"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."

Her applications are almost painless! I encourage you to schedule your appointment with her today. You won't be disappointed."

"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!"
"Michelle Besner is the best! I’m a bit of a wimp when it comes to microneedling and she’s able to take care of me easy peasy. Definitely recommend her. She tells me exactly what I need and gives me all my options… I’m already seeing results after the first treatment ✌️"
"I've been coming here since 2005! The physicians and staff are extremely helpful, exceptional and experienced!! Ashley has been doing my Botox for many years! Trust her expertise so much!!"
"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 had an excellent experience from start to finish. Dr. Sternberg was professional, welcoming, and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. His nurse Lisa is amazing!

She always addresses all my concerns and is very polite and professional.I truly appreciate the skill and attention to detail every time I walk in the door at PVPS!I would highly recommend PVPS, Dr. Sternerb and Ashley to anyone considering a procedure, botox or laser treatments.

For a major surgery, it is worth saving up and getting it done right. I am thrilled with my results, he does amazing bellybuttons!I would recommend Dr. Sternberg to anyone. He is extremely competent, thoughtful, and kind!I will add photos when I’m farther out to show results :)"
"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!"
"Katelyn Oldenburg was very professional and knowledgeable, answering every question thoroughly. I received the Moxi laser treatment, and while my skin does look better, the results weren’t quite as dramatic as I expected after just one session. It seems like multiple treatments may be needed to achieve the outcome I’m looking for."
"I’m grateful for my experience with Kylene, and have seen her for hydrafacials and microneedling. She is extremely knowledgeable, and customizes her clients’ experiences to best fit their needs.

Her personality is warm, reassuring, and genuine, and she really takes the time to get to know her patients—not just what you want done, but your comfort level and pain tolerance too.I have zero pain tolerance, so lip filler is a huge stressor for me, and Carrie goes above and beyond every single time. She makes sure everything is properly numbed, checks in constantly, and walks me through what to expect with each injection—letting me know honestly if there may be discomfort so there are no surprises. That level of care makes all the difference.She’s patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly thoughtful in her approach. I trust her completely and wouldn’t go to anyone else. If you’re looking for an esthetician who truly cares about you and your experience, Carrie is the one. 💕"

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.

"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"

"After much research I went with PVPS to do a mommy makeover, something I never thought I would ever do. I struggled for years with low self esteem before and after kids and weight gain/loss. After finally losing weight after my kids I looked at my self and was tired of being depressed about my body. So I had the wonderful staff at PVPS put me back to the way I was and let me tell everyone, it was worth every penny just to look and feel comfortable in my own skin for the first time in my entire life. From the very first call I made to their staff down to my most current appointment I have had nothing but wonderful interactions and experiences with every single staff member. You can tell they care. Yes you are paying them but they are honest about everything and want the best for you! They are like cheerleaders for you. I wish I could remember all the names of the staff I have met but Dr. Mitchell did an outstanding job with my mommy makeover, Brittany Cherry is his coordinator and is such a sweetheart ,considerate of you, and very easy to talk to. Kristen Murphy is the nurse for Dr. Mitchell and is just as amazing and helpful. She answered my every question after my surgery with little downtime/wait. Dr. Mitchell took my call when I had an urgent question very near Christmas. They are all so calm and patient. They are truly wonderful people who want to help others. I thank each and every one of them for helping to give me love back to myself. Dr. Mitchell was so detail oriented with my procedure that I went in feeling prepared. If you are thinking about doing anything cosmetic please consider everyone here at PVPS, they never once pressured me and are up front about cost right after the consultation. The consultation fee was $100 but makes you a lifetime patient with them. Thank you PVPS staff/family!"
"I recently saw Kaitlin DeClercq for a Deluxe Hydrafacial, and it was a dream! She has such a calming presence, offered recommendations for continued improvement of my skin, and helped me relax throughout the process. My skin looked completely transformed and refreshed.

"I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Sternberg. Once we started talking I knew I made the right choice in picking him. He made me feel incredibly comfortable. Especially about things I’m self conscious about. I went into the consult with 3 surgeries in mind. He was honest about what he thought I needed and surgeries I did not need. . He was candid, explained both procedures, recovery time, what results would be. Lisa (his nurse) who I met for pre op and was with me the morning of my procedure was wonderful. Surgery day went smooth well! Everyone on the operating team was kind and answered any questions I had. Ultimately I went with abdominal/hip liposuction over a tummy tuck. I could not be happier and I’m only 4 weeks post op."
"I’m so glad to have found Sharon for my Botox treatments! She is professional and kind and always meets my needs every visit! I couldn’t be more satisfied and highly recommend her to everyone I know."
"11/10 recommend Katelyn the PA. She is amazing. She listens to your concerns and develops a care plan personalized to you. She is very attentive and has the gentlest touch. The filler was pain free. Not to mention the magic she did with dysport. Cannot say enough good things about her. Best provider I’ve seen. Highly recommend!"
"I had a hydrofacial with Amanda earlier this week for the first time. I have never been a fan of facials only having one years ago that I did not enjoy and did not see any results really. But THIS FACIAL was all it was cracked up to be. She did an amazing job. It felt wonderful and my skin has never felt better. I will definitely make hydrofacials with Amanda a regular part of my beauty routine"
"It is always a pleasure walking in the door and to be greeted by Emily. Emily is sunshine in the front office. I had my first hydro facial with Michelle. She was absolutely wonderful and I will most certainly schedule another facial with Michelle. Jennifer is the go to for your Botox needs and much more. Thanks for making all of my visits special!"
"Absolutely love going to PVPS Amelia island. Kimberly Black Gibbs is phenomenal and always makes me feel so comfortable! She does Botox better than anyone I’ve ever gone to. The whole office staff is very welcoming and friendly. Would definitely recommend!"
"Kim Gibbs- is the very best! She made my botox injections a breeze and she's a pleasure to be around. I'll never go to anyone else- period."

"At nearly 70 years of age, my skin looks and feels better than it has for most of my adult life. Many thanks to Christine Weber, a master Skin Health Specialist, who I saw for both Moxie and Microneedling procedures at the Ponte Vedra location. I never imagined that at this age, the skin on my face could look so healthy, clear, and well, glowing. My goal was to look my best without surgery or fillers and Chris has helped me achieve that, along with recommending products that actually work. I'm finding I don't need nearly the number of products I tried or used in the past. Both Chris and her Skin Health Concierge Sarah Alkhoury have been absolutely wonderful and a joy to know! Highly, highly recommend!!"
"I had a fabulous hydrofacial with Michelle at PVPS- Saint Johns location! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming! Michelle is warm, and makes you feel relaxed instantly! I appreciated how she explained each step of the facial as well. I was impressed with the instant results! I will definitely be back! I highly recommend PVPS for your skincare needs!"
"I went in for a Hydrafacial last Tuesday. Had the BEST experience ever. First we talked about my concerns. Kylene made me feel so comfortable about my concerns. With talking about that we went into talking about skincare products. Also Kylene made me feel so good and helped me understand everything about product and my skin. So with that we did the Hydrafacial. I left there glowing and feeling amazing. One week later my skin is still glowing and the products I highly recommend as well. Kylene is absolutely wonderful and very professional. Can't wait for my next visit with her and many more.Thank you Kylene for making me feel pretty."
"The team at PVPS is the best in class. I had a seamless experience with Dr. Sternberg & his team including Lisa his nurse and Bri his patient care coordinator. All staff members are so sweet! I also go to Kristen for my injectables, she is incredible. The expertise at PVPS is unmatched and is my one stop shop for any aesthetic need!"
"Today I had a peel Facial with Mary and in the past, I’ve had Hydro facials with her. She is wonderful always makes me feel comfortable and welcome and does a great job. Anything she has done with me."
"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!!"

"I love the clinical staff in Amelia Island, Kim does an amazing job with Botox and juvederm placement. Always a pleasure and feel better about myself after my visits, thank you Kim!!"
"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."
"I was very impressed with the staff at PVPS. Everyone was very friendly and efficient. I had a facelift performed by Dr. Bates. I have been so happy with my results. Dr. Bates listened to my concerns and offered his professional opinion. My results were so natural but made such a difference. I feel the results were exactly what I wanted to achieve. I would highly recommend Dr. Bates if you are considering a facelift. My experience with PVPS was wonderful!"
"I recently had a rhinoplasty surgery with Dr Ellen Hancock, and I must say I am so SHOOK with how much I love it. I was very worried in the beginning because, you know, it’s your face. The results are so amazing, I 10/10 recommend doing it if you’re thinking about it!!! I had my rhinoplasty on a Thursday, cast removal on the following Wednesday, swelling was minimal for me but very manageable. I was rarely in any pain. Thank Dr Hancock!!!"
"Incredible experience and results from Erez Sternberg, MD. His attention to detail, precision, and ability to deliver exceptional results for his patients is truly impressive. I had a mommy makeover after having three children via c-section. I was left with loose skin that diet/exercise could not fix..no matter how hard I tried. Pre-surgery my body was in the best shape that it could be..so I went in for a consult with Erez Sternberg, MD and knew that I didn’t need to look any further. He was confident that he could not only meet, but exceeded my expectations, and honestly was a perfect match for me as a surgeon. If you want to look your best, feel more confident, and have done the best you can do to get back into great shape, look no further than Erez Sternberg at PVPS."
"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 🥹"
"In April I made a huge change. Something I wanted not only physically but needed mentally. I met Dr Hancock and felt understood and she was the woman to make this dream happen! I had an abdominal muscle repair, tummy tuck with a monsplasty. I am so happy even 5 months post op! Nurse Lindsay was amazing as well they both made me feel so comfortable leading up to the day and even now months after. The recovery nurses were amazing and encouraging and were there for all my questions. I have personally had another experience at another surgical company and the way that I was treated at this one was as if I was family. They are available for any questions or concerns that I have through my recovery time. I recommend Dr. Hancock to anyone and everyone I know. She is patient, knowledgeable, and is a master with stitching! There are parts my scar where you cannot tell, I even had surgery. And again, I’m five months out! Thank you, Dr. Hancock for taking such good care of me and I will be using you for all future procedures!"
"Ponte Vedra plastic surgeons is amazing! Everyone & I mean everyone is so nice & super approachable. I’ve had a mommy makeover with Dr. Hickman. She’s my favorite gal. She did phenomenal work & I couldn’t be more pleased. Mary did my facial & she’s also really sweet & did a great job with my facial. I will only go to Ponte Vedra plastic surgeons for any cosmetic anything. I love this place & their staff!!"

"I absolutely love PVPS!! Dr. Bates performed an amazing tummy tuck for me and I’m so happy with the results! Rosie was incredible throughout the entire experience and went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and answer all my questions!! I also receive Botox, Filler and Lasers with Kristen Dixon and she does a fabulous job!! She is knowledgable, thorough and makes it as pain free as possible!! Sarah Porter is also a gem of a human- helping me make appointments, answering all my questions and assuring my needs are prioritized. Lastly, Katy Hickox is amazing for my facials and derma planning needs- she’s gentle, knowledgeable and kind!! My confidence is soaring with the help of PVPS!!!"
"I went to my consultation with Dr. Hancock in May/June 2022. She was very nice and very informative on what she could offer me. She never tried to push anything else on me she listened to my concerns and I actually put my deposit down the same day. The staff at the office is absolutely amazing! When I had questions they always answered without hesitation, even my emails had a prompt response. I did get an abdominoplasty with liposuction! I’m still in love with my results! I would recommend Dr. Hancock and her team to anyone looking to get plastic surgery!"
"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!"

"Michelle has been doing my facials for years. She truly is the best, she’s so knowledgeable within all aspects of the aesthetic industry. She is always there to hear out my concerns of my skin. Thankfully she’s always sure to recommend multiple solution routes to take. Michelle is the only person I trust with my skin. (Especially acne prone)"
"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’m one year post op and I’m so happy with my tummy tuck results from Dr Hickman. She was warm, positive and kept me at ease. I highly recommend this place and Dr. Hickman as your surgeon. The staff was also very warm and professional."
"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!"
"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."
"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!"
"I am turning 70 this year and I ask a lot of questions……Kimberly very patiently explains everything in detail.Always being very pleased with my Botox and Laser treatments, I asked her for a little something more.Kimberly explained the aging process and suggested Sculptra. It’s been 10 weeks since I had Scupltra injections.Kimberly’s expertise exceeded my expectations. What a fabulous pick me up. Friends are complimenting my hair, but that’s not it. Ask her to show you my before and after photos."
"I can’t rave enough over the amazing service that Kylene provides for me & my skin! She is so knowledgeable about the skin and products that PVPS offers! I have people ask me all the time about my skin! I owe it all to Kylene! Moxi & Skinpen are two of my favorites! Could not live without my PVPS Amelia office visits!"
"Michelle is so kind and takes all my comments into deep consideration when concerns regarding facials. We are coming up on one year together. Can't wait for the before and after.I love our conversation other than facials. Always asking how my family is.Incredible woman."
"100/10.Not to be vain but my lips look better than anyone I know & my face is always glowing…. Don’t assume I’m saying I did this on my own, I wouldn’t be this beautiful without PVPS!!!! In all honesty & seriousness, I’ve had breakouts for as long as I can remember & not only did PVPS help me but they also provided me with the skincare & regimes to ensure I don’t have to worry anymore. They have not only been the most kind, helpful & lovely med spa I’ve ever been to(trust me I’ve tried them all in jax) but they’ve made me so confident which in turn, has resulted in my life being AMAZING.SO, needless to say, go here. Also, they don’t push you into things, they aren’t pushers, no one likes a pusher. Not to mention the staff & how they have all become people I look forward to seeing!! Sarah Porter takes the cake, need anything or have questions, that’s your GIRL!"

I had surgery with Dr. Sternberg, botox & fillers with Sharon, facials with Mary, and my daughter had surgery with Dr. Hickman. We couldn’t be more pleased. It is so refreshing to see a business that operates in the manner they do…they take the time to really listen in order to give you exactly what you’re looking for, they stay educated and up-to-date on their craft, they take excellent care of their staff, it’s no wonder that every single person there is a joy to talk to and work with. In fact, every time I visit, I wish and envision myself working there, ha ha!!"

"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."
"Dr Hickman was so amazing for my breast augmentation and lift, from the initial consultation to post op! She even called me the day after surgery to check on me. I felt very cared for and comfortable the whole time. I would 1000% recommend PVPS and Dr Hickman."
"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!!!!"
"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 had my breast reduction in July 2023 and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. Dr. Hancock and Lindsay were so helpful, kind, and understanding. They answered every question I had and never made me feel silly, despite how overwhelming planning for a surgery felt! Recovery was much easier than I expected, and I felt very prepared to take care of myself. My results are absolutely gorgeous— I have no more back pain or any other physical symptoms, and I feel so much more confident. I finally feel like I belong in my body, and it’s all thanks to Dr. Hancock’s fantastic work. I can’t recommend her and the PVPS team enough. 100 out of 5 stars!!!!"
"Amazing!! Dr. Holly Hickman preformed a bilateral breast reduction on me and turned my G cup into a full C!! Everyone here is so caring and kind through the whole process and they truly listen while giving realistic expectations. 10/10 recommend this place if anyone is thinking about cosmetic surgery!"
"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!"
"I just had a breast reduction with Dr. Hancock n I want to say I’m very please with my result. I love the fact that Dr. Hancock and the other staff made me feel comfortable with my very first surgery. They answered all my questions. Honestly just a amazing experience."
"Dr. Hancock changed my life! The breast reduction was recommended many times throughout my life but I never did anything. I decided to look into it and my Dr recommended DR. Hancock! Her and her staff are super friendly and make you feel super welcoming! Anytime I had a concern and or question Dr. Hancock and her team were right there! After the surgery I’ve been able to do things that I haven’t been able to do in years. Such as being able to go on a run without being in pain, being able to walk without being in pain and my favorite thing in the whole entire world being able to jump on the trampoline with my two nieces and not feel held back and or in pain! Highly recommend this staff to anyone looking!"
"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!"

"My initial consultation with Dr. Burk was on Amelia Island. Everyone there was helpful, and answered all my questions. I has upper eyelid surgery at the Ponte Vedra location January 31st of 2024. It was easy. They took care of any pain issues, were available at any time for follow up calls, and called to check on me the next day. Excellent results. Dr. Burk is really awesome. Lynn Aiello"

"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!!!!"

"Such a wonderful group of people! Every person involved in my care was outstanding. My surgeon, Dr. Hancock, is awesome. She listened to my concerns, explained options, and made me feel so comfortable and confident. In addition to being a great person she is an extremely talented surgeon!Lindsay, the RN that works with Dr. Hancock is professional, expert, and kind; she was always available as liaison and educator. Christine, the RN that cared for me during my overnight stay was amazing! I felt safe, comfortable, and in great hands as I woke from my long face and neck surgery.The pre and post op care from my esthetician Michelle was excellent. She made me feel so welcomed and her experience is priceless. Last but certainly not least is Beth, Patient Care Coordinator, who explained the financial side of services. She was wonderful! PVPS is the total package. I now look great and feel better about myself than I have in twenty years. Thank you all so much!Carolyn BSN, RN, CNOR"
"I have been seeing Audrey for about 2 years, I remember the first time I met her she was filling in for another PA. From the moment she entered the room, she was warm and friendly.I was only doing Botox at the time and she took so much time and care to ensure even the small amount of units I was getting was perfect.She took photos (which no one had before) and made me more comfortable than anyone previous had.Over the 2 years I had lost quite a bit of weight and became pretty self conscious about my loss of volume in my face and I put her through many consultations (sorry girl) until I finally pulled the trigger and received mid face filler. I absolutely love my results it’s so soft and natural! I couldn’t have ask for a better experience or kinder person! If you need someone who truly listens to your concerns and needs, Audrey is your girl!"
"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 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 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.

We are so grateful to all the staff for an incredible experience."

"If you are looking for excellent skin care on Amelia Island I highly recommend a visit with Kylene Globis of Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery at their newly renovated (it is stunning) location on First Coast Highway. Since my relocation to North Florida in 2021 Kylene has done an absolutely outstanding job of taking care of my skin with regular facials, treatments and product recommendations. She is absolutely everything I would hope to find in a skin care specialist. From the very first visit with her she spent good amount of time listening to my concerns and then designed a treatment plan to address those specific concerns while drawing on her expertise to offer suggestions targeting areas she saw for further improvement. Refreshingly, this is not a generic "buy a skin care line" approach. You will not be overwhelmed by an onslaught (sell) of new product suggestions and treatment packages only to find yourself completely confused staring at an impossible number of creams, serums etc. What you will find (in addition to seriously great skin) is simply this ....the more you commit to putting your skin care needs in the capable hands of Kylene the better you will become at addressing and recognizing your skin's changing needs . Do yourself and your skin a favor and visit Kylene at Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery and experience what should be called "The Globis Glow". You will not be disappointed.Tamara H.,client since June 2021"
"I can’t say enough about my experiences at PVPS and Chris. Chris does my facials each month and wow what a difference it has made in my skin! I wish I would have started years ago."
"I recently had my 2nd round of botox injections at Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery and was thrilled with the results. Ashley M. answered all my questions, calmed my nerves and suggested a conservative approach which was just what I needed. My face looks natural and better than ever!"
"Great staff. Comfortable and caring from check-in to treatments and checkout. They have all kinds of treatments from facials to BOTOX to surgery. It’s pretty amazing to have all of this here in Ponte Vedra."
"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."
"I got my lips done by Jennifer and they look INCREDIBLE! Jennifer was super sweet and took her time to make sure everything looked perfect. She was very professional and knew exactly what she was doing, she’s amazing!! I highly recommend!"
"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 !"
"Wow I really can’t say enough about the professionalism of this facility. I had pretty major work done FDL tummy tuck from losing 271 lbs. I did have a bleeding complication and they were right in top of it the whole staff there made me feel welcome and well taken care of. All the check up calls on Thanksgiving and check ins from the Surgeon we’re amazing. Again I strongly recommend Dr. Rumsey. So happy."

"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’ve had fillers and Botox in the past. Carrie is absolutely the best with technique and results!I barely bruised and am so happy with the outcome.Kim is our secret at Amelia island! We are lucky to have her as a skin care specialist.Thank you PVPS for keeping Amelia Island beautiful."
"Kylene did an amazing job during my first time experience with a hydrafacial. The process was very tranquil. I felt so pampered and comfortable; leaving not only with my skin feeling amazing (in fact, the best of all time) but also equipped with educational advice concerning better skin care habits for continuation of results. Kylene's passion and knowledge are equally impressive. I visited the Amelia location which is quaint, has a most relaxing environment and is conveniently located for those in or near Nassau County. I highly recommend Kylene & PVPS and am confident that you will not leave disappointed! Book Today! Thanks again!"
"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. He is very gifted at his skill & exceeded my expectations! I would go to him again for any procedure in a heart beat. His office staff are great. He's a great PS and I'm super picky! I had an awesome experience & so happy I choose him! I would like to thanks Rosalie and Beth for keeping me relax and calm they help me wit my fears.. 😀"

"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!"
"Dr. Christopher Bates and his nurse Rosie Silva are the absolute best! From my first consultation through each follow-up appointment following my tummy tuck and liposuction surgery, they have made me feel like I was their only patient. Their professionalism and concern for how I was feeling following my surgery and the time they spent listening to me is something I've never encountered before in the healthcare industry. Anytime a call was made to the office with questions, I would receive an immediate phone call from Dr. Bates. I so appreciate Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery and each staff member I encountered treated me with such respect. To be honest, I love this practice and I share my experience when talking about my surgery with my family and friends. It's my honor to recommend Dr. Bates to anyone looking into having plastic surgery. You know, plastic surgery really isn't what they do...caring and concern for their patients, that's what they do!!!

She has an expert eye for symmetry and how to ensure you look like your best self! She is incredibly thorough and meticulous. She has an insanely solid background in plastic surgery and hands on training from all her years as NYU. Your face will be in expert hands with nurse practitioner Kimberly!"
"I had my first surgery here with Dr. Erez Sternberg and am so pleased with my results of liposuction and fat transfer to buttocks (bbl). He is very talented & he gave me my confidence back! The experience from my consultation to post surgery was great. I followed all the post op directions and recovered fairly quickly. He was honest and set realistic expectations with me from the beginning and I trusted he would delivery the results I desired. He certainly exceeded my expectations. The practice itself is beautiful and the nurses were very helpful in answering my pre op and post op questions. All in all this was a really positive experience for me. Thank you Dr. Sternberg for your amazing work!"

"I cannot express how happy I am that I chose PVPS for my first major cosmetic surgery. Dr. Sternberg gave me a mommy makeover and completely restored my self confidence. On top of being super knowledgeable, he is truly an artist at what he does; his bed side manner is professional yet comforting. Lisa, his RN, is an awesome compliment to him. She is with you throughout the entire process, always there when you need her. I am beyond impressed with my experience at PVPS. I love my new body and will never go anywhere else!"
"First-time cosmetic surgery patient; first-time surgery/anesthesia patient Period! My Dr. & staff met me at my level of experience, ignorance, & education regarding the procedure. This journey began with a dreams convo with the hubby & evolved to the results I’ll share in pictures. After hubby’s homework, we choose Dr. Sternberg of Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery. We completed an initial consultation, received quotes for several options we were considering, & made a decision within the next week or so. I’ll credit our decisiveness to Dr. Sternberg’s professionalism, expertise AND my husband’s due diligence with researching doctor’s credentials, years of experience, etc. Reviews were considered as well, but we had to consider that results are based on the individual. Any reviews we found for our doctor was nothing but positive. So, we decided on a mommy makeover-Abdominoplasty with Liposuction and Breast Augmentation/Lift with Liposuction Surgeries. After the consult, I had pre-operative appointment to sign my life away (lol)-mostly medical awareness, precautions, & pre-/post-op instructions.The only significant preparations I made were adjusting my work schedule & sending my toddler to my in-laws. My husband & other children picked up the slack during my downtime. This is important to keep in mind; while this is elective in nature, it is still a REAL medical procedure that will require some alterations to your normal schedule. I also purchased post-op meds, stocked on water/Gatorade, & altered diet items (broth, soup, applesauce, jello).I dressed in what I would need to wear home post-surgery-a front-zipped-down mumu, a long-sleeved front-button-down nightgown, oversized jogging pants, fuzzy socks (to keep on during surgery), comfy slippers, a scarf, & beanie (it was freezing the day of and after).My surgery took a total of 6 hours, but I probably wasn’t fully aware that it was over until about 1 hr 15min later. I was so cold & shivering because naturally the temperature is very low in the surgery room. I was also a little disoriented from the anesthesia-I began talking myself through what I slowly began remembering was happening. I was also talking my self out of what I thought was hearing from a nearby patient to be death-talk. Again, it was from the anesthesia-the more I became aware, the less disoriented I was. Because of the complexity of my surgery, I was an overnight stay but successfully discharged the next morning. The entire experience was very personal, seamless, and discreet. 5 weeks, 4 post-op visits later & I’m healing well and cleared to return to normal activities. My abs are still not 100% cleared (this is usually an 8-week healing process, per Dr.). Otherwise, I’m returning to as much normalcy with minimum aches and NO complications. I’d recommend Dr. Sternberg hands-down!"
"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..."
"It’s my time - I have two beautiful children who stretched me beyond belief while pregnant with them. I’m 5’1 pre-baby body I weighed 115 lbs. After my first child I topped the scale at 186 lbs. and after I had my second child I vowed I’d work hard, clean up my diet and lose the weight. I obsessively worked myself down to 107 lbs but now comfortably at 130 lbs. I’m happy at my weight but my stomach and stretch marks make me feel self conscious, unattractive and overall ugly. I’m finally at a point in my life where I’m physically, mentally, and financially ready to take on a major surgery. I did my homework and interviewed many doctors before I found the one who I feel is the best fit for me. I’ve scheduled my mommy makeover (abdominoplasty w/muscle repair, mastopexy w/o implants, and lipo to the hips,) with Dr. Cayce Rumsey at Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery. He made me feel comfortable, treated me like family and gave me his expert opinion. I went in considering adding implants but he advised against it because of my body’s natural shape and amount of tissue I already have; it just wouldn’t look right over time and I wouldn’t be happy. Which would possibly lead to another surgery down the road. I loved that he kept it real. All the other doctors I spoke with wanted me to do it and didn’t really care about anything I said in the room. Dr. Rumsey and his staff listened to me and I’m sure are going to give me the best treatment and outcome I could ever hope for. I also love the fact that no matter what, I can call and talk to either Beth or Melissa. They are there to answer all of my silly or in depth questions. I’m 4 weeks out from my post op appointment and I’ll update my journey as I go. Wish me luck!!Updated on 15 Apr 2019:My beautifully stretched out mom stomach now sits a little off center. Muscles could use some reinforcements... Utters used to feed my youngins needs some lifting to help stand at attention once again. Liposuction on my love handles because, why not?"

"Lower body lift after weight loss - After losing 170 lbs I was really gifted at hiding all the skin. If you see my gastric sleeve review you’ll see what I mean. I wore compression work out clothes and compression garments under my street/work clothes everyday. Everyday. I was a size four with skin tucked away everywhere. I even looked ok in a “tankini”, but after working 4 years to lose and maintain my goal weight I wanted more. I wanted to not wear layers of clothes in hot humid summers in Florida. Imagine rushing to a bathroom in the heat peeling off CGs then trying to get them back up?? I most likely burned more calories in a day fighting my CG than I did running!! ????. So this was the next step in my journey. I want live a normal life. I started with a lower body lift or circumferential abdominoplasty. The doc pulls skin down in the front then up on the sides and back/bottom. I’ll share this journey and hope to move on to an arm lift as a final. I am 4 weeks post op today."
"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. "

"I initially chose Dr. Erez Sternberg for my breast reduction/lift and tummy tuck procedures because he is double certified in General Surgery and Plastic Surgery. But after my consultation with Dr. Sternberg and his staff, I knew my choice was absolutely correct. Not only did he offer advice on what procedures would help my issues, he also asked my opinion on what I wanted, how I wanted to look afterward. I knew my expectations were real, I knew I would never be a size 4 again. I just wanted to wear clothes that fit. He did not push additional procedures, only what I needed to solve my issues. My surgery was a pleasant surprise. No extensive pain and very manageable. I followed the staff suggestions, did nothing for 2 weeks and recovered much quicker than I thought. After 6 weeks, I feel great. Scarring is minimal, especially in the beast area. The pain in my shoulders is no more. My posture is much better and sleeping is a nightly treat. Six weeks of recovery time is well worth the result. Would do it again, ABSOLUTELY! My sincere thanks to Dr. Sternberg and the entire staff of Ponte Vedra Plastic Surgery."
"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'm so happy I chose Dr. Sternberg! - Wow! I'm so glad I chose Dr. Sternberg! He's an artist and a perfectionist. I had a breast augmentation done and could not be happier with the results. 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."

"I had Dr. C. Cayce Rumsey III & Register Nurse Melissa Fraley for my mommy makeover. They both made me feel like I was apart of there family. They were EXTREMELY professional, not pushy, and most importantly they calmed by nerves. I was checked on throughout the ENTIRE process and this is a huge piece of mind when picking a plastic surgeon. Melissa made me laugh EVERY time I saw her and I do miss seeing her! I had three kids and I am VERY VERY pleased with the outcome. I went to 5 other Doctors before I decided on PVPS. What I love about DR Rumsey is the fact if you are wanting something done and he thinks you don't need it, he wont take your money and do it. He REALLY stands behind his work!!! Please do your research before you decide on a mommy makeover. Thank you Dr. Rumsey & Melissa Fraley for everything."
"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!"
"I'm so happy I chose Dr. Sternberg! - Wow! I'm so glad I chose Dr. Sternberg! He's an artist and a perfectionist. I had a breast augmentation done and could not be happier with the results.

"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)"
"Rhinoplasty Success - Ponte Vedra, FL - I had wanted rhinoplasty since I was a teenager. My nose had a large bump in it and I was very self conscious about it. I felt like it was the first thing people noticed about me. I felt extremely confident after my consultation that I trusted him to be my surgeon. I scheduled my surgery for about a week later. I couldn't be happier with the results. I was worried I wouldn't look like myself but it looks so natural. When I look at old pictures of myself I can't even believe how my nose used to look. I would recommend Dr. Scioscia to anyone looking for rhinoplasty. It's been almost a year since my surgery and it just keeps looking better. I love the profile of my new nose."
"I am writing this article in praise of my Aesthetician, Chris Weber at PVPS. I recently had a small procedure done and was concerned about post surgery care and maintenance of my lid area of my eye which is very delicate. I have been going to Chris at PVPS for several years now and thoroughly have enjoyed her tips and especially the expert and thorough knowledge she expends through years of her attending the most advanced progressive symposia's and certifications in skincare. My skin always looks marvelous when I follow in her advice on skincare and many family and friends have now made PVPS their skincare meca of choice and Chris as their Aesthetician. No matter if I choose to use the skincare that she recommends after she utilizes on a facial for me or to first "test drive" the skincare products I always return to get those products because quite honestly my skin just looks and feels better! Again, I returned to Chris to follow up and heed her suggestions of what would help firm, moisturize and keep my delicate eye area looking tight and smooth. I have been following this regimen and gotten many compliments. I started out after having several different skincare specialists after moving to Jacksonville but have stayed with Chris simply because I love her amazing deep cleansing facial's and how I look and feel afterward. I expected the best at PVPS but certainly surprised that Chris has elevated my experience far beyond my own expectations, she is superior at her craft! Chris is the total package for indulgence, experience and complete relaxation!"
"Close to 6mos Post Op. Jacksonville, FL - Love Love Love Her And The Staff.. She's Super Friendly Answered All my Question Made Me Feel very Comfortable. I'm Very Pleased With My Tummy Tuck. I received No lipo wish I had For My Sides but I'm planning another surgery For July if Just Lipo I'll stick With Hollie Hickman but if I plan on Bbl it'll have to be Someone else"
"No More Hanging Skin over my Beautiful Eyes! - Ponte Vedra Beach, FL - Everything was perfect! I chose Dr. Scioscia at the recommendation of a friend. - - I would highly recommend this surgery to anyone who wishes to take 10 years off their age! It looks and feels so natural that no one actually guessed that I had cosmetic surgery. I wish I had done it earlier. When I went to see Dr. Scioscia I thought I needed more than the upper lids done but he didn't think so. I also had some liposuction done under my chin as well as some erbium laser on the lower part of my face. Thanks Dr. Scioscia!"

"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."
