I interviewed several plastic surgeons before deciding to work with Dr. Stoker and his incredible team. From the moment I stepped into their lovely office space and was so warmly received by Autumn at the reception desk, I could tell Dr. Stokers approach was what I wanted. Everyone of his team members were personable, helpful, and caring. The charming Claudia helped me schedule my breast reduction/lift for a year after my initial visit, adding on CO2 Laser treatment for my sun-damaged skin and blepharoplasty surgery. I am now just over two weeks post op, and I couldnt be happier with the results thus far. My breasts are perfectly shaped and the lift feels amazing! My skin and eyes are still healing, but Im already impressed with the dramatic improvement to texture of my skin and the brightness of my eyes. Dr. Stokers thoughtful, kindhearted, upbeat demeanor is a bonus, but what matters more is his surgical expertise and skill, which he has in spades. Hes at the top of his profession, and I am so grateful to have found him and his talented team of nurses and assistants. Plastic surgery is a huge investment of time, money, and trust. Dr. Stoker has made my investment well worth it.

3 weeks post-op and I love my results more and more every day! I have no regrets about choosing Dr. Stoker for my breast augmentation and C-section scar revision surgery. He took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve, explained what I could realistically expect, and was very patient with my husbands concerns and questions. Everyone on his staff made me feel at ease with their knowledge and care. I can say I felt NO PAIN and, so far, my results are exactly what I was hoping for.Dr. Stone, the anesthesiologist, was fantastic. I was nervous about waking up in pain or nauseous and sick. But my fears were unfounded. I dont remember falling asleep. I woke up feeling great, yes a little groggy and my chest felt heavy, but no pain or sickness.Aubree was my nurse and she continues to be helpful. Everyone on Dr. Stokers staff has been pleasant and knowledgeable. You can tell they all love their job, KNOW their job, and truly care.When doing my research I found it extremely helpful to learn about the details from patients, so Ill tell you about my experience. His name came up on a Google search I did for 24-hour recovery breast implants. I live in the Vegas area and wanted a doctor close. But I was critical of the surgeons galleries. Dr. Stoker made the women look like themselves but better. His Rapid Recovery Breast Augmentation seemed exactly what I was looking for. I am in my mid-40s, have nursed two children, and wanted fuller breasts with nice cleavage and minimal scarring without looking overdone. My husband didnt want me risking the knife or going under. I chose Dr. Stoker because of his experience and the LA Natural look.Pain and recovery? So easy! When I woke up, I was able to move my arms freely. My chest felt heavy, that was the extent of what I felt. I went back to the hotel, ate a light lunch, and about an hour or two later I was beginning to feel sore, but not painful. I took some Tylenol and a nap for a couple of hours. Woke up, moved around, went to dinner, and then began to feel soreness again. I did take the pain medication that first night because I didnt want to wake up in pain. I could not sit up on my own for the first couple of days and needed my husband to push me from behind. But that could have been because I was wearing a girdle and couldnt use my core muscles well. I did not need the pain meds after that first night. I took Tylenol PM the second night and nothing by the third. I was sore and stiff, but never in pain. I wear a compression bra I like from Amazon night and day. I took my first real shower on Thursday night (surgery on a Tues morning) and it was wonderful. My surgical tape was still on at two weeks and Aubree instructed me to remove it. It came off smooth and easy. I watch what I lift and try to keep my elbows in until they fully heal.Ill have to update my review in a few months. Right now, I couldnt be happier! My husband is also glad I picked Dr. Stoker and surprised at how little pain Ive felt.

Couldnt recommend the team at Stoker Plastic Surgery more, especially Quinn, the PA I saw during my visit. She was incredibly patient with me (and my million questions!) and super knowledgeable about the industry and variety of offerings to meet my needs. I was incredibly pleased with my results, natural-looking, leaving me feeling refreshed and confident. Overall, my experience was exceptional and look forward to seeing Quinn and the team again soon.

Thank you so much to Quinn, the PA I saw for my treatment, and the rest of the amazing staff for an incredible IPL laser. Upon arriving to the office I was immediately greeted by the kind and friendly staff. I was blown away at the attention and they provided me as a patient. I felt so comfortable with Quinn and I’m loving my results. Would highly recommend this office to anyone who is looking for a little help to look and feel their best. I can’t wait for my next appointment!Little help to look and feel their best. I will definitely be back and can’t wait for my next appointment.

I made an appointment to get information on the available treatments for sun damaged skin. I met with Stacey, the nurse, who answered all my questions and made me feel confident about the choice I made. Her manner immediately puts you at ease. I will definitely be seeing her again

I have been coming to Dr. Stoker’s office since 2018 and have been seeing Carla Crespo since 2014 when she worked for another plastic surgeon in the area. I was thrilled when she made the decision to come work with Dr. Stoker. She is hands-down the best injectable specialist I have been to and I have seen several in the OC/LA area. Her expertise, precision and eye for seeing what needs attention, Carla always surpass my expectations. If you been searching for the perfect place for all your minor and major cosmetic needs, look no further.

I had the best experience at Stoker plastic surgery office. I got all my services done by Quinn Luster. I wanted a total face glow up and to mostly balance out my features while still looking natural. Quinn added filler to my under eyes, cheeks, jaw, and chin. Quinn also did some preventative dyspo around my eyes and chin area to prevent wrinkles from forming. I am so happy with the results and it looks so natural and more youthful. The experience went smooth and I felt super comfortable the whole time. I had minimal pain and very little bruising, just a tiny bit on my cheek. I would 100% go back to her for any injectables, she took such great care of me as well as the office staff! 10/10 highly recommend :)

I had a great experience with Dr Stoker and his staff. Of course, I did a whole lot of research prior to opting for Breast Augmentation surgery. My results came out even better than expected. Everything was smooth sailing from pre to recovery to traveling back home and recovering. I am 8 weeks post op now and my results are just amazing! I can’t say enough good words about this man and his staff!
