Love Dr. Tholen. During my initial consult, he and his staff made me feel very at ease. I was a little concerned that they were going to react negatively to my desire for such big breasts but they were very accommodating and encouraging. Dr. Tholen's assistant/ nurse (Amy or Amanda?) was the best; she was very informative and sweet and was a huge part of me choosing Dr. Tholen. They took so much time with me and answered every question I could possibly think of and so much more. Scheduling was a breeze and working with Sarah, who coordinates the surgeries, was an absolute pleasure. I was able to pay with my debit card right over the phone and she made sure I had what I needed to get my physical in on short notice. Darin, the nurse anesthetist, was great. Super down to earth and clearly had a lot of experience. We joked around before surgery and his casual confidence really put me at ease. One of the other staff members, Crystal, called and followed up with me the night of surgery and they also gave me Dr. Tholen's number in case there was an emergency. The surgery also went really well and at four days post-op, I am back to my office job and driving my kids to school. The bruising in minimal (just a little above the incisions) and he was very direct with the instructions that I need to follow. The recovery period has been far easier than I anticipated and I'm very happy with the results. De. Tholen's knowledge and comfort with his patients is unparalleled. I feel like he knows more about breast augmentation than most plastic surgeons could ever even pretend to know. He was honest about potential complications but also assured me that his stats are pretty impressive. Plus, he endured my not so lady-like talk as I was coming out of anesthesia with a smile and a nod.
