Scott L. Tucker's Online Review Report Card

If you’re looking for the best plastic surgeon ever, you’ll find Dr. Scott L. Tucker at Salem Plastic Surgery, in Winston-Salem. From office staff, to nurses, to the doctor himself, I felt like I was surrounded by kind, caring family. In September, 2020, I faced a life change when I was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma in my right breast. I had to find my own surgeon, and was given the names of five surgeons. After researching each one, I chose Dr. David Carr. I didn’t know at the time, but this surgeon and Dr. Scott Tucker, plastic surgeon, had already been working together for over 22 years. Cancer doesn’t mess around, and even though mine was small, I opted for a bilateral mastectomy, with an immediate start of reconstruction in the surgical room. The first time I met Dr. Tucker, I knew I had the best. He listened, answered my questions, and explained my options. During the mastectomy, insertion of tissue expanders (which slowly stretch the skin), many appointments of saline injections into the expanders, and my many questions, he was there with patience and explanations. On March 17, 2021, I had one more surgery to exchange my tissue expanders for my desired size of permanent breast implants. I had no anxiety that morning, only a feeling of calm. When you have 100% trust in your plastic surgeon, you have no worries. My outcome was nothing less than amazing! Dr. Tucker is an experienced, impressive, and highly skilled plastic surgeon—a masterful artist! I am forever grateful to him and his wonderful staff, and will be sad when I no longer get to see them on a regular basis! If I ever choose to have any other plastic surgery in the future, he will be my only choice. My heartfelt thanks to you, Dr. Tucker!

As a Two-Time Breast Cancer Survivor, I have been fortunate to have Dr. Scott Tucker as my Plastic Surgeon. Obviously we patients want a doctor who is Professionally Smart and Skilled in his field of expertise. But we also want someone who is Personally Kind, Understanding, and Concerned about the well-being of his patients. Taking the time to listen to our questions and answer them in a calm and reassuring manner is also extremely important. Without a doubt, Dr. Tucker exhibits these Professional and Personal Qualities. However, he is not just a "GREAT" Plastic Surgeon. His genuine Commitment to helping ALL patients and meeting their individual needs with his "Attention to Detail" is what makes him so "GOOD TO" and "GOOD FOR" all those patients who cross his path. I am definitely Lucky and Glad to be one of them!

Dr. Tucker completed my Breast Cancer Reconstruction. He did a GREAT JOB! I couldn't be more pleased with the results. He also built nipples for me (mind had to be removed) and his staff tattooed 3D nipples on the newly formed nipples. I cried the first time I looked down and saw nipples after nearly a year of them being gone. Good luck to you on your journey. If you decide to go with Dr Tucker, you will be in great hands!

Dr Tucker did Breast Reconstruction Surgery for me after a bilateral mastectomy. I just can’t say enough POSITIVE things about his skills, bedside manner, staff, etc. fr start to finish Dr Tucker, and everyone at Salem Plastic Surgery, has been EXCELLENT!

I love Dr. Tucker and Salem Plastic Surgery in Winston-Salem... Dr. Tucker listens to all my (crazy) questions when consulting and have only had great results with procedures that I've had done. Highly recommend

I went to see Dr. Tucker for a breast reduction last year. From the moment I met him, I was impressed with his professionalism as well as his kindness. He is down to earth, knowledgeable and very compassionate. His staff is amazing and very welcoming. The surgery went smoothly and I couldn’t be more happy. Thank you Dr. Tucker!!! You’re truly an amazing surgeon.

This review is kinda late, but nevertheless still relevant. Had a corrective procedure with Dr Tucker and he was amazing. I would allow him to do all cosmetic procedures on me if needed. Salem Plastic surgery is the go to place for any cosmetic needs. The staff is great and very accommodating as well. Dr Tucker, hands down the best plastic surgeon around🤗

Very dissatisfied with results. I had Lipo, tummy tuck, and nipple inversion. On the third day one of my drain tube came out. Went back he said it would be ok. Went back to Dr Tucker's office several times before I was hospitalized 2 weeks later with blood clots in my leg and infection. I had to be put on strong intravenous antibiotics and blood thinners. I was hospitalized for a week Dr Tucker did follow up every day while I was in the hospital and show concern. Went back to his office week later after leaving hospital. He had to reopen wound to relieve some pressure from infection. Wound had to heal from inside out. Most of the time when you had an appointment you might see him 2 minutes rest of the time you saw the nurses. He had to redo one breast because the nipple went back in. Both nipples should have been redone. Also I was told that a year later he would check to see if anything else needed to be redone. Never got a call for this appointment. When I checked they said if I thought I needed to see him I could make an appointment. Now I am having to see a vein surgeon where my veins got so screwed up. The vein surgeon says that I am going to need some stents in my leg and pubic area to try to straighten the veins out and not 100% if it will work. The scars on my tummy look terrible and my pubic area looks deformed. He had a couple of nurses that were very good (the brunette). There was one I refused to let her treat me she was so bad and according to her tag she was an RN. Please get a second opinion before letting Dr Tucker do your surgery. I went in for a nip and tuck and ended up with all types of complications. According to my attorney it would be to no avail to attempt further legal action.

This Doctor was so professional, yet compassionate to my needs. He knew exactly what I was looking for when I didn’t really know for sure myself. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a bit of a refresh :) God bless!

Dr Tucker did an amazing job on my surgery. He also has the best office staff. Would highly recommend him.
