I Had the Best Experience

Its really amazing what they can do! My results are more than amazing! I'm super grateful and highly recommend! The staff is so nice and they make you feel welcome. Lauren was so supportive and amazing, along with Dr. Ringler. I can't thank you enough!

Amazing Experience

Dr. Ringler is very professional and makes you feel very comfortable. He is easy to talk to and you just feel at "home" there. All of the staff are great too, everyone is smiling and happy to help. No regrets visiting this office, even though it was a bit of a drive.

Lost excess skin. Age 60, I feel 40 again!

I am extremely pleased with my results from Dr. Ringler. Not only did he have awesome bedside manners, he called me that same evening to make sure I was doing good. My friends that accompanied me for my surgery, were very impressed with Dr. Ringer and the Surgical Center. They said it's not every day you find a doctor that treats you so kind. I am 60 years old and I have never had surgery and this was my first and it was elective at that! Lauren, was absolutely wonderful to me and she was very professional and personable. She even took time out of her busy lifestyle at home to email me. That really made me feel important. She is definitely and still is my cheerleader. I have lost my excess skin and gained a new friendship out of this deal. WIN/WIN! All of the staff were also wonderful and very welcoming when I came in for my first appointment. My nervousness subsided fast. I can walk past a mirror now and not be ashamed of what I look like. Thank you Doctor Ringler for giving me self confidence, self esteem and my life back. I feel 40 again!!!

I am in my second week since surgery and the results are already amazing

I am so happy I selected Dr. Ringler for my tummy tuck. As I explored this procedure he listened to my questions/concerns and took the time not only to make me feel comfortable with the decision but also had a call with my boyfriend who could not attend the consultation. I am in my second week since surgery and the results are already amazing. My abdomen is flatter than before I had my son 30 years ago! The entire pre-op and post-op experience has been wonderful and would like to also recognize Dr. Ringler’s entire staff especially Lauren Byers who has been supportive with all my questions about pre and post surgery care. I would highly recommend Dr. Ringler if you are considering plastic surgery.

Breast Augmentation

Forceful594830

My outcome looked terrific and incredibly natural

10/10, the best in the business! Dr. Ringler is an incredible plastic surgeon. My experience was effortless, from the booking down to my recovery. I felt comfortable, confident, and knowledgeable every step of the way. Not to mention, my outcome looked terrific and incredibly natural. I am beyond grateful! I will forever refer people to Dr. Ringler with the utmost confidence.

I'm now nearing 5 weeks post op and feel amazing

Total of (2) Surgeries so far: -Back in 2016, I went to Dr. Ringler for breast augmentation. I gave birth to my daughter in 2015 and wanted back to my pre-pregnancy breast size/shape (breastfeeding did a doozie on me). The office staff made me feel welcomed, confident, and heard. Dr. Ringler walked me through everything, showed me photo examples of people with my body type and request, and Lauren & Katie assisted as well in finding the best size to meet my request. I ended up getting implants and a lift on 1 breast. It's now 2024 and I still have people question me when I say they are unnaturally my natural size. -Jan 2024 I returned for a full tummy tuck w/ muscle repair and liposuction of the flanks. I'm now nearing 5 weeks post op. and feel amazing. Recovery has been a breeze for me (everyone is different). I've already been out dancing with friends, ridden my horse at a walk, and back doing light workouts. I do not believe any other surgeon and support team could make this happen

I Am a Total Wimp, and Never Had Pain! This Team is AMAZING!

Amazing! The office staff, medical staff and Dr. Ringler provided unparalleled care and skill in every aspect of my experience. I had a full lift with incision around my entire mid-section, lipo on my flanks and fat reinjection into my butt. I am beyond thrilled with my results just six weeks recovered from my procedure. I never believed I would no longer have an "apron belly" or the additional fat above my hip area removed. Dr Ringler must be part surgeon part magician based on my beautiful results! I also must say that this is my first surgery EVER. I have never had a C Section (three children delivered traditionally, hence my repair work now to my belly), no repair or elective procedures in my life and I am in my mid 40's. I was nervous, and truth be told, am a bit of a wimp when it comes to pain or feeling nauseous. I will tell you that I NEVER felt pain or ill during this entire procedure or recovery. Uncomfortable, yes, to be expected. But never pain, never regretting my choice, never unable to move or eat. I would say without hesitation, if you are thinking of having a similar procedure, or any procedure, GO TO Dr. Ringler. I have done research in the area and he is the BEST. I also have to say his staff, particularly Lauren (IFKYK) :) is one of the reasons I felt so comfortable. She is encouraging, answers all questions, shares experiences and expectations and is there through the whole process. And she was completely right about many things, but one thing in particular, my only regret in this whole process, was not doing this sooner!

I'm so beyond thrilled with my results

Excellent. I'm so beyond thrilled with my results. I'm so glad I finally decided to do this for myself, and that I found such an amazing surgeon. From start to finish I felt confident in my surgeon and the staff at the office, and with the help of Lauren who walked me through and answered any questions I had and made sure that I was happy throughout the entire experience.

Mommy Makeover

Pehmcke07

Beyond Exceeded my Expectations

Years ago I had Dr. Ringler do a fat transfer on my face from losing so much weight. I was so happy with my results. I came back with another goal in mind I was greeted warmly. What impressed me was that Brooke recognized me as a previous patient. I came in to have consultation with Dr Ringler he was very kind and courteous as ever. He was so thorough and knowledgeable at explaining everything and most importantly honest to me about the pros, cons and all options and possibilities. With out me even asking I appreciated that so much.I don't think he left anything out. What sold me to get it done was when I met Lauren. She was such a sweetheart very compassionate. Even shared her personal story with me which she didn't have to. I'm a very nervous person and often think ok if something is going to go wrong it's going to happen to me one of those freak accidents. She helped put me as ease. She told me to keep on touch if I needed anything. Honestly we have. She's been a big part of my successful journey and my biggest support.I couldn't of done this with out her.I'm beyond happy with my mommy makeover. It has over exceeded my expectations. Dr Ringler is gifted at what he does. He has a passion in work and it shows. Just looks at my photo it speaks the truth.The day I had my procedure and got home Dr.Ringler called me to see how I was doing and told me to call him if I have any issues on his cell. This was on a holiday mind you. Who does that?!A person who truly cares about his patients! Dr Ringler and Lauren are one of kind. I'd recommend them to anyone you won't regret it. You will just wish you did it sooner.

Liposuction

Jubilant520956

Absolutely worth it - would highly recommend this procedure

I consulted a couple of surgeons and the staff (Lauren) within Dr. Ringler's office and his bedside manner were both exceptional. I had a platysmaplasty with submental liposuction with Dr. Ringer and only wish I had elected to do this sooner. I was treated with kindness when I asked for a surgery reschedule, the scheduler found an alternative date soon after. I had zero pain and mild discomfort (tight feeling in the neck when I looked up) for one week after. I historically bruise terribly, but I was happy to find the bruising for this was on the sides of my neck with a small amount of fluid on my chest for two to three days (comparable to 1/3 cup of water under the skin). I immediately noticed the improvement and would highly recommend this procedure. I appreciate his skill, his staff that are welcoming and kind, and the candid feedback he provides. Zero complaints and zero regrets. I would recommend the office (and have) to family and friends.
