From the reviews
At first I was hesitant to schedule an appointment with Dr Schumann because of some of the reviews. I’m glad I didn’t let that stop me from trusting him as my doctor for carpal tunnel surgery. We have a high deductible and Dr Schumann worked with me and was very reasonable.
I had a bump on my finger that was growing for over a year. I finally went to get it checked out and was recommended by a friend to see Dr. Schurman. He was so knowledgeable and knew within a few seconds what it was and what needed to be done. I had to have surgery to remove the cyst growing on my finger.
I broke my hand this year and was surprised to hear that I would need surgery to correct the fracture. Dr. Schurman was so patient with me in answering all my questions and letting me know what all the options were and how each path would effect my recovery.
Dr. Schurman performed an abdominalplasty, tummy tuck, and lipo to flanks and mons and I am so happy I chose him as my surgeon! Dr. Schurman thoroughly explains everything, gives an honest opinion, and delivers exceptional results. He was my first and only choice as a board certified plastic surgeon!
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.
