Associated Plastic Surgeons - E Philip Gutek

I had seen Dr. McClung more than a decade ago for a procedure and still look great! So when I wanted to have that 50,000 mile overall performed there was no other plastic surgeon in my mind for the job.

I've trusted Dr. McClung with four surgical procedures, all with phenomenal results. His professionalism, precision, and caring attitude are much appreciated and his nurses and staff are equally outstanding. I'm so happy to have a the best plastic surgeon in Kansas City!

Dr. McClung is the best! I didn't know what to expect because it was my first surgery but this was a breeze. I got a breast reduction done a month ago and I'm so happy with the results. I'm healing great. My breast look wonderful now and are the perfect size for my body. Im so happy with the results!

These folks are amazing. The experience is obviously a nerve racking one, but the APS team made the process comfortable. Dr McClung is an artist and Joyce has been a blessing to work with from day 1 all the way through. Awesome experience!

Okay I'm going to take my time and throughly explain my experience with APS and Dr. Cannova. I've had two children, one 9lbs, one 10lb 12oz. So I had very big babies and my belly was completely stretched out. I had pockets of stubborn fat that I could not get rid of. I finally turned to surgery, which I knew was going to happen, I research four different places. APS was over all my favorite, and by FAR.

I looked into all the doctors that work at APS and Dr. Cannova seemed the best fit, I then proceeded to schedule a consultation with him. The consult was great, him and his nurse, Alyssa, took the time to answer all my questions. (Which I had a lot). Alyssa is the sweetest girl and helps you through the process and the nerves. She's also a huge KC fan, which made me like her even more!

That day I scheduled my surgery, about 3 months later I had my surgery. (which there were many dates available sooner than three months, but I wanted a certain time.) At the surgery center Dr. Cannova was ready and you could assured me everything would be just fine. He explained everything to my husband and I and answered even more questions. I had a tummy tuck, and basically 360 lipo, just not in my arms.

This man is the LIPO KING. I only had bruising on my outer/inner thighs and slight bruising on my back. And honestly recovery isn't as bad as people would think! APS answers your questions day and NIGHT. I did my research on multiple doctors for about a year, and I am so thankful I went with APS and Dr Cannova.

I could not be more pleased with my entire experience at APS. Dr. McClung and his team were unfailing courteous, professional, and most importantly did a fabulous job. Cannot overstate how please I am with the results; Dr McClung does outstanding work. My outcome was exactly what I was hoping for. Five stars +!

This was a tough review to have to write. When I started looking for a plastic surgeon for blepharoplasty, I was getting a wide variety of pricing and I also knew what price range I was trying to stay in. When I spoke to Rochelle at Associated Plastic Surgeons, she indicated they could do the procedure and stay close to my price because they could do the blepharoplasty in-office.

After a 2 month wait for the consultation, I was broadsided when it came to sitting down to discuss the billing. I went from $3500 to $6105 because they said they couldn't do the blepharoplasty in their office. I had spoken to other surgeons but cancelled those appointments because ASP sounded like they were going to be able to pull this off for me.

I decided to call ASP to see if there were other options. Two days after my call, Rochelle did call to discuss what had happened and I asked to see if there were way of meeting more I the middle of a price I was comfortable with. She indicated that she was going to speak to Dr. Young and that I would hear back from some within a day. That was 4 days ago.

In hindsight, this now feels like bait-and-switch and since no one is returning my calls, it appears the practice of "take it or leave it" is at hand. I feel like I've wasted 2 months, waiting to meet with Dr. Young, when I could have been exploring other options. This was just bad patient/doctor relations and clearly they should not be quoting one price just to get someone into the office, only to switch the price later on.

I am one year post op from my mommy makeover and I couldn't be happier with my results. Any concerns I have had have been addressed and followed up on! I would recommend Dr McClung and his staff to everyone!

I would like to share my gratitude and thank Dr. McClung and his staff for their great care and help on the procedures I had in August 2021! I would also like to share if anyone is thinking and questioning in having any procedure's to make an appointment with Associated Plastic Surgeons! I had the opportunity years ago to listen and learn from my mother and aunt who had procedures by the doctors at APS!

The experience, care and results, "Amazing"! I had my eyes done, Blepharoplasty surgery - Rhytidectomy-Buccal Fat Removal & Neck Lift by Dr. Mark McClung. They help you at every step of the way! Thank you Dr. McClung, Joyce and staff!

In 2020 Dr. McClung and his team helped me with medical and ellective procedures of my eyelids and nose. He even coordinated the timing of his procedures with necessary medical eyelid surgery from another practice. The care provided by Dr. McClung and APS has been a positive experience. I am now over a year post operations and am thrilled with my results.

After two years of consultations and reading reviews, I chose Dr McClung to do a lower face and neck lift on March 16, 2021. I am so happy I did! The results are amazing. He did exactly what I wanted. He gave me a refreshed and younger version of myself. Very natural! He is a very skilled surgeon, not to mention, his office staff are all very warm and caring.

If you are on the fence about doing this, don't be! Procedure went smoothly, recovery was not bad at all. I went back the next day to have the wrap removed and smiled when I saw the results and I have been smiling since. I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much Dr McClung!

Highly recommend Associated Plastic Surgeons. I love my dermatologist Dr. Shahrooz, she's fantastic. Really kind and takes her time listening and understanding. She's so professional, but still warm and caring, I love her and my esthetician Kerry : the MedSpa is the best! I know that there's so much information out there about skincare, but nothing beats qualifications, education and actual doctors/trained professionals.

I think it's important to do your research, but you can't take matters into your own hands lol we don't know what harm we can do. YouTube is great lol but I suggest to come to Associated Plastic Surgeons. The staff and everyone who works here is so polite, nice and welcoming. I live in Lawrence and have been coming here for over 2 years. 40 minute drive, but totally worth it. A true gem in Kansas!

Dr. McClung is an amazingly talented surgeon! His bedside manner, detailed explanation of what to expect and his genuine care for his patients both pre and post op, sealed the deal for me! I had an entire Mommy Makeover and my results are even better than I hoped they'd be! I highly recommend Dr. McClung and his nursing team!

Dr. Cannova Exceeded My Expectations - I recently had breast reduction surgery. My recovery went well and my breasts are perfect with minimum scarring. He does outstanding work. What I love the most is that he is a perfectionist and cares about his patients. He and his nurse were patient and addressed all of my questions and concerns. I lived with back pain including upper back spasms for too many years. And I had instant relief after the surgery. Thank you!

I have been making jokes about getting a boob job and tummy tuck for something like 15 YEARS now (I am 44) but finally pulled the trigger and DID IT eight weeks ago with Dr. Rast of Associated Plastic Surgeons. I have to admit I didn't do much research into Dr. Rast or the office before I made my selection, but he's done work on several women I know and trust, so I just went with my instincts after our initial consultation and I'm so glad I did.

Although my results aren't totally final yet (4-6 months for final results from tummy tuck, who knew?) I am super duper happy with the process and my current results. If you didn't KNOW I had work done, you wouldn't KNOW, if that makes sense. Everything looks very natural, just, like, a better version of my self. Dr. Rast himself is just GREAT, very chill and personable, not pushy or cheesy or judge-y.

He listened to what I wanted and gave me realistic expectations of my pain level, results, recovery time, etc. His nurses, Sage and Vicki, couldn't have been nicer when I called repeatedly with my inane random questions. I wouldn't hesitate to go to Dr. Rast again for future work if needed and would absolutely recommend him for anybody looking.

Terrific results. I don't know what else is more important. Dr. Cannova was able to perform a complex procedure without the need for anesthesia cutting the cost in half compared to other surgeons. I was so comfortable that I could have napped thru my procedure. Recovery was closely followed and I knew what to expect every step. Highly recommend Dr. Cannova. Liked the $$$ savings too!

I had a bilateral mastectomy and implants done by Dr Mcclung in 2016. The mastectomy was in March and final implants were in oct of 16. He was very professional and did an excellent job. I am almost a year out from my mastectomy and I am still very pleased! Every doctor I see compliments the work that was done! The implants look natural and my 3-D nipple tattoos look VERY real!

I am 100% satisfied with their work! His staff was amazing, compassionate and professional! I never felt like a cancer patient. Cancer isn't easy but they made the journey tolerable. I highly recommend Dr Mcclung and his entire staff! I will definitely be using them again if I ever desire to have more work done!

Dr. Gutek performed my facelift and surgery on my eyes. The results far exceeded what I expected! The procedure and the healing went smoothly. Dr. Gutek is truly a very gifted plastic surgeon! Also, the follow-up he provides during the healing process was very reassuring. He is a very caring doctor, with a wonderful bedside manner. He excels in his field!

Knowledgable esthetician who knows her products and is cautious with new clients and how they will react to procedures. I'm a fan of the chemical peels and have been going monthly with great results. Next up is the TCA peel which will make me look like a burn victim for 6-10 days but it's the price you have to pay($200) to get soft, wrinkle free FRESH skin again after years of sun damage.

I was absolutely blown away at this place. Amazing operation. The doctors are very helpful and knowledgeable. My wife wanted a breast reduction and tummy tuck and was very concerned about doing a surgery. The doctor and nurse made her feel at ease and did a phenomenal job on my wife. We both thank you!
