I had two procedures and a consultation at Edina PS and Med Spa, and I couldn't have asked for a better first-visit experience! Everyone was kind and professional, giving me real insights without "overselling" and even telling me when something might not be a fit for me. I met with several different associates and providers between the two adjacent offices, and each person was warm, caring, friendly, and welcoming. I can't wait for my next visit in a couple of weeks, since I know I'm in such capable hands here.

The entire staff including Dr. Leigh, made me feel that I matter... When one gets to a certain age, you feel at times like you are invisible. My experience was the entire opposite! Great wonderful knowledgeable appointment...Thank you!

I recently underwent upper eyelid surgery with Dr. Christine Stewart, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, every step of the process was handled professionalism and care. Dr. Stewart took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answer all my questions, and ensure I felt comfortable and confident in my decision. The surgery itself went smoothly, and the recovery process was much easier than I anticipated. The results are absolutely natural, and exactly what I had hoped for. If you’re considering surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Stewart. You can feel confident choosing her for your procedure because of her expertise, compassion, and commitment to excellence.

I could not be more pleased with Dr K and his staff. Dr K did great work and made great suggestions that I would not have thought of. He is very engaging and easy to talk. He is so kind and definitely has a good sense of humor! 3 months out and I m extremely happy with my surgery results! I recommend Dr K very highly!

Dr Leigh’s care and attention to detail has made my results better than I imagined. He took time to answer all my questions and truly help me achieve the results I was looking for. My recovery was better than expected and dare I say relatively easy to what I was expecting. I received a nice care package for my home care that had everything I needed for weeks of recovery. I feel so great 8 weeks post op. Thank you for heartfelt work Dr. Leigh and team! Shout out as well to Haley M too the best of the best surg tech. Thank you for taking such good care of me :)
