History

Stephen Lex, M.D., and Jack Quigley, M.D., founded Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona in 1991 after meeting during their general surgery residencies at Case Western Reserve Care System in Ohio. Their shared passion for plastic and reconstructive surgery and active lifestyle forged a partnership that has defined the practice for decades. Both are board-certified surgeons with extensive experience in cosmetic and reconstructive procedures and a tradition of surgical excellence. They remain deeply connected to the outdoor community and continue their annual “Alpine Loop” mountain bike tradition through Colorado’s high country. In 2025, Dr. Lex retired from the practice.

Adam Boettcher, M.D., joined PSNA in 2012 and has established a strong reputation for technical skill across the full spectrum of plastic, reconstructive, and hand surgery. He trained in the competitive combined plastic surgery program at Michigan State University, consistently rated among the top clinical residency programs in the nation, and is board-certified, reflecting his commitment to the highest standards of surgical care.

Brian Cripe, M.D., joined PSNA in 2022 after completing his integrated plastic and reconstructive surgery residency at Virginia Tech Carilion. He is a board-certified surgeon with expertise in cosmetic procedures, complex reconstructive surgery, limb salvage, peripheral nerve microsurgery, and hand surgery. Over the course of his career, he has performed thousands of surgical cases, authored scientific articles and textbook chapters, and presented his research at national plastic surgery conferences, underscoring his academic contributions and clinical leadership in the field. Dr. Cripe also co-founded and serves as the Chief Technology Officer of a medical device startup, Ateleva.

Andrzej Burkat, M.D., joined PSNA in August 2024 after completing the rigorous six-year plastic and reconstructive surgery residency at Virginia Tech Carilion. A board-eligible surgeon with a strong record of research and presentations on advanced reconstructive techniques, including nerve repair and eyelid surgery, Dr. Burkat brings a combination of academic rigor and hands-on surgical experience to his practice. His early career includes published work in peer-reviewed journals and contributions to surgical textbooks.

At Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona, We Invest in Patient Success

“Only at Mayo Clinic have I received such excellent care [as Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona]. Communication of what was being done was completely clear. I felt very cared for in a professional manner.”

“Dr. Boettcher is amazing. He explained the whole process to us in detail, he never rushed through an appointment. He listened to my concerns and gave me answers that I could understand. With each surgery he was very attentive and very professional. He is a very talented surgeon. My new breasts are much nicer than the originals and are cancer free.”

“I got a tummy tuck and breast augmentation from Dr. Cripe. He is by far the nicest surgeon Ive ever met. He changed my life by fixing by body after having 3 children. I never thought my body was going to look better and now I am extremely happy with the way I look. Thank you Dr. Cripe and staff for taking care of me.”

“Dr. Lex and the entire staff were very professional and comforting. Any questions or concerns were dealt within a quick and friendly manner. The results of my breast reduction exceeded my expectations and I am extremely happy about my new appearance.”

“Dr. Quigley is great. He was thorough in planning the procedure, explaining, and offering options and suggestions. The staff was super. The morning after surgery he came to my hotel room to check on me and change my bandages. The results were very satisfactory and look very natural. Highly recommended.”

“Three weeks out from my mommy makeover with Dr. Cripe and I feel and look incredible. I got a breast lift and aug, submental sculpting lipo and chin implant, and flank/low back and inner and outer thigh liposuction. Total transformation. My recovery was so smooth – off pain meds on day 1. My incisions are healing great, and I know the results will keep getting better. Can’t wait for my post-op pics in 2 months!”

“Awesome staff. My nine-year-old daughter had surgery on her thumb. The entire staff was reassuring to her. She was frightened to go under general anesthesia. Dr. Lex, the anesthesiologist, medical staff, office staff, and recovery and pre-op nurses were excellent.”

“I have been to the SurgiCenter several times and it always strikes me how warm and friendly everyone is. The procedure is always explained well, and my questions are answered. Everyone really puts my mind at ease. Thank you for wonderful treatment and care!”

“The service and care I received was more than excellent; it was superb. From the moment I stepped into the SurgiCenter, I felt safe, cared for, and confident that all would go well.”

“The amazing professional and knowledgeable staff always put me at ease. I thank you all for everything you do!”
