"I don’t know where to start. Just so grateful to have been referred to Dr. Fine after completing 5 months of chemo & knowing a double mastectomy + reconstruction was next due to a BRCA2 mutation. Originally consulted with the surgeons at the hospital where my chemo was and I just felt very OFF with them. I called a friend of the family who is a plastic surgeon and he told me Dr Fine is who he would refer his wife to, and helped get me a consultation that same week. I knew right away that he was the most qualified person to cut me open and give me a part of myself back after the hell I went through with breast cancer. Not only is he wonderfully skilled, but his entire time are absolute rockstars who make you feel like you are their only patient. The PAs feel like family: Lexy, Monika, Catherine. We’ve truly laughed, cried, and everything in between together along this journey. Barb, their office manager, is the definition of professional. I’ve never met anyone more “on it” than her in my life. From filling out paperwork to scheduling appointments and surgeries, she’s so fast and responsive. Finally, my results are miraculous. I remember seeing myself in the mirror after my double mastectomy and sobbing, convinced I’d never look the same. Well, that’s true. I don’t look the same. I look BETTER than the old me. I have heard horror stories from fellow survivors about bad reconstruction and I’ve been so blessed to be with the best—experienced, kind perfectionists. Reconstruction is a process and I know I’m in the best of hands. Note: Pics taken 5 months apart. Hard to believe this is the same person!"
"I used Dr. Schierle (along with his incredible PA Monika) for my DIEP Flap Reconstruction after my breast cancer diagnosis. I interviewed multiple plastic surgeons but opted to go with him not only for his skilled background, but his ability to be upfront and realistic with me, while simultaneously compassionate. Hopefully I`ll never need him again for oncology reconstruction needs, but I would definitely use him for any elective future plastic surgery and recommend him to anyone who is looking for a very skilled plastic surgeon!"
"Embarking on the journey of aesthetic medicine, I found myself under the expert guidance of Rachel, a preceptor and a friend whose prowess in injector techniques was matched by her dedication to comprehensive patient care. Rachel's approach to aesthetic injections was as much about precision as it was about understanding the nuanced desires of each patient, emphasizing the need to assess facial anatomy, consider aesthetic proportions, and engage in thorough consultations to ascertain patient expectations. Under her mentorship, I learned that aesthetic medicine isn't just about eradicating wrinkles or augmenting features..it's about enhancing natural beauty while preserving individuality. Her expertise, passion, and unwavering support have not only honed my injector skills but have also shaped my approach to patients. As I continue on my journey in aesthetic medicine, I am immensely grateful for Rachel's mentorship, an inspiration whose influence will resonate throughout my career. Thank you Rachel!"
