Trusted, Proven

Dr. Mark Stalder is an exceptional plastic surgeon, and my experience with his office came during a particularly challenging time in my life. With a strong family history of breast cancer on my maternal side, I made the decision to undergo a prophylactic double mastectomy with immediate DIEP reconstruction in an effort to prevent cancer. It was a difficult decision, but one that I did not take lightly. I chose to work with Stalder Plastic Surgery, and I am incredibly grateful for that choice. Throughout the process, every question I had was answered, and every concern I faced was addressed with professionalism and compassion. The entire team at Stalder Plastic Surgery supported me every step of the way, offering unmatched care and dedication. Having lost my mother to breast cancer, I am hopeful that I will never have to hear those dreaded words, “you have breast cancer,” in my lifetime. I highly recommend Dr. Mark Stalder to anyone considering breast reconstruction. He listens attentively, provides compassionate care, and is dedicated to his patients. His team worked diligently to ensure I was fully informed and confident in my decisions regarding the surgery, making me feel valued and well-cared-for throughout the process. Now, over a year later, I can confidently say that choosing both Dr. Stalder and this surgery was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Dr. Stalder and his team are truly the best in their field.

I can’t give enough thanks to Dr Stalder and his PA Megan. After a DMX to implant and a year of complications, they immediately developed a plan and I underwent a SHAEP FLAP procedure. The recovery from this surgery compared to the implants from another plastic surgeon was night and day. I knew right then I had chosen the right team this time. Megan is readily available by text for any questions or advice. I cannot say how grateful I am to this amazing team of medical professionals and a simple thank you is not enough. They gave me a quality of life back and I feel I am finally on a forward path. I highly recommend Stalder Plastics to anyone who unfortunately needs their services.

I had a great experience with Dr. Stalder and his team. He was very kind, informative, and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. The staff (Jess) is friendly and welcoming, and Abby, the PA, was excellent as well. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When I decided to treat myself to a mastopexy for my 50th birthday, I asked some nurse friends who they recommended for a plastic surgeon. They both said they love and trust Dr Stalder and his team. His patients recover well, love their results, and have so much gratitude for Dr Stalder and his team. I am now among them!Without any pressure, Dr Stalder educated me about fat grafting to also add volume. I chose that option instead of mastopexy alone. I knew I’d love my results, but I didn’t fully appreciate how much of a perfectionist Dr Stalder is. He exceeded my expectations!Recovery was easy, results are beautiful, and I take every opportunity to refer people to Dr Stalder, so they can also have the best possible experience.
