Provider Review
I knew Dr. Stridde was the perfect surgeon for me after my first consultation. I had a long list of questions about breast augmentation, and he spent all the time needed to answer all of them. I left feeling educated, confident and excited to book my surgery. My consultation was mid-January and I booked my breast augmentation surgery for the end of April. Two weeks prior to surgery, I went in for my pre-op appointment, during which he answered new questions I had and finalized my size and type of implant. I left with a folder of instructions for pre and post-op care and phone numbers I could call if something urgent came up both prior to and after surgery. Dr. Stridde is a respectful surgeon who wants to ensure each patient's happiness with their final look, and I went into all appointments with no specific size in mind, but trusting his decades of experience to help find the perfect implant size. I'm so glad I relied upon his eye for symmetry, and also for his understanding of the best size for my frame. We ended up deciding on 565cc textured silicone implants under the muscle, and they're perfect. Because of the way my natural anatomy is, he suggested the textured implant in order to avoid having the implants slide into my armpits. Again, his expertise and experience lent themselves to this decision - one I'm very happy with. Another of the many reasons I also chose Dr. Stridde as my surgeon is because he does his surgery in a surgical suite, with the same team of people he's been using for over 10 years. Having the confidence I did in the people he's worked with for so long made it an easy choice. Hospitals will typically have a different group of people working on each surgery, thus negating the familiarity of a consistent team like Dr. Stridde's. The experience I had at the suite was incredible. Comfortable, professional and wonderful! The team Dr. Stridde uses at the surgical center is amazing. Tracy, his nurse, has a way of making you feel like you've known her forever. And Dr. Brandford, the anesthesiologist, is amazing. His many decades of experience were evident in all aspects of the anesthetic process. I arrived the morning of surgery feeling a bit nervous, but was quickly set at ease by the team. I was made comfortable with warm blankets and easy conversation, and before I knew it, surgery was over and i was on my way home. Recovery was amazing! Much better than I could have ever hoped for. I was able to move my arms (something Dr. Stridde had me start doing in recovery to stretch out the pectoral muscles), and the pain was minimal enough that I only needed Extra Strength Tylenol for two days post-surgery. I'm now 10 weeks post-surgery and I'm absolutely thrilled! I've been back three times for follow ups and every time, Dr. Stridde has been happy with my healing and recovery. Dr. Stridde's pricing is also very competitive. He offers a 5% discount on his fees if you choose to pay with cash. My one piece of constructive criticism would be to allow patients who want to pay cash the option of a bank draft or money order (the equivalent of cash) to avoid carrying around a wad of bills. :-) I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Stridde if you're considering plastic surgery - specifically breast augmentation. His many years of knowledge, along with his continued participation in industry studies and knowledge gathering make him, in my opinion, the best choice!
