“I was referred to Dr Lu after receiving a diagnosis of DCIS. The treatment I chose to have was a mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. Dr Lu spent a good deal of time explaining all the reconstruction options which allowed me to make an informed decision. His skill level, training, experience, and expertise made me feel very confident in his ability to perform my complex DIEP flap surgery. From our first appointment thru the surgical process, and post op, Dr Lu has been knowledgeable, courteous, and caring. I feel very fortunate to have been in his care during this challenging process.”

“Last summer, I had basal cell cancer removed from my ear, creating a rather large opening, causing my $6,000 hearing aid to fall out! My Johnstown, PA, Conemaugh surgeon's office recommended Dr. Stephen Lu for my plastic surgery reconstruction. I was pleased beyond words with my results of perfection! He is efficient, personable, and very knowledgeable, and I couldn't be happier! His nurse, Kathy, could teach courses on organizational skills, communication, and pleasantries. I'm blessed my cancer is gone, and very grateful with my ear restoration.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Stephen Lu and the Pennsylvania Institute for Plastic Surgery. I came to Dr. Lu for a second opinion after feeling uneasy with my original surgical team—and I’m so thankful I did. From my very first appointment, Dr. Lu was kind, compassionate, and incredibly reassuring. He took the time to truly listen and made me feel completely confident in his expertise and care. Navigating breast cancer is an emotional and overwhelming journey—one I wouldn’t wish on anyone—but meeting Dr. Lu and transitioning my care to him and his team lifted a huge weight off my shoulders. My anxiety about the road ahead faded because I knew I was in the best possible hands. Although I still have a few steps left in my treatment, I move forward without fear, fully trusting in Dr. Lu’s skill and the incredible team supporting him. He is not only a gifted surgeon, but also a genuinely kind and compassionate person. I am beyond grateful and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of care. Thank you, Dr. Lu.”

“I have nothing but positive things to say about Dr. lu and the UPMC staff in Mechanicsburg. After loosing -272lbs over multiple diet phases over about 4 1/2 years I went to UPMC to look into skin removal surgery/surgeries. And I had a panniculectomy 6 weeks ago as of today and the results from the surgery exceeded my expectations.”

“If you’re looking for a surgeon who is friendly, and knowledgeable. Then you found him! Stephen Lu is amazing and I’m very thankful for my septoplasty and rhinoplasty he did for me.

Him and his team were so very nice at the hospital and his office. they took my medical anxiety and ptsd to heart and made me feel safe and at ease as possible. He is the surgeon you're looking for 🙂 thank you again 10/10”

“I was referred to Dr. Lu for reconstructive surgery after my double mastectomy. From the first appointment up to my surgery day Dr. Lu guided me through the process explaining and answering all my questions and concerns. The care I received from him, his staff and surgerical team before and after my procedure was remarkable. He truly cares for each and every patient and it shows in his work. I highly recommend him.”
Beth Wentz
“I was referred to Dr. Lu by my Dermatologist. The three times I was in the office, I was taken back for my appointment and was seen by the Dr. even before my scheduled appointment time. I'm not sure who runs this office, but they need to be running every single medical office. Dr. Lu is personable and great at what he does. If I ever need any more plastic surgery, this is where I will go and will also recommend him to all of my family and friends.”
Sarah Parrish
“I highly recommend Dr. Lu and his office. I was seen before my scheduled time for both appointments. He removed two small cysts on my cheek and neck. One month after the removal and you can’t tell anything was there or that stitches were used. Thank you!”
