Gary A. Tuma, MD, FACS

Dr. Tuma is so extremely skilled at his practice. I was a very difficult case and he did exactly what I wanted. He is patient and takes his time with his patients. His office is so clean, he runs on time, his staff is friendly. I would recommend Dr. Tuma to ANYONE and will only see him going forward for any of my surgical needs.

I am 55 and chose to do both procedures at once- tummy tuck and breast reduction/lift. I am so glad I did both at same time as my recovery was totally manageable thanks in large part to Dr. Tuma's technique and using the latest local anesthetic.
Pros: relatively easy recovery ie very little pain, great results (wish I did it yrs ago!), not much down time (2 wks)
Cons: hated sleeping on back, hated the required restrictive garments (order larger size then they say), my back killed me for about 2 wks from hunching over bec i was nervous about standing straight up

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Tuma and his entire team. They helped me through my breast cancer diagnosis with tremendous care and respect. After meeting with him and seeing his work I knew that my decision to have a double mastectomy was the right one. Throughout the entire process he was incredibly patient and understanding of my concerns. Every time I left his office I felt such relief. He did an amazing job at putting me back together. My reconstruction went smoothly. I feel like a whole person now and honestly, my new, reconstructed breasts look great. Him, and his team are angles. Truthfully, I look forward to my appointments.

As a female child growing up, you look forward to the day you begin to develop into a young woman. My development was not fair as I called it, growing up with noticeable uneven breast was not eye pleasing. My confidence level was at minus zero, I was not happy. But a HUGE thank you to Dr. Gary A. Tuma, M.D., FACS and his WONDERFUL staff, I look and feel AMAZING !!

I had my reduction with Dr. Tuma on 11/30/20. It was deemed medically necessary and funded by insurance. I'm not sure what the actual cost is. My experience was amazing. I had very little pain and he didn't use drains. I went from a 36 F to a 36 large C/ small D. I have nipple sensation in one breast so far but it's only been 3 days...I'll give it time.

I’m so happy with the results! I can wear whatever I want and I’m amazed that I can go bra-less if I want to and they stay perky.

One year after.

Dr. Tuma and his staff go above and beyond to give their patients the best experience possible. Whether it is an injection appointment, pre/post-surgical appointments, or skincare appointments, I have always felt extremely comfortable and well taken care of. The appointments start on time, the staff is extremely professional and courteous, and Dr. Tuma is a phenomenal surgeon. Earlier this year I had a mini tummy tuck and I am beyond thrilled with my results; and they just keep getting better. 

Dr. Tuma did an amazing job and I cannot say enough about Dana. She checked on me every day to see my progress and to make sure that I was okay, offering suggestions for post-op care as time went on.

I was a sales rep in the plastic surgery industry for some years and I saw dozens of local board-certified plastic surgeons perform surgery; I chose Dr. Tuma for my own personal surgery. that speaks volumes.

I am very self conscience about my body and was very nervous going to see Dr. Tuma. Well, when he came in, I felt 100% at ease. He did not make me feel bad about my body, just the opposite. He really cares about his patients. He kept in constant contact with me before my surgery and even more, after my surgery. 

His whole team was fantastic. After my surgery, they came in my room 5 times a day. I have never seen that before. They made sure I was completely comfortable and no in pain. When I came home it was still the same. They called constantly and made sure I had everything I needed to be comfortable at home. It was an amazing experience. Dr. Tuma and his entire staff cares about their patients.

If anyone needs surgery, he is the Dr. to go to. Any issues I had, he would call me ASAP and take care of it. He is just amazing, along with his entire staff, from nurses, to PA assistants to the office staff. They all work well together and truly care about you. Plus the amazing job he did, I was cut hip to hip and he did an amazing job. I thought I would look horrible, the scar is disappearing. He works miracles.

Dr. Tuma is an excellent plastic surgeon. I had a breast reduction with a fantastic result. He will answer any questions you have about your surgery. I didn't have any pain and he didn't use drains. I liked that I was able to shower within 48 hours after surgery. I love how I look and would recommend Dr. Tuma as a plastic surgeon.

Dr. Tuma is an amazing surgeon. From start to finish. Not only did he make me feel extremely comfortable going into the procedure, but he was very hands on and thorough during my recovery. I would highly recommend all family and friends.

Excellent!! Great doctor! With Great bedside manners! He took the fear out of me having surgery(expenders then reconstruction of both breast) and listens to any questions or concerns that may arise! His staff is great too!!
