From the reviews

I had the best experience with Dr Schaefer doing my brachioplasty. His staff at the office and at the surgery center were all so kind all the way through the process. The morning of surgery he came in the pre-op room and marked up my arms with purple pen showing what he was going to remove.

★★★★★ — Kathy, Oct 2025

Dr. Schaefer is a very talented and seasoned surgeon. I’m very pleased with my results and his work has improved my quality of life so much. At the age of 49, I feel the best I have in many years. I’m grateful to him! I had my surgery at the Waconia Ridgeview facility and they took such great care of me.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Jun 2026

I saw some feedback that Dr Schaefer didn't assure them and make them feel comfortable. I'd like to say, doctors are definitely not known for the way they talk but their work!!! Amazing skills, technique, and team!!! I am currently two months post op. I have very little scarring, I healed up so nicely!!!

★★★★★ — Joanne, Dec 2023

I had a procedure done by Dr. Schaefer and my results were excellent. His staff is friendly and professional. His nurse Lori was easy to reach to answer my questions. It is convenient that Dr. Schaefer sees patients in Waconia as this is closer for me than Edina.

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.
