SCULPT cosmetic surgical facility closes amid growing malpractice scandal against its medical director

Dr. Gerard Stanley Jr. has abruptly shut down
his surgical clinic on Friday amid numerous
claims of medical malpractice by former patients

The controversial Omaha-based family practitioner at the center of fifteen medical malpractice lawsuits for performing botched cosmetic surgical procedures has quietly and abruptly shut down his cosmetic surgical center for good on Friday, according to a letter he posted to his patients on the surgical center's website.

In that letter, Dr. Gerard Stanley Jr. wrote that that he has closed down his SCULPT Contemporary Cosmetic Surgical Center effective as of Friday, October 13, 2017, but he will "remain in the community" for his patients should they need anything.

Dr. Stanley stated that his surgical patients have his personal cell phone number, and they are welcome to contact him should they have any questions or need continued care or referrals to another cosmetic surgeon.

Stanley stated that he has refunded prepaid fees on every surgical appointment reservation SCULPT has on file, but encourages anyone he might have missed to contact the clinic.

He, however, also said, in the same breath, that two of his associates will continue to see some of his cosmetic surgical patients at his father's clinic, Time Health Clinic, on West Maple Road for certain other cosmetic procedures such as Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, dermal fillers, laser treatments, microneedling and dermaplaning.

8 more women come forward to file suit against Omaha family practitioner for botched cosmetic surgeries

Eight more women have come forward to file medical malpractice lawsuits alleging medical malpractice against an Omaha family practitioner and his cosmetic surgery clinic.

The victims all claim Dr. Gerard J. Stanley Jr. had misrepresented his credentials as a "board-certified" surgeon, qualified to perform cosmetic and plastic surgery.

The eight new suits allege that the victims had suffered similar outcomes of disfigurement, permanent scarring and pain after undergoing the knife that seven previous suits had claimed back in August at the hands of Dr. Stanley and his Sculpt Cosmetic Surgery Clinic.

Stanley now faces a total of 15 medical malpractice lawsuits against him in Douglas County District Court.

Dr. Gerard J. Stanley Jr., a family practitioner by trade and not a board certified plastic surgeon, was named as the defendant in civil lawsuits filed by seven women who claimed they were severely scarred and disfigured after receiving botched cosmetic surgical procedures from Stanley at his West Omaha clinic, Sculpt Contemporary Cosmetic Surgery LLC.

Omaha attorney James Martin Davis, who represent the seven women and two spouses, filed the civil medical malpractice lawsuits on behalf of the victims in Douglas County District Court filed last week.

The women allege they went into the cosmetic surgery center run by Dr. Stanley for a variety of elective cosmetic surgical procedures, including liposuction, buttocks lifts, breast augmentations, and eye lifts within the last two years, thinking Dr. Stanley was a board-certified plastic surgeon.
