Dr. David Stoker is the best Plastic surgeon on the planet. I lost over 120 lbs through diet and exercise.. unfortunately I was left with a bit of loose skin, around my body. I was doing my research for surgeons who do tummy tucks and I remember seeing Dr. Stoker on a TV show ABC's extreme weight loss, where he is the selected doctor to do the procedure because he's the best at what he does. I looked him up on the Internet and all I saw was positive reviews from thousands of patients.. I had to come and see him. I booked my consultation, first thing I saw when I came into his office were the smiling faces of his employees, from the front desk to the nurses, Heather, Sarah, Loraina, Pam to name a few of them. I then saw an incredible view of the Marina, the office he has is completely state of the art. Dr. Stoker sat with my mother and I for literally over an hour talking to us, he's a very down to earth guy. He told me the chair i was sitting on was over 15k$ and he wasn't joking. His credentials in plastic surgery exceeded my expectations, his before and after work in the pictures he showed me were amazing, he even teaches surgeons on how to do the procedure properly. I came in with the intention of getting a tummy tuck but Dr. Stoker said a circumferential tummy tuck would benefit me the most, because of the loose skin on my lower back. I went ahead and got my quote for the procedure, it was well worth it. To have the best plastic surgeon operate on you won't be cheap, but it's your body and trust me it's well worth it. I didnt have any consultations with any other surgeons because i knew i was going with the best. The day of the surgery I was put to sleep and after 5 hours I woke up, no pain at all. I could walk just a few hours after surgery no problem.. that's the work of Dr. Stoker.. I was literally opened up all around then stiched up and I was walking within a few hours it was amazing. I stayed at an aftercare facility for one night, Dr. Stoker personally came to see me early in the morning at 5 AM... what type of Dr. would do that for his patients. He said everything looked good and showed me my body. I now have 6 pack abs and a beach body. My parents saw my body and were amazed at how good it looked. All thanks to Dr. Stoker, I literally had no pain at all and now I'm 11 days after my operation typing this. Thank you Dr. Stoker and staff, you all make an incredible team. If anyone is considering a surgeon go to Dr. Stoker.. he will exceed your expectations.

Hello, I am a 53 year women fully in Menopause. I have been gaining weight at an alarming rate since menopause and my boobs are too big! I got implants in 1998. Taking me from a 36B to 36D. Since then they have grown (breastfed one baby) and are now at least a 42 DD! The implants are Mentor Textured Round Saline above the muscle. I hate the way they look. All I see are boobs when I have a photo taken. I decided to have them redone and lifted. Went to see Dr. Hughes (Los Angeles) yesterday and talked about options. We also talked about pretty extensive liposuction...stomach, flanks, back, bra roll, inner and outer thighs. I think I am going to go ahead with all the surgeries. Prices have really increased since 1998! The lipo will be $11,000. Dr. Hughes says he will take old implants out, then weigh them and put in new implants that are 100 cc's less. Also a lift. I know that the current implants are 385 and 425. I really want to be a C cup. Funny how what you want when you are 38 is NOT how you want to spend your 50's especially with menopause weight gain. Also I wonder how any of you dealt with hot flashes while in compression garments. I already sleep with two fans on me! Ha! Photos coming soon.... Updated on 19 Aug 2015: Updated on 19 Aug 2015: Went from 34B to 34 full D. This was 1998. Mentor textured over the muscle round implants. Loved them. Then had baby at 40 and menopause and I HATE them now. Updated on 29 Aug 2015: I have decided to have Dr. Stocker perform my procedures. He believes very strongly that I have plenty of breast tissue and can remove my implants! That is music to my ears. So I will have an explant, removal of the capsules and a laser bra lift. I hope to come out at a full C cup. I feel confident in his abilities and am excited. I will also have liposuction on tummy, outer and inner thighs, flanks, and bra roll. He states that iI should lose 10 to 15 pounds post surgery and I will look great. We are going to Hawaii for Christmas and my surgery is scheduled for October 1. I should be good to go! No more baggy clothes for me. Updated on 1 Oct 2015: I had my surgery yesterday with Dr. Stoker. Can I just say what a great man. Skilled, compassionate and funny. We did an explant and then a lift. I can tell already that my breasts are going to be terrific. I am so happy to be rid of the implants. He was very skilled in creating an upper pole fullness with breast tissue from the sides of my breasts. My husband actually thought I had smaller implants in place. We all did pretty extensive lipo on flanks, tummy, outer hips, inner tips. Looks like I've lost 20 lbs already.. Pain manageable but would love to sleep. Haven't gotten more than 2 hours since surgery yesterday. Here is a first photo's post op of breasts....

Dr. Stoker is one of a kind!!!!! I am a 42 year old woman who has thought about this procedure for several years after being dissatisfied with my first breast lift and augmentation. I am 120 lbs and very active. I had larger breasts as a young girl, full c to small d. After being active and dancing my whole life my breast size did not seem to be proportionate to the rest of my body. I like a very European look which is natural but still very feminine and sexy. After having my first breast lift and augmentation by one of the highest regarded plastic surgeons in Colorado and California I was not satisfied with the result. I went back several times to discuss why I still felt "too big" and was never met with understanding or solutions. I was very frustrated and did not feel comfortable in my own skin with my breast size. After interviewing 5 different plastic surgeons who specialized in "difficult breast revision procedures" I thought my goal was unachievable. I am so elated to say IT'S NOT, I found the most amazing surgeon on the planet!!! For those of us who have extremely high standards for ourselves, the only Doctor to see worldwide is Dr. Stoker in Marina Del Ray, Ca. From the moment I had my consultation to the pictures of his results, to the office staff and surgery center... This is the only place you should ever consider having an aesthetic procedure performed. Dr. Stoker's calm demeanor and assuring sense of confidence in performing extremely difficult procedures is unsurpassed. I have met with several prominent plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills and Southern California, Dr. Stoker is absolutely one of a kind. Precise eye for perfection, kind and gentle environment, caring and professional staff make this experience priceless. I know that I was a very difficult case to achieve this high level of result with and I was realistic with that going into the procedure. Dr. Stoker and his staff performed at a 12 on a 1-10 scale. I am 2 cup sizes smaller with a full B and I feel fantastic 12 days out of surgery. Dr. Stoker is the only name in exquisite plastic surgery. Heather, Dr. Stoker's patient coordinator makes the entire experience life changing. This facility has it right!

One of the best decisions I've ever made. I workout 4-5 days per week, eat mostly healthy and love fashion. After 7 years of working out and making lots of good health decisions, I realized my boobs were the one thing about my body that would never look better. I'm so grateful for my breast. They feed 2 healthy children. Updated on 21 Jul 2015: 10 weeks post op. Overall swelling is minimal. Left breast is always a little more swollen. Sleeping is still the biggest challenge. It's hard to get comfy in bed. Laying on the scars hurts for sure. The breast look perfect when I have on clothes. Been using scar supervision silicone. The jury in still out on if it is helping the scars. I'm always on the hunt for comfy bras. Underwire bras are a major no no. Overall, super pleased with the results

I was in a bad kayaking accident when I was a teenage and needed rhinoplasty. I had it done by what was supposed to be a world class surgeon in NYC. He made my nose look slightly better and made it slightly easier to breath. I went to Dr. Stoker to fix the damage from the accident and the 1st surgery. He did an amazing job. My nose doesn’t look “done”, it fits my face and looks significantly more attractive. I actually gave him a list of exactly what I wanted done and he did it. I can also breathe a lot easier especially when I go running. His staff was great too.

I would like to thank Dr Stoker and all his team for beeing such a professional clinic. Its been 24hours since my lipo and I can already see the results. I had my inner and outer thighs, hips and flanks done and I couldnt be happier. I choose by far THE BEST Dr I could ever had. Thanks to Heather and Monica for beeing so nice and kind to me, for giving me all the information over and over. You have changed my life. I TOTALLY RECOMMEND DR STOKER!!! They are just AWSOME!

Dr. Stoker is an amazing surgeon who does not disappoint. He corrected my sons' noses about 10 years ago (they look so natural, no one knows!!), and when I was ready for a breast reduction and tummy tuck (at 60), it was clear that he was the most gifted and skillful surgeon I could find. His office staff are compassionate and professional, his operating room is on site and state-of-the-art, and I feel so blessed to have the fantastic results I have after only a few months. Dr. Stoker is caring and responsive and you couldn't ask for a better doctor. If you look at his work on his website you get a realistic idea of what to expect. I am incredibly blessed to have found Dr. Stoker and I enjoy the results of his artistry every single day!!
