"I had my breast done in January with Dr. Hickman and she was amazing! She took her time with any questions during the consult, making sure I was completely informed and comfortable. Her work is amazing, I love the outcome."
"I was very scared to take a leap and get a much needed breast reduction. However, I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Dr. Hancock! She took me from a large G to a C/D and I always tell her she is now one of my favorite people in the world. She has been extremely helpful, supportive, and informative both before my operation and post-op. I would highly recommend that you choose Dr. Hancock if you are considering getting a breast reduction. The office staff are all very friendly and supportive as well, and were insistent that I call with any questions or concerns regarding my recovery.Thank you, Dr. Hancock and everybody at PVPS for such an amazing experience!"
"I came to Dr. Hickman to replace implants and remove scar tissue caused by radiation from my DCIS capsular contracture. Although I have yet to see the final result, I can say that my postop recovery has been going very well for the past three days. I have not had pain due to the excellent postoperative plan she provided.I chose her because of her experience, doing this type of surgery in the excellent reviews that she has had in doing so.The care and concern she has shown gave me confidence in my selection and I have not been disappointed ‼️"
"I absolutely love love love Dr. Hancock. She is super sweet & makes you feel so comfortable. I had a breast reduction recently.. I was super nervous for the procedure, but this is something I had been considering since I was in middle school. Dr. Hancock & her team made the process super easy. From the insurance, to pre-op, meds, post op, day of surgery, and even having to get more sutures after for wound closure was all a great process. I was also nervous about the fact that I was african american coming to an office where I didnt see a lot of people who looked like me there. But, the office was super welcoming & professional. I also want to give a big shout out to Melissa and Lindsay for being some comforting and helping me get through this process. I am still about 3 weeks post op but so far, i love my results!"

"Dr Hickman is the Best !!Twelve years ago she did my breast reconstruction after mastectomy. She was awesome, caring and the results were better than I could imagined.Now almost 13 years later, I moved back to this area and looked up Dr.Hickman to have a implant exchange. I am so blessed and grateful to be able to have her do my implant exchange. Everything turned out as I expected "Great". I can't say enough good things about Dr Hickman,she listens and cares with her heart,she is truly a perfectionist and a beautiful person inside and out..Her staff is also amazing. I always felt comfortable about emailing or calling if I had a question, they always made me feel comfortable and never a bother. Thank you Dr Hickman . God bless you"
"I cannot say enough great things about my plastic surgeon Dr Mitchell. He performed my breast reduction and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the consultation to post-op care, I felt heard, supported, and completely confident in my decision. The results exceeded my expectations, natural, beautiful, and exactly what I hoped for. Professional, kind, and truly talented. Highly recommend!"
"Dr Hickman is AMAZING! I had a breast reduction performed by her when I was 22. Best decision I ever made. Went from size 32H to 30C & it was covered by insurance. She truly does care about her patients. I had an extremely smooth healing process and couldn’t be happier with the end results. All of the staff were always kind and knowledgeable. I recommend Dr Hickman to everyone and would go back to her again for anything!"
"I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience with Doctor’s Mitchell and their entire team. From the very first consultation, I felt heard, supported, and completely confident in my decision to move forward with my breast lift.The results are absolutely beautiful — natural, lifted, and exactly what I had hoped for. Dr. Mitchell has a true eye for aesthetics and was incredibly attentive to every detail, ensuring I felt comfortable every step of the way. The recovery process was smooth, and the staff provided excellent follow-up care that made me feel truly cared for.This procedure has boosted my confidence and made me feel more like myself again. I highly recommend Dr. Mitchell to anyone looking for a skilled, compassionate, and trustworthy plastic surgeon."
"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I had my original breast augmentation 8 years ago in Connecticut with textured implants, and about 6 years later I started experiencing fluid buildup. For more than 3 years, I struggled with complications that left me frustrated and exhausted.When I reached out to Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery, Dr. Bates and Beth immediately took my case to heart. They rushed to get all my paperwork and surgery scheduled quickly once they heard what I was going through. The level of compassion and urgency they showed gave me hope again.Dr. Bates performed my surgery with such skill and care. He thoroughly prepared me beforehand with detailed instructions that made recovery smoother than expected. Beth and the rest of the staff made me feel so supported every step of the way.After surgery, I woke up very nauseous, but the nurses were incredible — working hard and patiently to get me comfortable and safe. I never once felt alone in the process. At one follow-up, the office even surprised me with a HydraFacial at their spa — such a thoughtful gift that left me feeling refreshed and cared for.Today, I’m healing well and finally free of the struggles that weighed me down for years. Dr. Bates isn’t just a talented surgeon — he’s truly an amazing person who saved me from years of pain and uncertainty. I can’t thank him, Beth, and the entire Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery team enough.I highly recommend Dr. Bates and this office. They combine top-notch surgical skill with genuine kindness and compassion — a rare and special combination."
"Dr. Christopher Bates and his staff are kind, compassionate, and very caring. I am very pleased with the results of my breast reduction. He is a true artist. I would recommend him to anyone who asks for a plastics surgeon."

"PVPS continues to provide excellent service! I especially love Carrie for Botox , she's super gentle, and very knowledgeable. I have amazing results with every appointment! In addition, Dr Sternburg & team, hands down the best!! I'm about a year out from my breast augmentation and they are perfect,. I highly recommend PVPS for all of your cosmetic procedures!"
"I’ve had such a wonderful experience at PVPS. Dr Hancock is amazing and her staff also. Everyone has told me what to expect and they were absolutely correct. From consultation to post surgery, I have been so pleased. I would recommend to anybody. ( I had a breast reduction)"
"I had a breast reduction with Dr. Hancock in January, and I genuinely couldn’t be happier with the entire experience—from the initial consultation to the final results. Dr. Hancock made me feel completely comfortable and supported from day one. She listened to my concerns, answered every question with patience and compassion, and made sure I felt informed and confident going into surgery. The procedure went smoothly, and the aftercare was excellent. I felt checked in on, cared for, and never alone during the healing process. My results have been life-changing. My body feels lighter and more balanced, my physical discomfort has decreased significantly, and I feel confident in my own skin for the first time in years. Thank you to Dr. Hancock and her whole staff!"
"At 51 years old, I decided to finally have a breast reduction. When I hit menopause, they just started to grow again and my body could no longer handle the weight of them, the back pain and constant headaches.The only expectation I honestly had was that I would have smaller breast afterwards. And hopefully I wouldn’t have horrific scarring. From the moment I met Dr. Hancock and her team until now it has been an amazing experience. She has a very fun, with a lively personality, which draws you in. Thrilled honestly is not even the best way to describe how I feel about my breast! They’re beautiful, I mean, absolutely beautiful. I talk about them to anyone who will listen to me (lol) I will definitely be a return patient because I completely trust her to now help me make a few other modifications"
"My breast augmentation surgery with Dr. Mitchell and his staff at Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery far exceeded my expectations. From the moment I entered the facility the interaction was amazing. The entire team was friendly, engaging and professional. They ensured I was well informed on what to expect after the surgery and answered every question I had. Dr. Mitchell is an honest and knowledgeable surgeon, he guided in me in the right direction to ensure the best outcome for my breast augmentation surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Mitchell and Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery as your FIRST choice. The entire staff is top notch!"
"Received my breast reduction last November and extremely pleased with my results. Dr. Mitchell and his team were the best"
"I had the most incredible experience with Dr. Sternberg at Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery! From the very first consultation, he was kind, realistic, and refreshingly honest. He listened closely to what I wanted and made me feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process. His approach wasn’t about overselling procedures — in fact, he joked that I should just do squats instead of getting liposuction! That kind of candid, down-to-earth advice is rare and much appreciated.When it came to my breast implants, Dr. Sternberg did exactly what I asked for. He gave me a result that was natural and proportionate — making me feel like the best version of myself. He never pushed for anything excessive or unnatural, and I’m so thankful for that. He truly understands how to enhance your features in a way that feels right for you.I couldn’t recommend Dr. Sternberg and his team more. If you’re looking for a realistic, compassionate, and incredibly skilled surgeon, he’s the one to see!!"
"Dr and staff are the best . I’d give them ten Stars ‼️very happy with my breast reduction.I would recommend highly, actually already have 😊"
"The decision I made to have a breast reduction was obviously a very serious one. It would be unusual if anyone ever said that was a choice that was easy to make. But I’ve been dealing with neck and shoulder pain for a very long time, and I finally made the decision to go forward with it. I cannot express in words how happy I am with Dr. Bates, his surgical team, the nursing team and the staff at Ponte Vedra plastics. Here is a list of why: 1. The decision to have the surgery was not for cosmetic reasons, and they understood that. I felt like every single person genuinely cared for my emotional state of health, my mental state of health and my physical well-being. 2. The results so far have been fantastic. The healing is going very smoothly and quickly. Some people go into the surgery and they offer what they call wish photos, which is what they desire to look like when the surgery is complete. I did not do this. I simply told Dr. Bates please make me look proportionate - that is all I desire. Dr. Bates is the consummate professional and his talent and skill are apparent, because he was able to give me exactly that. 3. The environment of Ponte Vedra plastics is very serene, calming, clean, and welcoming. They do a very good job of putting the patient and family at ease on their big day. 4. I would trust my own family in his hands, his surgical team, and his nursing staff. Thank you specifically to Kim, Rosi, and Dr. Bates. If you are looking for a place that genuinely has their patients’ best interest at heart, this is it."
"Huge Shout out to Dr.Ellen Hancock, her nurse Lindsay and all of the staff at PVPS. I has a breast reduction on 8/5/24 and I wish I did this 10 years ago. Dr.Hancock is incredibly nice and intelligent. She answered all my questions and made me feel so much better about my anxiety and worries. Ive healed so well, and at 5 weeks my scars look amazing. My breast and nipples are symmetrical and overall I am beyond happy. I emailed nurse Lindsay a few times from home and she would always answer within 30 minutes, even late at night. Amanda was also incredibly nice and helpful and the front desk staff always made me feel welcomed. If you are looking for any type of procedure, I would recommend PVPS to EVERYONE. Thank you PVPS and Dr. Hancock for changing my life 🥹"

"Dr Hancock was amazing! She was very thorough in explaining the procedure and risk, as well as answering any questions I had. I got a breast reduction and the results are looking great so far. I still have some healing to do but it looks great and is the exact size I wanted. The care team is also incredible. Every time I go in for an appointment, I’m greeted with smiles and warm hellos/goodbyes. Overall, I highly recommend Dr Hancock as a surgeon for her skills, bedside manner, and the teams very clear care for their patients."
"PVPS is Extraordinary! From the lovely ladies welcoming me and the entire staff are very professional and extremely knowledgeable. Everyone made me feel comfortable and beautiful on the inside and out. I am 59 years old and this was my 3rd and last breast augmentation. Dr. Bates is like a breath of fresh air. I couldn't have ask for anything more. His work was phenomenal and and I am very happy with my new Beautiful and Healthy Breast. Thank you to Dr. Bates and his great staff. GO DAWGS!"

"I continue to be impressed by PVPS and their level of attention and care given to patients. I had a breast augmentation in 2020 with Dr. Sternberg and I am very happy with my results. The entire process was professional and courteous. I am now seeing Jennifer for injectables and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is not an up seller- she genuinely gives her patients her full attention and focus and is thoughtful in how she approaches treatment. She is knowledgeable and ensures her patients are informed and comfortable. Additionally, she is mindful of costs and is considerate of that which is a nice perk. The level of care I receive with her is unparalleled and I look forward to continuing to rely on her for all of my beauty needs. Highly recommended PCPS. Thank you!"

"Had a 10/10 experience with Dr. Sternberg and his nurse Lisa & patient coordinator Bri. I am a little over one week post op now from my breast augmentation and am extremely happy with my results. The whole experience was wonderful from start to beginning and the team really relieved any of my worries or concerns. I knew I was in the best hands and will always recommend PVPS- they truly are the best!"
"Dr. Hancock is by far one of the most amazing surgeons and her entire team is beyond phenomenal. From the very first consultation, to the last check up - it has been professional, fun, educational, and everything you would hope for. I opted for a breast augmentation in December and she was so informative about the process, what to expect, what the results were, etc. She and her team answered every question with compassion and didn’t let me feel silly for asking. I truly wish I would have done this sooner, but happy I waited as I fell into the best hands Ponte Vedra has. I will 100% be back to Dr. Hancock for any other enhancements and recommend them to anyone who is even considering getting anything done from head to toe. I am beyond thrilled with my results and would do it a thousand times over. Thank you to the entire staff!"
"Attention to details and after care were amazing. Dr Hickman was available for text or call for any question. I am 6 weeks post op breast reduction surgery. Everything looks amazing. The consultation process was honest and thorough, after care and follow ups are also thorough, no questions left unanswered."
"I had a breast reduction & lifts! Also had my eyes done!! Dr Mitchell is the Best!! He has my permission to do before & after pics!"
"Dr. Hancock is truly exceptional! I am thrilled with the results of my breast augmentation procedure with her. She and her staff ensured that I felt comfortable and at ease. I will definitely return to her for any future procedures."

"I recently had my first cosmetic procedure (breast augmentation) with Dr. Hancock at PVPS and had nothing less than an amazing experience from my very first consult. Dr. Hancock and all of the staff made me feel so comfortable and safe and I’m beyond happy with the results. I’ve already recommended Dr Hancock to several of my friends."
"Having undergone a transformative procedure with Dr. Hancock on April 5th, I can't express enough how grateful I am for choosing her and PVPS. Five weeks into my recovery from a breast reduction and liposuction, I feel like a new person in my body. Dr. Hancock's warmth, expertise, and genuine care not only reassured me but also empowered me throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the day of surgery and beyond, she made sure I felt comfortable and well-informed every step of the way. Dr. Hancock is more than just a skilled surgeon; she's a beacon of compassion and understanding in the world of healthcare. Her gentle demeanor and unwavering support make her not just a doctor, but someone guiding you through a transformative journey. I felt extremely frightened, especially considering I was only 20 and facing such an invasive procedure but her expertise and genuine care, Dr. Hancock doesn't just change bodies; she changes lives. I also want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Lindsay, her nurse, who patiently addressed my countless questions and concerns with such kindness and professionalism. Moreover, the entire staff at PVPS played a crucial role in making this journey so positive and life-changing. To Dr. Hancock, Lindsay, and everyone at PVPS, thank you for not only enhancing my physical well-being but also for giving me a newfound confidence and joy in life. You've truly made a difference, and I'm forever grateful💗(100 out of 5 stars if I could)"

"Dr. Hancock is amazing! After breastfeeding my children for a combined 6 years, I went to PVPS for a breast augmentation. Dr. Hancock and her staff were very professional, kind and patient. At both consultations, Dr. Hancock sat with me as I tried on different sizes and gave her opinion and advice as to what looked best with my body type. She never seemed rushed or annoyed or bothered by my many questions. It was truly a wonderful experience, and I am so happy with my results."

I will be back for sure! Thanks again for everything!!!!"
"I cannot say enough good things about PVPS. Everyone was very professional and thorough. I just had a small breast reduction and lift with Dr. Sternberg and I couldn’t be happier about this decision. The entire process was smooth. Anesthesiologist was awesome. Dr. Sternberg was very easy to talk to and he really listened to anything I had to say. The nurses explained everything in detail and answered any questions that I had. At the most I would say I was at 1 or 2 out of 10 discomfort, but nothing OTC pain meds couldn’t resolve. Again, I am so grateful for the whole team at PVPS. If anyone is trying to find the right plastic surgeons for your needs…give this place a try. You won’t regret it!"

Recovery was much easier than I expected, and I felt very prepared to take care of myself.

After the surgery I’ve been able to do things that I haven’t been able to do in years.

She patiently answered all my questions, alleviating any concerns I had prior to my procedure and ensuring I felt prepared for each step of the process.Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery is not just a medical facility; it is a haven of excellence, where patients are treated with the utmost respect, compassion, and professionalism. The entire staff, from the friendly receptionists to the attentive nurses, created an environment that felt like a true support system. The facilities were clean, modern, and comfortable, further enhancing my overall experience.I cannot recommend Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery enough for anyone considering a procedure. Trusting this team was one of the best decisions I have ever made, and I am forever grateful for the life-changing results they have provided."
"I can’t begin to express how happy I am with the results of my breast augmentation. Dr Bates and his nurse Rosie took such amazing care of me from the very first consultation to every post op appointment. Dr Bates did amazing work. I told him what I was looking for and he more than delivered. When I first saw myself I knew I made the right choice with pvps and Dr Bates. I’m 3 months post op and my breasts look perfect. I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner. Thank you Dr. Bates and Rosie for taking such great care of me and making me look stunning 😍If you are thinking about a breast augmentation, this is the place to go!"
"I can’t thank Dr. Ellen Hancock enough for the wonderful job she did with my breast reduction and tummy tuck with lipo. It’s so amazing to see the results from the before and after photos. This was the best decision I’ve ever made. Dr Ellen Hancock explained everything in detail that she was going to do. Also the staff at PVPS were so helpful with any questions I had! I will be back for sure!Thanks again for everything!!!!"
"Dr. Hancock and the staff at PVPS have been incredible through my breast reduction journey. The staff is so kind and quick to respond to emails throughout my recovery. Dr. Hancock has been incredible and I’m so happy with the surgery.As a bonus the clinics are so clean, modern, and beautiful!"
"I really liked all that Dr. Bates has planned for my breast reconstruction. Actually he was the second Dr. I've gone to for a consultation. Let's just say he blew the competition away. I can't wait to get started."
"I want to thank Dr. Hancock and the staff at PVPS for taking such good care of me. From the minute I walked in everyone made me feel welcomed and well cared for.

I think you will be very happy here and I would recommend scheduling your consult with Dr. Hancock....she's amazing!"
"I traveled from NYC for a breast augmentation with Dr. Sternberg just about 2 months ago and they look just like the reference photo I provided. Dr. Sternberg and his nurse Lisa are the best! Totally worth the trip- I tell everyone to see him!"
"My daughter met with Dr. Ellen Hancock. She had a breast reduction. From start to finish, this was a smooth process. Dr. Hancock is extremely kind and calming and made, what could be a very scary procedure, something wonderful and fulfilling for my daughter. We are so grateful to all the staff for an incredible experience."
"I am so beyond happy with the outcome of my breast augmentation by Dr Hancock and the Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery team. My experience has been so great and positive from the beginning.

My goal was achieved and exceeded my expectations! I feel more confident than ever! I am so happy with the results.

"I've been a patient of Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery for 12 years, since Dr. Hollie Hickman performed my breast augmentation and she was so incredible, taking so much time to consult with me, making sure I made the best decision for my body at 22 and the results were better than I could have ever imagined. Here we are 12 years later and after much weight fluctuation, I am going back to Dr. Hickman for another procedure to get back to where I was and I can't wait! In the meantime, I am a client if Alison for all things skincare and Kimberly for a little filler and they are both absolutely incredible. Needless to say, PVPS is 12/10. I wouldn't trust anyone else. They treat me like family and I'll be a forever client - can't recommend them enough!"
"I highly recommend this practice. I have just had a breast reduction, something I have wanted to do for years. My surgery was performed by Christofer Bates he is very professional and so nice to work with. I am very happy with the outcome."
"My first surgery was a breast augmentation but this second surgery was an implant exchange with lift. After 3 kids and weight fluctuation my girls weren’t perky and happy as they once were , they were sad, huge and saggy. I was a 34F and post surgery I am now 34DD. Dr. Bates and his team are absolutely phenomenal. From the moment I met Dr. Bates he made me feel comfortable and confident he could give me exactly what I was looking for and he did! I didn’t even know the size of the implants I was getting but through their knowledge and technology Dr. Bates gave me the perfect size and was able to give me the look I desired . I feel great and I’m so very excited with the results. My procedure was done in the PVPS clinic, the staff was very accommodating and I couldn’t ask for a better experience. Do not hesitate to visit Dr. Bates and his PVPS team, he takes so much pride in his work and will take care of you even after your surgery to ensure everything is where it’s supposed to be. You will not be disappointed. Best decision ever !"

"I received services from Dr. Bates. He performed a breast reduction with nipple graft. My expectations were exceeded from my very first phone call. The entire experience from beginning to end was beyond exceptional. The entire staff is awesome, you won't be disappointed. They will make you feel as if you're their only patient. Special shout out to Lynette and Beth! Dr. B, I truly appreciate you for making me feel and look better overall."
"I was so nervous about getting a breast augmentation, I didn’t know if it’d be right for me, or if I should even do it at all. I just knew that I wanted my breastfed breasts to look better. I went with all of Dr. Sternberg’s advice and he did EXACTLY what I wanted. The surgery was quick and easy, they helped me throughout the entire process and I am so happy with the result! I will never go anywhere else in the future, I am so happy!"
"Dr.Bates did and awesome job on my Breast reduction on 7/27/21, He is very professional and listens to what you want. I couldn't be happier with how I look and feel already.

"SO Happy I Chose Dr. Hickman! - After having my 4th child, I was eager to have a “mommy makeover” to fix what multiple pregnancies had left me with. Dr. Hollie Hickman was my second consultation. After meeting with her, I immediately knew she was “the one” and booked my surgery that same day. She is a true professional and I felt very comfortable in her care. Every single staff member from front desk, to the nurses, to Dr Hickman herself has been extremely welcoming, kind and helpful at each appointment. Dr. Hickman really listened to my goals and gave me exactly what I was hoping for! I had a breast reduction, tummy tuck with muscle repair and lipo to my outer thighs. I’m now 7 weeks post-op and recovery has been a breeze. For the first time in several years, I feel confident in my own skin. I can’t tell you how thankful I am for PVPS!"

"12/26/19 I had a breast implant exchange with Capsulorrhaphy from over the muscle saline to under the muscle silicone. Recovery was much easier than my first breast augmentation.However, since my first check up, my right boob has looked great and is dropping in nicely...BUT my left boob is still high and tight. Should I be worried or is this normal? Is there any way to speed up the “drop and fluff” process for my left breast?"
"I love this place it has a very very talented team of doctors. Plus you are made comfortable once you enter the door. It has a beautiful Mediterranean aesthetic setting inside and the doctors and team are very very good at their profession. The coolest thing is for whatever you want done there is a specific Doctor Who specializes in a specific area. Rhinoplasty to Breast Implants. They really do have it all here. (Random but after they perfectly adjusted my face (in which the results I am so happy with) I also wanted to adjust my living room to match the inside of their building lol)"

"Great Service and Results - I identify as gender non-binary and wanted chest masculinization surgery but could not qualify under my insurance to have it covered as gender confirmation surgery, so I decided to try going the route of a therapeutic breast reduction, which I DID qualify for under my insurance. I did some research into providers in my area who took my Florida Blue health insurance and requested a referral..."
"Life Changing Experience - After losing 180 lbs through diet and exercise, I was left with ugly sagging skin all over my body. I was referred to Dr. Sternberg by my primary physician. What a wonderful experience it was over a two year journey to correct everything that I wanted resolved. Through multiple surgeries, Dr. Sternberg performed a Fleur-de-Lis Tummy Tuck, Brachioplasty, Circumferential Thigh Lift, Breast Lift with augmentation, Medial Thigh Lift and a Face Lift. Each surgery was a success with no complications. Dr. Sternberg and his staff answered all of my questions, and followed up with me after each procedure. I could not be happier with the results that were achieved. Dr. Sternberg surpassed all of my expectations. Not only is he a skilled surgeon, but he demonstrates great compassion and listens to what you want and then makes it happen. I am so thankful that my primary referred me to Dr. Sternberg. Overall, a life changing experience. Thank you! You are the best!!"
"Liposuction and unilateral labiaplasty. - I have decided to have liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, bra area, and outer thighs. I actually decided to add this procedure to my original decision to have a labiaplasty. One side of my inner labia has always been slightly larger than the other. This constantly bothers me and I have finally decided to do something about it. I also have a general dislike of my stomach. So I decided while I’m under for the labia plasty I might as well go ahead and have my problem areas taken care of as well. I decided to go with Dr Sternberg, as he did my breast implant exchange and lift. I love my breasts and trust he will do amazing with the rest of my body as well. I will update with before pictures soon.Updated on 26 Apr 2018:My surgery was on Monday April 23. So I am not sure if I am 3 or 4 days post op. Have had a few ups and downs. But overall I think it is going well. My friend came over and stayed with me the first night. So I had my husband here and my friend here 24/7 for about two days, Helping me with anything I needed. Lots of swelling, and bruising. But not the worst thing I have been through. I had a weird sensation in my leg and my Dr thought it may be a dvt forming, so I did go to the emergency room, and everything was fine. They believed the sensation in my leg was from the garment I have to wear. I am super swollen, but even with the swelling I can see a difference already. I cannot wait to see the final results. Attached are pics from the day before and then today. Updated on 1 May 2018:Went today for my 1 week post op appointment. Everything is going perfectly and Dr Sternberg said everything looks great. Still have some bruising and swelling as anticipated, but I am feeling better every day. My body shape is looking so perfect. My labiaplasty has come out amazing. I figured it would be somewhat symmetrical, but it is exactly the same. Amazing! Couldn’t be happier with his quality of work. He is an artist. And I would say no other plastic surgeon rivals him! He’s great. "

"My first experience with Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery was amazing thanks to Dr. Sternberg! He was able to treat my forehead wrinkles with Botox without completely freezing my face. I can still raise my eyebrows but it doesn’t cause lines in my forehead anymore! I also had a consultation for a breast reduction while I was there and I couldn’t be more excited to get this procedure done. He’s so informed and understanding that I have complete and total faith that I will come out of this survey looking exactly as he said I will. I look forward to a happier, healthier life thanks to Dr. Sternberg!"
"Dr.Hickman did an amazing job on my breast reduction surgery ? she took the time out to explain everything about the procedure and was willing to answer any questions i had. She also asked me what was my dream cup and she brought it to life ?? i couldn't be more satisfied with my results.. i would definitely recommend this place over & over again! From The professional enviorment and the genuine people.. Ms. Stacy is the sweetest she dealt with my Loa paperwork even with all the difficulties, she still managed to help me make everything work.. This place is so professional and well put together this is definitely how a buisness is suppose to be ?? thank you for everything guys ?"

I feel so beautiful! I can't say enough good things about him and his staff. So helpful and supportive. They saw me several times before and after surgery and were patient and attentive always. Thank you a million times over to Dr. Sternberg and his staff."
"Dr Burk is an extraordinary surgeon - I had breast augmentation surgery about 4 weeks ago and the result has by far exceeded my expectations. I could not be happier!Dr Burk was recommended to me by one of his own colleagues which in itself is a great distinction. He was kind and thorough in explaining the process, and always readily available to answer additional questions. His nurse Carol has been a wonderful and caring resource that made the entire experience comfortable and personal. The surgery itself was a great experience (and surprisingly easy), anesthesia is MD only (as opposed to some other local venues). I was able to go home within an hour of completing surgery and never needed to use any of the prescribed pain medicines, only Acetaminophen. Most importantly, I loved how I looked on day one, went to the beach at 1.5weeks and felt completely natural by week 3. The results are fantastic! Dr Burk is clearly an extraordinary surgeon. It is exhilarating to be able to wear his artwork on display as my own. I am tremendously grateful and would recommend him to anyone without reservation!"
"Office exceeded my expectations - Dr Paul scioscia and the entire Ponte Vedra office have been excellent ,Dana Especially ! She went out of her way working so hard with my stubborn insurance provider to help cover my breast reduction. I received the call today to let me know that the time for me to schedule is now and I couldn't be more excited . I'll let you guys know how it goes and keep you posted ! The office has been so professional , now I pray he get these boobs reduced and lifted just like I want!"
"Finally Got a Breast Augmentation at Age 33 - So I finally got a breast augmentation!!! I'm only 4 days post-op but so far I'm very happy with the results. I was a 36A before, I'm very very active, and very fit. So my concerns was how would these boobs interfere with my fitness life? And, will my new boobs close the gap I have between my boobs? (Pics below). During my consult I told the PS that I wanted to go as big as he thought was suitable for MY body frame. It's hard looking at pictures online and comparing because everyone has different measurements and outcomes are always different. So when I did look at pictures I googled girls my height ( 5'9), my body weight (140-145) and my body fat (18%). My PS was also able to show me before and after 3d images using an imaging software, Crisalix.My final decision was between 325-350cc which I ended up getting 325cc. I'm not sure what my final bra size will be because I'm still swollen and they have months to drop but I'll probably be a small C. I also decided to go with the gummy bear gel high profile implants (Keller Funnel brand) They feel very natural, won't ripple, and are 'supposed' to be lifelong. Recovery...Like I said, I'm only 4 days pre op but lemme say, the recovery is a lot more uncomfortable than I anticipated. I'm an athlete so I can handle pain and I'm also stubborn BUT, having objects placed in your chest is very uncomfortable. Rest!!! Relax!!! Take advantage of catching up on your favorite TV shows and use ice bags. One side WILL feel very different than the other. My right side is more tender and swollen. I'm also noticing more crepitus air) on the right which just feels funny.I'll post pre op pictures in a few days. Please feel free to ask any me any questions. The entire experience was fun and exciting. Just listen to yourself. Many people will try to tell you to 'go smaller', 'go bigger', 'dont get them'. You'll most likely hear more negative feedback than positive. Don't let that discourage you. :DUpdated on 21 Nov 2016:I can already see my breaths are dropping. My right breast is still pretty tender but I'm able to wear a sports bra. I can fit in my old one which was a medium but I'm super happy with how they look in a sports bra (finally! No more padding).Today is also my post op appt . Update coming soon.Updated on 27 Nov 2016:I'm LOVING the results of my BA. I still have slight discomfort on the side of my right breast. It's somewhat of a burning sensation. The incision on my right is also tender. I've been massaging the scar just because it feels good. Since my first post-op appt, I've been doing the breast exercises 4-5 times a day as instructed. My breasts are moving more which is nice. I love how soft they are!!!I've been wearing sports bra's since 1 week of sx. I'm still able to fit in mediums but still had to purchase new ones so I had more support. I'm able to drive, put my arms over my head and do light lifting. I tried doing a light job but the motion of my arms going back n forth didn't feel good so I'm going to hold off another week."

"Proud Of The Way I Look After Breast Augmentation - Jacksonville, FL - No way am I going to miss a chance to encourage anyone serious about getting breast implants to go meet Dr. Sternberg and his staff! Dr. Sternberg answered all of my questions honestly, especially about the size of implants suited for my body. He has a unique caring attitude and one of the nicest and most genuine doctors I've ever met. know that he's a perfectionist because my results are absolutely amazing! I also never had a question before or after my procedure, because Dr. Sternberg's surgery nurse Robin briefed me on the do's and do not's, as well as what to expect post op. Can't express my gratitude on how she made sure I paid attention at my pre op appointment so I did nothing to put my health at risk and prepare me for my surgery day. So appreciative that I was lucky enough to have her assist in my surgery and care and she put my mind at ease due to being so thorough.A special five star rating goes out to Jess, my patient coordinator! She has been my cheerleader since my first consult and was a big factor into why I made the decision to book with Dr. Sternberg. Jess made me feel I was at home and part of their family. The only "sad face" moment I ever had at one of my appointments was when Jess wasn't there to give me a big hug and to chat for a minute! I'm grateful for the care and support that I received from Dr. Sternberg and his staff. I never imagined I would be as happy with my results and honored to call myself a patient!"

"Can't possibly put into words all that I gained and reclaimed in my life thanks to PVPS and Dr Scoisca. I am a more confident version of myself. I found that my care began weeks before my procedures took place through emotional support and a proactive approach to healing via supplements. The staff was caring and compassionate during my consultation, surgery and post op experience. I am thankful I did this for myself and would not hesitate to recommend PVPS. (Rhinoplasty, breast lift and mini tummy tuck)"
"We will be forever grateful to Dr. Snyder and his staff . . . - In January, 2009, I was diagnosed with breast cancer; after making the decision to have a bilateral mastectomy, I needed to find a plastic surgeon for the breast reconstruction phase of this journey. I was given three recommendations to plastic surgeons; after doing some research, I crossed my fingers and chose Dr. Brett Snyder of Ponte Vedra, FL. From the first appointment (where we had SO many questions)to present day (I'm almost done!), Dr. Snyder and his staff have been extremely patient and kind, generous with their time, understanding and supportive. The first couple of weeks after the mastectomy/tissue expander implant surgery were "rough" - not knowing whether the physical aches/pains I was experiencing were "normal" coupled with a desire to NOT depend upon the pain meds sent my already over-extended emotions out of control. I contacted Dr. Snyder's answering service over a weekend; he called back right away and assured me that what I was feeling was normal and that I really WAS okay. Another time, I panicked and convinced myself I was retaining fluid around the tissue expanders; Dr. Snyder's staff went out of their way to get me into the office immediately to be checked. Of course, there was nothing PHYSICALLY wrong with me and although I was really embarassed for making such a big deal out of nothing, Dr. Snyder assured me that he'd "rather be safe than sorry" and everyone was very understanding. In my experience, the tissue expansion was the most physically difficult part of my breast cancer experience. However, I didn't go through it alone - Dr. Snyder and his staff were with me every week, empathetic to the discomfort I was experiencing while continually encouraging me toward the end-goal that would help me to STOP feeling like a cancer patient, raise my self-image and begin to see myself as a whole woman again. We were told that my "support team" would be vital to my recovery - I was truly one of the "lucky ones" when Dr. Snyder and staff became part of that support team."
