30 years old, 5ft 9in, 135lbs, no kids. I lost 30lbs over the course of a few years and lost my breast volume in the process. I also have pectus excavatum (concave ribcage) which became more apparent with my smaller breasts. My surgery goal was to get a very natural, proportionate, "my breasts but better" look that replaced the loss of breast volume, especially at the top/upper pole. I looked at many portfolios of surgeons in my area and chose to consult with Dr. Stern because

She was honest.
Saw Dr. Stern for a consultation for labiaplasty and clitoral hood reduction. After looking at my anatomy and listening to what end results I wanted she kindly told me that she didn't think I'd be happy with the results if she did it. She does not do clitoral hood reductions and instead of taking me as a patient knowing I wouldn't be happy with the end result, she told me I should look elsewhere. I appreciate that honesty.
Two days pre-op and I'm so excited and nervous at the same time! I'm sure everything is going to go great, and it is just my usual old anxiety about something new and what's to happen in the future driving these feelings of slight unease. I want to say thank you to any one that is reading this that has already been through the procedure. The stories I've read of others journey's has helped me in making informed choices and good questions to ask. My stats are: 5'2"; 90Lb; 41 year

Amazing Results and an Awesome Experience.
Dr. Stern took her time with me and answered all my questions I had. The day before my surgery I had a change of heart of what I had visioned for my breasts. I read all kinds of reviews on under muscle and above muscle implants. I was sure when I went in I wanted under muscle. As I did more research I became uneasy about under muscle and the look I really wanted. She took time out day of to explain the best option for me. She was amazing. I have already recommended her to multiple
Don't wait, just do it! I am thrilled with my results
Dr. Stern and her staff are simply the best. I was very apprehensive about doing any kind of plastic surgery and went back and forth with it for over 2 years. I had always had very large breast and after kids (two c-sections) I was very self conscience of my body. Dr. Stern was highly recommended by my Primary Care doctor so I finally made the call and spoke with Lucinda, Dr. Stern's Patient Coordinator, who answered many of my questions and put me on the list for consult.I still

So Worth It
I am 50 yrs old in April 2019- My weight is around 120lbs. I am 5' 6" tall- I got breast implants at age 27. They were 225 CC Smooth Saline under the muscle (incision in armpit) - I have always felt they were not "me"- but was always self conscious about my small chest and I was very much into fitness/ body sculpting. Back then, all the images on TV and media were women with "perfect" bodies (w/ huge boobs)- and I was young and insecure- Fast forward - 2 kids, breastfeeding,

It was the best thing I have ever done!
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.
