Dr. Shaw and all of his staff, are amazing! They have explained everything to me, and held my hand the entire journey. They all really care about how you are and feel.

If you are needing plastic Surgery in any way, this is the place to go. Dr. Shaw has the best bedside manner, really
Five blazing stars in my book for Dr. Shaw!!!
I have wanted this surgery for at least ten years and I finally did it. I am thrilled with the results. Dr Shaw did an amazing job! My goal was to have normal proportioned breasts that fit my body size and Dr. Shaw nailed it! He is extremely personable and his kind mannerisms and patience put my mind to ease before and after surgery. Thank you Dr. Shaw, your work is truly a work of art and has given me a sense of confidence and pride in my appearance!

30th Birthday Present to Myself. Springfield, MO
I have two kids that I gained a lot of weight with and now I've lost 67 pounds. The excess skin and fat have made me insecure for years so I decided to make the jump. My surgery was completed on August 17 and I'm extremely excited to see my results. I never really do anything for myself so I'm happy that I've taken the step to get this done Updated on 19 Aug 2016: The pain hasn't been too bad yet. I think the binder is helping and I've been taking my medicine on schedule. Updated

6 weeks post op. - Springfield, MO
I am 23 years old, a full time college student, with 2 little boys at home that I take care of with the help of my amazing boyfriend. Of course, I got these awful battle scars from my children. I had my first right out of high school, I was 18 and gained a total of 65lbs. I went from 140lbs to 205lbs by the end of my pregnancy. I gained 85% of that weight in the last 3 months, leaving me with this nasty tummy! My 2nd pregnancy wasn't as bad, I only gained 35lbs and it was so

4 weeks out - gets better every day
I am 34 year old mother of 2. My kids are 12 and 10. I've wanted to have this surgery done since having my second child. I am 5'6" and am currently 127 pounds. When I was pregnant with my children I gained about 75 pounds each time. My skin has little to no elasticity and I was left with a lot of extra, sagging skin, as well as a split abdominal wall. About 4 years ago I scheduled a breast augmentation and a tummy tuck. After looking at pictures of the scars, the drainage tubes,

One full month with new boobs!
Ive been considering a reduction since puberty. I am 21, 160lbs, 5'5", with a 34DDD/34F. I just had an appointment with my PCP on the 31st, with good news, he gave me the referral I needed! I then had to go get X-Rays of my spine, to prove I have no underlying issues causing me back pain. I heard back from the doctor, and the x-rays came out good, no issues found. I have my consult appointment with Dr. Shaw on 11/13/12, and I am hoping that everything will go well
Disappointed and out a lot of money & time off work
I highly recommend finding out what your out of pocket cost will be for revisions before you choose Dr. Shaw. I regrettably didn't. Also, I should have gone with what I felt I needed instead of putting my trust in his advice. Now, if I want to get what I hoped for in the first place I have to pay again and undergo another surgery. I don't think his priorities are to the client. Obviously his priority is first his pocket book and how fast he can get to his next appointment.

Nothing Like Losing Your Breast TWICE!
Dr. Shaw is really nice and robotically sympathetic about your breast cancer. After your reconstruction though! If you're not happy, he blames it 100% on YOUR body saying it's the best outcome, but he'll redo it in a snide tone. I went to a surgeon in St. Louis and he disagreed after looking at the awful boxy half empty breasts Shaw gave me. He had no problem fixing them. I'm back to a natural full, round breast. Oh, and he listens and validated everything I said/felt, unlike
Sold me a box of Juvederm XC without telling me it would expire
This may be a bit long, but the backstory is part of the complaint which began August 2021 and has not yet concluded today, June 2022. Last year's facelift: Only talked to surgeon about 5 mins. at consult, no details about specifics/what to expect,etc., just "Yeah, I can fix that" -- And after the consult, I could only talk to staff, although I tried to talk to Dr, as I wanted to add eyes. (Couldn't -- had to wait till this year and pay again- this comes in later, too.) With anxiety
43 Year Old with 36 F Breasts - Springfield, MO
I am a 43 year old mom of 4. I was a late bloomer who prayed (apparently to much) for boobs. When I was 16 they finally started to grow and then they just didn't stop, by the time I was 18 I was a DDD and I have hated them since. Now that my kids are grown and I have time for me I decided it was time for the girls to go! I have lived with back pain and sore ribs from under wire bras that never fit right even though I spend a small fortune on them. I started my journey back in
