Meet Dr. Judith Gurley
Dr. Judith Gurley brings surgical precision, artistic vision, and unparalleled compassion to her work as a board certified plastic surgeon.
After attending medical school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Dr. Gurley completed her general and plastic surgery residency at the University of Chicago. During her fellowship at Washington University St. Louis, she focused intensely on procedures involving the face, cleft lip and palate surgery, and surgeries of the jaw, orbit, and skull. Her experience with the most delicate patients influences the approach she takes to the adults and adolescents she now sees in her private practice.
While practicing as an Assistant Professor of Surgery at Washington University, she began working in the field of adolescent plastic surgery and advocated for surgical procedures for teenagers. There she saw firsthand the huge psychological impact plastic surgery can have on a patient’s well-being and sense of self. The joy, renewal, and hope she witnessed in her adolescent patients motivated her continued advancement in the field.
After years of service as the director of Plastic Surgery at Shriners Hospital and Adolescence Breast Program at St. Louis Children’s Hospital, Dr. Gurley decided to enter private practice in 2003. Her deep knowledge of craniofacial structures and reconstructive surgery of the breasts and body affords her the ability to aesthetically shape her patients. She sees elective cosmetic surgery as a collaboration between the surgeon and her patient.
Together, patient and doctor envision and execute a new reality that can lead to greater self-confidence, happiness, and peace.

Patient Testimonials
"My breast reduction has changed my life! That surgery followed an earlier tummy tuck. I love how much better my clothes fit, and all of my athletic activities (cycling, running, and Pilates) have greatly improved because of these surgeries. I look very fit! " - Breast Reduction and Tummy Tuck Patient
"I put a lot of thought and consideration into this decision and I am extremely happy that I ended up having my procedure done by Dr. Gurley. From the beginning, Dr. Gurley and her staff were very patient and understanding. They explained every step to me along the way. At the six-month mark, the outcome has met and exceeded my expectations and the results are amazing. I only wish (like many people) that I had done it sooner!" - Breast Reduction, Lift and Liposuction Patient
"A pleasurable experience. Really!! I was always made aware of current and next steps, was made to feel comfortable and cared for, and breezed through the procedure and after-care. Dr. Gurley and her team provided the best care possible. Thank you! I am very happy!" - Breast Augmentation Patient

"Would not go anyplace else. I have seen Dr. Gurley and staff over several years and have never been disappointed or ever thought to see another doctor. Just come and enjoy!" - Eyelid Lift, CO2 Laser, Filler and Fat Grafting Patient
"The procedures were not nearly as painful as I thought they would be and the results, while they do improve with time, were very apparent immediately. I love all the staff and Dr. Gurley is absolutely amazingly gifted and astonishingly talented. I cannot express how happy I am with the entire experience. I am sincerely thankful and impressed. " - Mommy Makeover Patient
"My experience with Dr. Gurley has been 100% perfect! Before, during, and after my procedures, I have been informed fully, and so well taken care of medically, physically and emotionally. I am exceedingly pleased with my results! I wish I had done the breast augmentation 20 years ago and would probably not have done it without Dr. Gurley’s gentle encouragement. I’m so glad I did!" - Breast Augmentation and Eyelid Lift Patient
"Something I’ve always wanted to get done, but never found a surgeon who had great before/after examples. Dr. Gurley made me feel comfortable about the operation and everything she told me was going to happen did happen. There were no surprises. Three to four weeks after the operation, I was back in the gym lifting and running no problem. Now I can wear white shirts!" - Gynecomastia Patient
"I have been debating for five years whether or not to have this surgery. After I researched surgeons I began feeling more comfortable when I met Dr. Gurley. She was realistic and understanding. I am glad I found her and I love my new tummy. She did a great job along with her wonderful staff." - Tummy Tuck Patient
"Dr. Gurley performed my initial augmentation. There was no question who would perform my lift and replacement. I knew to trust Dr. Gurley’s recommendations on what was right for me and my body. Could not be happier with the results. The professionalism of Dr. Gurley and staff was outstanding!" - Breast Lift, Replacement, Tummy Tuck and Liposuction Patient
