Quoted from bobukcat:

Even if you don't have a hot air station you can usually remove smaller chips like that by solder-blobbing all the legs together on each side and just keep moving the iron tip back and forth until you can pull up the chip with tweezers. Then clean the pads up with a sucker or wick and solder the new one on.

Heads up.
This technique (solder blob) might work, but the main obstacle to removing this and other voltage regulators that Stern used is to heat the part sufficiently (either from top/bottom/both) so that the exposed pad on the bottom of the chip releases it's solder joint from the board ground pad. It takes a lot of heat to do that. It's a non-trivial job even when not in that tight of a space.
