Dr. Alspaugh and his staff especially Nurse Patty were wonderfully attentive and comforting. I was so nervous about everything but in the end I'm happy I chose to stay locally vs going.out of the country. I was considering going to Toronto, but after being told to lose 25 lbs, even though I'm a size 7 I decided to look elsewhere. After a trusted recommendation I'm happy so far with my results, highly recommend them.
I had such a Wonderful experience with Dr. Denk and his team. Jennifer , Monica and Gabby were all amazing. The whole office was always so helpful. They took the time to answer my questions and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. This office is so caring. I have had people tell me my scars look fantastic. I had abdominoplasty and breast reduction from excessive weigh loss.
The staff is extremely friendly and professional! Donna is amazing and so sweet- she got me set up for my appointment quickly and around my chaotic schedule! During the consultation Dr. Denk was very knowledgeable and thorough with answering all my questions and providing options. I was comfortable expressing my concerns and transformation goals! I am excited to continue on this journey with Associates in Plastic Surgery!
I am confident I will achieve over and above my expectations with them!

I have always wanted to have a breast augmentation just to feel better and more comfortable with myself. Now that I have gone through with it, I wish I did it sooner! Dr. Alspaugh did an amazing job, and he made me feel comfortable through the entire process. All my girlfriends compliment me and ask where I went, and I tell them without any hesitation! He is an amazing plastic surgeon!
In May of 2012, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. After discussing my options with my surgeon, I decided to have a double mastectomy with reconstruction. Dr. John Alspaugh was highly recommended to perform the reconstruction. After my initial meeting with Dr. Alspaugh, I felt very comfortable with his professionalism and compassion. After two surgeries for reconstruction, I am very pleased with the work that Dr. Alspaugh has done for me. So much so, I had him perform an eye lift surgery or blepharoplasty. It too was very successful. I would highly recommend Dr. Alspaugh to anyone.
I want to say thank you to Dr. Alspaugh and his staff for the amazing care I received while recently undergoing breast augmentation surgery. Everyone was so warm and kind and took the time to answer all of my questions. I was expecting to be in a lot of pain after my surgery, but Dr Alspaugh utilized a new product called Exparel during my procedure and I was shocked at how good I felt after surgery. I hardly took any pain meds and was back to work in 5 days with very little discomfort! I am very pleased with my results and fast recovery,and highly recommend Dr Alspaugh to all my friends!!
I had large breasts all my life, even as a teenager. After two pregnancies, a huge weight loss, and the effect of aging, my breasts hung so low and had no shape or perk. I suffered from neck and back pain and had large indents on my shoulders from my bra straps. I consulted with Dr. Alspaugh about a breast reduction. He answered my 101 questions with professionalism and patience.
