About Ohio Plastic Surgery Specialists

What is Ohio Plastic Surgery Specialists?

Ohio Plastic Surgery Specialists is a plastic surgery practice at 1085 East Johnstown Rd, Gahanna, OH 43230. It serves patients from Columbus and the surrounding Central Ohio area. The phone number is (614) 682-5095, and office hours are Monday through Thursday 9 AM to 4 PM and Friday 9 AM to 1 PM, with a daily lunch closure from 12 to 1 PM. Dr. Walter L. Bernacki, MD, a board-certified plastic surgeon, leads the practice. Holly McKibben, CNP, is a Certified Nurse Practitioner who sees patients for the weight loss program. The clinic describes its experience as "decades," without giving a year it opened.

The practice mainly does surgery, including breast, body, and facial procedures such as liposuction, tummy tuck, and facelift. It also runs a med spa with Botox, dermal fillers, laser hair removal, and body contouring. The GLP-1 weight loss program is one of its services. It uses semaglutide or tirzepatide, given as a once-weekly injection. Every patient starts with a 30-minute consultation with McKibben, and Dr. Bernacki oversees the treatment protocols. The clinic offers a monthly membership with check-ins and InBody body composition scans, plus a microdosing membership for patients focused on maintenance or a gentler start. In its own words: "our program is built around monthly provider check-ins."

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. That includes the consultation, the monthly and microdosing memberships, the medication, and the surgical and med spa services. It does not say whether the membership fee covers the medication, whether it accepts insurance, or what its cancellation terms are. It lists payment and financing options, but no amounts appear with them. Call (614) 682-5095 and ask for each number before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes and signs the prescription for semaglutide or tirzepatide, and how Dr. Bernacki's oversight works in practice. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication vial and injection supplies, or whether those are billed separately. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, since the clinic does not say. Ask what the consultation, check-ins, body composition scans, and any lab work cost. Ask whether check-ins can be done by telehealth or only in Gahanna, because the clinic does not address telehealth. Ask whether it accepts insurance, HSA funds, or financing. Finally, ask how you cancel a membership and whether there is a minimum commitment.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live in or near Columbus, can visit the Gahanna office during its hours, and want a GLP-1 program with a nurse practitioner and a plastic surgeon overseeing it. It may be a poor fit if you need a price before you book or want to handle most visits by video.
