There are truly no words strong enough to express the gratitude our family has for Dr. Jewell From…read morethe very first consultation through my mom's mastectomy and recovery, they showed not only exceptional surgical skill, but also genuine compassion, patience, and humanity during one of the hardest times in our lives. My mom was understandably scared and emotional, but Dr. Jewell made her feel safe, respected, informed, and cared for every step of the way. Their professionalism and confidence gave our entire family peace of mind, and the results of the surgery exceeded our expectations. The staff truly goes above and beyond. What stood out most was the kindness and empathy shown throughout the entire process. Dr. Jewell never made my mom feel like "just another patient." They treated her with dignity, warmth, and incredible attention to detail. That level of care means everything when someone is facing breast cancer and such a life-changing surgery. We are forever grateful for the strength, comfort, and outstanding medical care Dr. Jewell provided. I would recommend them to anyone looking for not only an incredibly talented plastic surgeon, but also a doctor with a truly compassionate heart.

From the first appointment with Dr. Liang - I found him to be patient with all my questions, detail oriented and had great expertise for the look I was going for. Natural and not overstated. Surgery went super smooth! I did have an upset stomach with the antibiotics post-surgery and when I called the clinic he got back to me super quickly. Along with Dr. Liang's medical expertise - everyone from the front desk, nurses and patient co-ordinator (I had Lupe and she was amazing) were super helpful and friendly - making the experience a good one. Highly recommend Dr. Liang and his team!

I'm a woman of a certain age, and about 10 years ago I promised myself that when I retired I would…read moreget a few procedures done on my tired and saggy self in order to live my last twenty years with some form of renewed physical confidence. Well, that time inevitably arrived and I found that it was only my face and neck that bothered me. I began the search to find the right surgeon for the work, and shelled out quite a bit of money in consultation fees with highly rated local surgeons. What ended up mattering was the "vibe" of the office, the time the surgeon spent on the consultation, and the quality of his assessment of my face and neck. My goal was to look like like a less wrinkled version of myself. I did not want to look "done." All my questions were answered and all my concerns addressed by Dr. Newman. I also loved the consistently positive nursing and office staff. I don't remember the day of the surgery with any accuracy, but I will say that the anesthesiologist Dr. Patel was incredibly kind and forthcoming. She made sure that I knew exactly what to expect. I'm very happy that I chose Dr, Michael Newman for this work. I'm nearly two months out from my neck and jawline surgery and I am so pleased. I also had an Erbium laser treatment (since I'd already be under anesthesia), so the recovery was a little tough on my thin skin. During this time, Dr. Newman and his staff basically babied me (because I AM a baby about this stuff) and he answered every anxious question with a zen-like calm. Every time I left the office, I felt a thousand times better. Dr. Newman's skillful talent is evident in my natural result, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I had a terrible experience with a previous surgeon, being a breast cancer survivor, it was pretty traumatizing. Naturally I was very nervous about getting the result I was looking for (this second go around), however it didn't take long for him and his staff, to have me feeling at ease. Dr. Newmans staff is top notch, so professional and beyond kind, from the ladies that called for appointment reminders, to the front desk staff, to the lady that was in the room with me and Dr. Newman during my consult. Dr. Newman, himself, is very soft spoken, kind and has such a good energy about him. He took his time and listened to exactly what I wanted to achieve. He asked me numerous questions and discussed in great detail what he would do to help me achieve the results I was looking for. The surgical center staff did not disappoint either. Summer was my nurse and she was absolutely amazing! So sweet, kept me very comfortable and warm while I waited for Dr. Newman. She was so good, I didn't even feel her put the IV in my arm (which is hard to find with my small veins). Dr. Patel was my Anesthesiologist (she's amazing). She called me a few days prior to my surgery and talked to me for about 30 minutes, going over everything she would do, the day of surgery, and really took her time discussing things I could do to ensure a Speedy recovery. On the day of my surgery She made me feel so comfortable and at ease! When I got home from surgery and was able to take my bra off and see my results, I cried happy tears. They look better than I had imagined. He gave me the lift I was looking for, without looking fake. Everything about them is perfect and symmetrical (which can be tricky, since I had a previous lumpectomy). Not only did I look amazing, I had the speediest recovery ever. I had very minimal swelling, no drains, only had to take 1 pain pill the night of the surgery and one the next night. I took Advil for 2 days and that was it. He is an absolute master of his craft and I will be referring any and everyone that Is looking for a plastic surgeon. Dr. Newman is the best!!!!

She's been a Plastic Surgeon for decades now and we're very fortunate to have her here in the South Bay. I have friends and family that recommend her and I've seen her work so when I decided to look into a little self care I knew where I could get excellent care and results. Made an appointment for a consultation and advice. The women at the front desk are lovely, personable and very helpful. Dr. Petti took her time to listen and explain each procedure and which would benefit me the most. I booked a surgery and am so happy that I did. Dr. Petti gave me a neck and lower facelift, followed by a laser treatment on my face, neck and chest. I'm healing very quickly and after seven weeks it looks very natural and like me but me from years ago. I had put my trust in the right hands. Dr. Petti is not only a very skilled surgeon she loves what she does and it shows. She's also warm and kind which can be hard to find at this level of care. The aftercare for the first six weeks was also top notch. I'm very grateful to her and her staff. I'll be maintaining the results with home skincare and a laser treatment at her office once or twice a year hereafter. I'm very happy after only seven weeks and know that by my six month checkup it will be even better.

I was so glad that I went for Botox a couple years ago. I'm still getting Botox a few times per year. I've also gotten the Vivace microneedling a couple times. The photo I posted shows my last visit. I'm turning 48 in December and my goal is maintenance. It takes a couple weeks to see results but I just loved the brightness, the smoothness and I'm so pleased I came. Excellent results with Vivace. This visit, I had the Cool Peel laser for the first time. I was nervous because when my coworker had it, she looked like she got sunburned real bad. Well, that's the same with me but I'm so excited because I know the lines, wrinkles, coloring etc will be reduced and more even. My coworker still looks fabulous a year later. I have a few epionce boxes, the thermal spray, the arnika forte and cera ve free samples. My favorite is the thermal spray--refrigerated of course. Dr Petti is knowledgeable, friendly, professional and I'm just happy to be around her and her staff. They know what they're talking about, and I recommend going to her for sure.

During our call today Michelle complained that they had an hour set aside for me, which I apologized for and I explained what was going on and why I was unable to make my appointments. She told me it would be the third time I was rescheduling. I apologized and told her I have done my best to communicate with them why I was unable to make it. Given the way she spoke to me, I asked for her name and I asked to speak to a manager to which she responded that she was the manager. She rudely asked if I wanted to reschedule again. At this point I said no because I wouldn't even feel comfortable having to interact with her in person let alone have a procedure done here. I completely understand that time had been set aside for me as a potential new patient, however the lack of customer service is unfortunate.

At the outset, I relayed that due to upcoming Christmas events that I could not miss, the first thing I needed to know was how much recovery time would there be before I would be able to to go out, specifically due to the events and referenced the dates. She said I would need to be at home recovering for about a week which I said would make the (relatively minor) surgery possible for me. I had my calendar and filled in the dates of the surgery and the completion of recovery along with notes re: a post surgery appointment. I bought the required meds and scheduled my calendar around the surgery. A month or more later, two days before the surgery, Samra called for the first time seemingly to be sure I was taking the pre-surgery medications. She then mentioned some specifics about the recovery period which revealed it was going to be longer than one week. I reminded her about what she had said during my appointment with her and asked her just how long I would have to remain at home and she said four weeks!!!!! I reminded her of her assurance that recovery would take a week and she denied saying it. I was also shocked as much more invasive plastic surgery ten years ago had taken a week to recover. So I cancelled the surgery as well as any further involvement with this clinic.

Dr. Irvine is not only a genius at her craft, but also an exceptionally kind physician/surgeon with…read morean outstanding bedside manner. We had a particularly unique and difficult situation when our 35-year-old son with special needs had a traumatic fall and broke his nose in two places in October 2024. His nose was visibly smashed and his breathing was badly impacted. He ultimately needed a rhinoplasty and septoplasty. After an initial consultation with another ENT left him frightened and unwilling to consider surgery, we spent nearly a year searching for a surgeon with both exceptional skill and genuine compassion. Dr. Leslie Irvine lived up to our expectations in every way! Dr. Irvine put our son so much at ease that he requested the surgery himself. He went into the hospital in an amazingly optimistic frame of mind, even during pre-op. His recovery was easier than expected, though understandably uncomfortable until the stents were removed a week later. His surgery was in October 2025, but I waited four months to write this review so we could see the results after most of the swelling resolved. We are amazed with the results! His nose looks fantastic, his breathing is greatly improved and this procedure has helped him regain his confidence. We were so impressed with Dr. Irvine's skill that six weeks ago I underwent an in-office procedure with her called VivAer to improve my own breathing. It took only about 20 minutes, strengthened my nasal walls, reduced my turbinates, and required no downtime at all. My breathing is dramatically better, I'm sleeping more soundly and exercising feels easier. We feel extremely fortunate to have found Dr. Irvine and could not recommend her more highly. If you're on the fence about fixing your nose... just call Dr. Irvine.

She took the time to understand where I was in my treatment process, and how cancer treatment affected my body and what reconstruction was available to me. I considered both DIEP Flap surgery and reconstruction using implants. She thoroughly explained what results I could expect. She understood my concerns regarding healing time and was sensitive to the fact that I am active, athletic, and that I surf. I felt completely seen and heard, and confident that her surgical options took into consideration who I am and what I still wanted to be able to do. I opted for the DIEP Flap surgery. I felt supported throughout the entire process; surgery, post-surgical appointments, and revision. And my breasts look amazing; even better than I expected. And I am surfing again.
