Vanguard is the place to go for any cosmetic need! They are helpful and professional from the very beginning. I found this gem back in December of 2016 during an initial consult. Their office is immaculate! The design and atmosphere makes you feel at ease. They also have plenty of pamphlets available in the waiting area and I was able to read more about the procedures I was considering. The staff is super friendly and helpful! Also, they offer refreshments as you wait for your consult (which is

I came to Dr. Dreszer and Dr. Fletcher in early 2017 with a severe/chronic bone infection. This all began in September 2009 when I suffered a compound fracture of my right Tibia and Fibula.. Over the course of the next 8 years I went through 16 surgeries (no, that is not a typo), 5 bone infections, and one blood infection. Finally in early 2017 Dr. Fletcher saved my leg with a single surgery and I am finally well again. These guys are the best, I wished I would have went to them earlier.

Dr. Fletcher attended to my nine year old son who was seriously burned on the face and chest. Both Dr. Fletcher and his partner, Dr. Drezner, advised us as to the best way to proceed, and after two surgeries, my son looks amazing relative to where he started. I am forever thankful to both Dr. Fletcher and Dr. Drezner for all they have done for my son and my entire family.

My name is Brenda R. from St. Paul,MN and I was diagnosed with infiltrating ductal carsanoma 9 years ago and unfortunately I (I now regret) started out with a different plastic surgeon. I was sent to Dr. Fletcher to have a tram flap surgery ( those of you who had or have breast cancer you know what that is.) He specialized in the tran flap surgery. He did a great job. Then he and i spent approximately the next 8 years making me perfect and fixed the other surgion screw ups. Please choose Fletche

The first time I met Dr. Fletcher, I was impressed by his knowledge, experience, and expertise as a breast reconstructive surgeon. His kindness, personable manners, and professionalism made me feel completely comfortable. My experience with him has been very positive, and the results of my surgery were great! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a competent, skilled, caring, and compassionate plastic surgeon. Dr. Fletcher you are amazing!!
