I was searching for a dear childhood friend, Stephanie when I came upon this sad news regarding the passing of her father. Dr. Plested 1992; I introduced to my dad who was searching for a surgeon. He chose above all Dr. Plested who did an amazing job. Dr. Plested is a one-of-a-kind being who lived his life to the fullest. My condolences to his family & friends.
