procedure day I was a little bit nervous, but they made it an easier experience from waiting in the lobby until the end of the day. I cannot remember all the lady’s names that helped me on that day, so thank you all.
It was my first time going to see a plastic surgeon, but once I arrived the staff made me feel so comfortable. I went in for a breast augmentation consult. Dr. Stoker and his whole team were absolutely great, and all my questions were answered! I ended booking my surgery for the next month. The day of surgery the staff made me feel very comfortable and calm. The recovery process was easy to follow. I really loved how Dr. Stoker called me hours after surgery to check-in on me to make sure I was good. I would highly recommend Dr. Stoked for all your plastic surgery needs!
3 weeks post-op and I love my results more and more every day! I have no regrets about choosing Dr. Stoker for my breast augmentation and C-section scar revision surgery. He took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve, explained what I could realistically expect, and was very patient with my husband’s concerns and questions. Everyone on his staff made me feel at ease with their knowledge and care. I can say I felt NO PAIN and, so far, my results are exactly what I was hoping for. Dr. Stone, the anesthesiologist, was fantastic. I was nervous about waking up in pain or nauseous and sick. But my fears were unfounded. I don’t remember falling asleep. I woke up feeling great, yes a little groggy and my chest felt heavy, but no pain or sickness. Aubree was my nurse and she continues to be helpful. Everyone on Dr. Stoker’s staff has been pleasant and knowledgeable. You can tell they all love their job, KNOW their job, and truly care.
