From the reviews

As a cancer patient I found Dr. Showalter was wonderful. Always explains everything that will happen. His staff is exceptional. As a senior I have experience with a few doctors and there staffs and there are none better. If I ever need another plastic surgeon he is only one I would go to.

★★★★★ — Jackie, Oct 2019

I had surgery by Dr Showalter in September 2020. It was life changing!! I had a tummy tuck, breast lift and liposuction. He is an amazing doctor with the absolute best beside manner. He took so much time at the consultation appt to explain everything in detail and it turned out exactly as he said it would.

★★★★★ — Debbie, Feb 2022

I was referred to Dr. Showalter in June 2022 by my breast surgeon. She performed a mastectomy of my left breast late that month and during the same surgery Dr. Showalter inserted a tissue expander.

★★★★★ — Lesley, Feb 2025

I chose to wait a year to submit a review just so I could judge from my first consultation to my final post-op visit and I assure you that I could not have had a better experience than I did with Dr. Showalter and his staff. Dr.

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.
