Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

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.

As a Two-Time Breast Cancer Survivor, I have been fortunate to have Dr. Scott Tucker as my Plastic Surgeon. Obviously we patients want a doctor who is Professionally Smart and Skilled in his field of expertise. But we also want someone who is Personally Kind, Understanding, and Concerned about the well-being of his patients. Taking the time to listen to our questions and answer them in a calm and reassuring manner is also extremely important. Without a doubt, Dr. Tucker exhibits these Professional and Personal Qualities. However, he is not just a "GREAT" Plastic Surgeon. His genuine Commitment to helping ALL patients and meeting their individual needs with his "Attention to Detail" is what makes him so "GOOD TO" and "GOOD FOR" all those patients who cross his path. I am definitely Lucky and Glad to be one of them!

Dr. Tucker completed my Breast Cancer Reconstruction. He did a GREAT JOB! I couldn't be more pleased with the results. He also built nipples for me (mind had to be removed) and his staff tattooed 3D nipples on the newly formed nipples. I cried the first time I looked down and saw nipples after nearly a year of them being gone. Good luck to you on your journey. If you decide to go with Dr Tucker, you will be in great hands!

When I hit 40, I felt I needed reduce my wrinkles. Since Dr Tucker is my go to for all things cosmetic, of course I called him. He did an amazing job. I moved a couple of years later and did two rounds of injections with another Plastic Surgery office. both times I was disappointed. Needless to say.... Dr Tucker is worth the drive!

From day 1 after my implants were placed they looked disfigured. I thought it was just swelling. I had several follow up appointments and not 1 time did he mention that something was wrong. It hasn't been a year yet and they need replacing. One is much larger then the other, sags, and is pulling the other down. I have to now wear a bra 24/7 to help with the discomfort. Even my oncologist said they need repairing and suggested a 2nd opinion. I would not recommend him to anyone.

I had a few things done by Dr Tucker in 2016 and I think he is a very awesome physician. He could not have done a better job with my issues. He also helped my mom with some things and she was very pleased too. I highly recommend him if you have some things you would like to correct, that require a plastic surgery Dr.
