Dr. Darby, you are amazing! Al has healed beautifully after his transformational surgery. Your expertise is beyond remarkable only to be exceeded by your care and concern for Al. Your words to me the morning of his surgery, " I'll take care of him as if he were my own dad", totally put my anxiety at ease.

★★★★★ — Cindy, Nov 2025

Dr. Derby is AMAZING!!!! He listened to exactly what I wanted with my breast augmentation and explained the entire process. I knew right after meeting with him, he was the doctor I wanted to do my surgery. I felt comfortable, He treated me with much kindness and patience. I am thrilled with the outcome!

Researching a tummy tuck?

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.

Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
