We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Exceptional plastic surgeon!!
After my consult with Dr Vanderwoude I finally felt peace of mind that he could do my breast reconstruction after having breast cancer 19 years ago. I was also self conscious about my upper right eyelid sagging. He took care of that and my eyes are now bright and beautiful. He is very easy to talk to and informative, kind and caring. He and his staff are exceptional and my experience with them all was fantastic. I highly recommend him for any and all your plastic surgery needs. You will have the confidence and feel good about yourself again. I sure do!!!!! Thank you Dr. Vanderwoude and your wonderful caring staff. Melinda Fowler

This man is an artist! I am 69 years old and no amount of gym time could take away those years from my tummy. Dr. Vander Woude did just that and more. I look as good (if not BETTER) than I did at 25. I highly, HIGHLY recommend this man.

I will be forever thankful for the expert surgical care and follow-up treatment that Dr. Vander Woude and his professional staff provided me. From the very first appointment, Dr. Vander Woude listened whole heartedly to my concern. He was confident he would be able to address my issue of neck and shoulder pain by having a breast reduction. He was spot on. It was the best decision I have ever made. The entire experience in his office from all the staff was so very much appreciated. The outcome is better than I imagined it would be. This office is all about caring in addition to your safety and having a great result. Dr. Vander Woude's years of experience makes him a very trustyworthy surgeon. So grateful...…...
