Dr. Stern is an amazingly gifted surgeon. I feel so blessed to have been referred to her. I could not possibly be more delighted with the results of my surgery. In addition to being so skilled, Dr. Stern is a warm, kind woman whose manner assures you that she will treat you with the utmost care and compassion.

I cannot say enough about Dr. Stern and her incomparable team—-definitely an assemblage of professional and personable experts. Since this was my first-ever plastic surgery experience , I was quite nervous at the prospect, but everyone involved did everything possible to keep me calm and confident throughout and fielded all of my many questions and concerns with grace and patience. The results exceeded all of my expectations in every way!

Dr. Colette Stern is truly remarkable. She has done two procedures for me over the past year and my results for both are nothing short of miraculous! I am so very pleased with the results. They’re better than anticipated. I have complete faith in her abilities. When she talks with me, she makes me feel like what I have to say is extremely important to her. She answers questions without ever rushing through an appointment. There is no doubt that she is ethical. Her integrity is above reproach. Even though, in the past, I worked with three plastic surgeons I considered the best available, given the choice today which of the four surgeons I personally would want, without a single moment’s hesitation, I would choose Dr. Stern.

If you are considering Dr Stern as your surgeon…please read this! I am here to tell you that she literally has changed my life for the better, and I am forever grateful…. Here I am 6 weeks post op, and even though I’m still healing I am already feeling more physical comfort. What I NEVER expected is that Dr Stern would be able to create breasts that I can see (for the very fist time since 2010) as BEAUTIFUL! They feel natural, are finally the right shape and size for my small frame, feel soft, are symmetrical, and even her incisions/my scars don’t look bad to me. I feel like a woman again and literally cry every time I even think about how much I suffered emotionally over the past 9 years.

My experience with Dr. Stern and her staff was exceptional. The professionalism, skill and patient care throughout the process has been outstanding. Dr. Stern was very patient and answered all of my questions, discussed options and I felt truly cared about my overall health. Her team is very considerate and kind as well as professional. I have met a lot of health care professionals in my life and was completely impressed and grateful for the care and results from Dr. Stern.

Dr Stern~~~~~AMAZING!!! I’ll describe the one event that in my mind tells all you need to know to make your decision to use her for your surgery. As I lay on the operating room table, each nurse and doctor who would be assisting Dr Stern asked me the routine questions, told me what they would be doing during surgery, and making me at ease, Dr Stern was at my right holding my hand and gently stoking my arm as though I were her own Mommy!! That sweet face you see in her profile is who she is inside and out!!!

Highly Recommend Dr. Collete Stern!

I am so thrilled that I chose this particular doctor and her awesome practice! My experience has been incredibly rewarding, and the recovery was very comfortable. The entire staff is kind, considerate, understanding and listened to all my concerns with patience. With the type of procedure I wanted to have done, I felt like I would be most comfortable having a female surgeon. I met her, and I instantly knew, she was the one for me! No regrets, besides not going through with my choice earlier! Dr. Stern, Lucinda, and all staff at this practice made me feel comfortable, welcome and very much at ease. Absolutely recommend seeing Dr. Stern for any advice or treatment you may be interested in pursuing.

I have had 3 shoulder operations because of the weight of my breasts. A number people highly recommended Dr. Stern as the “go-to” doctor for a breast reduction. It was the best thing I have ever done! Dr. Stern was kind and knowledgeable. I felt completely comfortable with her. The staff was terrific. The recovery was pretty quick and easy.

I’ve thought about surgery for many years and after meeting Dr. Stern and her staff, I finally felt that it was time for me to go through with it. My surgery was 3 months ago, and I’m extremely pleased with my results. Dr. Stern is very easy to talk to, understanding, helpful, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend!

Excellent results and excellent care throughout the process. Could not be happier with professionalism, skill, and true patient care of Dr. Stern and her staff.

After a tremendous weight loss and lifestyle change, nothing could help my loose skin, and muscle seperation. I always dreamed of the day to have something done. After a friend of mine had been to Dr. Stern, I decided to go forms consultation. I scheduled my surgery 4 months later. BEST decision. Dr. Stern and her staff are AMAZING…and they changed my life. I could not be happier.

Dr Stern’s team is caring, compassionate, highly skilled, and they all understand how to be supportive in all the ways that matter to me clinically and emotionally. I felt listened to. I know that I am a person and not just another patient in their practice. My outcomes are far greater than I ever could have imagined.

Dr.Stern and her all-female surgical team are fantastic. They’re caring, professional, and give patients their undivided attention. Dr.Stern always went above & beyond to make sure I was comfortable and that all of my questions were answered before my breast reduction/lift. After the surgery, I had an easy recovery and was ecstatic over the results. I felt like my breasts were finally proportional to my body. They were no longer massive or droopy, instead they looked how I had always envisioned.

My procedure was easy. Hardly any pain during recovery. Mostly discomfort and pressure. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Dr stern was amazing and my breasts look just like I wanted. I went with 375 cc with silicone gel. I’m only 2 months post op and my breasts have softened and look natural. Exactly the look I wanted. I highly recommend her and her entire staff. They were all so friendly and nice.

Dr. Stern and her whole staff were wonderful from the second I walked in for my consultation until my final post op appointment. My procedure was quick and nearly painless and has improved my confidence so much!

12 days post surgery and I am overjoyed with my results. The entire staff at Dr. Stern’s facility is amazing and everyone made me feel completely comfortable every step of the way. After years of contemplation and research, I would never have trusted another surgeon. I am overjoyed with seemingly perfect results and I highly recommend.

Dr. Stern was kind. She listened to my story and then examined me. She asked me what I wanted and I once again said SHAPE, not size please. She took the time to explain what reconstructive procedure I would need and explained that depending on the amount of tissue removed in order to have shape I would need another implant. We looked at sizes much better proportioned to my body and she scheduled my surgery for that Friday.

I can not say enough great things about Dr. Stern and her whole staff. I have had two different procedures done in the past year and plan on more in the future. Everyone makes you feel so at ease. Extremely caring, friendly, professional and compassionate. Highly recommend Dr. Stern!

From first contact with Dr. Stern’s office I felt so much care. From the receptionist to the nursing staff to the office manager. Everyone went the extra mile to make sure I was comfortable and that my needs were being met. The day of surgery my family and I were greeted by the sweetest nurse. She went through all my information and made sure all questions were answered and reassured my family they’d take good care of me. From there the process was tactfully coordinated to make sure I was at ease and comfortable.

I was having daily headaches from the weight of the excess flesh on my eyelids. It looked awful as well so I decided something had to be done, even at the age of 77. I am delighted at the outcome – I can see my eyes again, no headaches and I think it looks wonderful! It was definitely worth the money.

Today I went to my post op appointment with Dr. Stern and I cried. This time they were tears of joy, I finally looked the way I thought I should…

Dr. Stern and her staff were amazing. Her assistant Lucinda is amazing, and extremely helpful! I always forgot to ask certain questions and I would email her and have a response in an hour or less. Dr. Stern was amazing! She explained everything, was patient with my questions and was thorough throughout the entire process- pre op, surgery and post op. My results are unbelievable! I could not be happier!

Dr. Stern has a great bedside manner. Her staff are so friendly. I recommend her highly.

Dr. Stern performed a breast implant revision and lift. I had 2 previous breast surgeries before this one. I had to go through 3 plastic surgeons, 3 surgeries, across 2 states, 3 cities, and 23 years to find the doctor who could FINALLY get my breast augmentation right! She listened! This was a major difference between her and the 2 previous doctors. Not only did she listen, but she proved that she is highly skilled which was evident in my easiest recovery ever. I had zero bruising, barely any swelling, and required only 1/2 of one pain pill despite the fact that I am well over 2 decades older since my first procedure! My recovery was nothing short of miraculous. Additionally, she and her staff gave me the best bedside manner I had ever encountered or witnessed. I’m just so grateful to Dr. Stern and her amazing team!

There aren’t enough words to explain how I feel. Dr. Stern was caring, companionate, very professional, sensitive, and gave me what I had been waiting for since I was a teenage girl.

Dr. Stern and her staff are remarkable! I’m very satisfied with my results and so glad I had this surgery done. They were informative, made me feel safe and comfortable, and showed a great regard for my well being. I would highly recommend her and her staff to any one looking for a knowledgeable, skilled, and experienced plastic surgeon!

Dr Stern is an excellent surgeon and I often recommend her to friends and family. She listens intently in order to develop a treatment strategy which takes into account all of your specific concerns and goals. She takes her time explaining and answering all questions. Recommend highly!

Went I went to see Dr. Stern I was interested in a thigh, arm, and tummy lift. I felt that she was very honest about what is best for my at this point in my life. She advised waiting on a tummy tuck until after I have kids. She also advised seeing how much I could tone up my thighs with exercise/weight training. She told me she did not think I would get the results I wanted in my arms from exercise alone, as the skin is now too loose after having weight loss and lipo. Dr. Stern’s nurse, Pam, and secretary, Lucinda, are both very nice and helpful. I felt comfortable going into my appointments. The facility is beautiful, wait time is minimal, and everyone is friendly. I recommend this facility and Dr. Stern.

Kudos to Dr. Stern and her wonderfully amazing staff. Being an old hippie type and not much into traditional meds I never thought about anything but aging gracefully until it made me sad to look in the mirror. Never beautiful I have always been comfortable in my skin but when my looks began affecting my mental well being it was clearly time to see if something could be done about it. Nothing drastic and clearly still me but I have now regained my confidence and am much happier with myself. Thanks so much to this great team … Words just cannot express how grateful I am to all of them… Life is good again !

Dr. Colette Stern is the absolute best!!! Prior to meeting her, I had 2 consultations with other surgeons, both of which left me feeling unsure and frankly objectified. Dr. Stern treated me with the utmost dignity and respect. I felt entirely comfortable and confident in her abilities pre-op, and that feeling was amplified after surgery. Dr. Stern listened to exactly what I wanted and provided the best options based on my preferences. I could not have imagined a better experience, and I recommend her enthusiastically with full stars!

Perfect!! I highly recommend Dr. Stern. She is amazing. I recently had my breast implants removed and received a lift. Dr. Sterns’ team of nurses are caring and compassionate, and very knowledgeable. Dr. Stern answered every single question I had before surgery and was very attentive to my concerns. I am over the moon happy with my results, I can’t say enough about Dr. Stern, her team and overall experience. Simply THE BEST!!
