Dr Z and staff were amazing kind and very caring...I am very happy with the results in fact, he exceeded my expectations for a lower face/necklift took 15 yrs right off. and boosted my confidence 100% its not too tight looks very natural . I have good skin quality so healing was almost a breeze..I followed his instructions to a tee. recovery was pain free not even tylenol was used as mild discomfort was tolerable. cost was very reasonable too. highly recommend to anyone considering..meet with him! read more

I got rhinoplasty here a couple years ago. The staff was extremely friendly but the doctor not so much. He's the type of doctor to do what he wants.. not what you want. He took the hump off of my side profile but if I turn a little bit you can still see that he left a bump on both sides of my nose. It's like he only focused on one angle but forgot every other angle. I brought this up to him during my follow up and he told me to "calm down it will go away" he also said it was "normal" for tissue to come back. But this wasn't regrowth... from the beginning it was clear that there was leftover bumps on both sides. Im not sure why he kept disregarding my concerns but it was clear he didn't care about me as a patient. He wanted to charge me for the whole procedure again to fix it so I decided not to continue with his practice. 3 years after my surgery and I still have the bump on both sides of my nose. The day of my appointment when the nurses were getting me ready they were arguing right infront of me! I was scheduled as the second surgery of the day but then last minute they switched me to the first surgery. Everything seemed so rushed and maybe that's why the doctor forgot to pay attention to detail when it came to my surgery. Maybe he's good with other procedures but I wouldn't recommend coming here for rhinoplasty. He will disregard any end goal you want and override with his own idea. The front view is also crooked and off to the side like coralines nose. Will get redone at another office unfortunately I wasted my money with him. read more

I have been a patient of Dr Zewert for many years, and I will never consider going to another plastic/cosmetic surgeon. Dr Zewert is not just a compassionate and honest doctor. He is a truly gifted artist! From major to minor procedures, he takes the time to talk to you and provide his honest opinion. I trust him unconditionally. If you are considering any facial and/or body enhancement, I (like many others) highly recommend Dr. Zewert. He's a wonderful doctor but also one of the very few AND best plastic surgeons in Northern California. read more

I spent some time researching plastic surgeons before choosing Dr. Zewert. I chose Dr. Z. after reviewing all his before and after pics of clients and reading all his reviews. I was very impressed with his work and how natural he kept face lifts. I ended up having a neck and lower face lift. I am very happy with my facelift results. I look at least 10 yrs. younger. Dr. Zewert and his staff are very kind and friendly. Great experience. I highly recommend Dr. Zewert for any of your cosmetic plastic surgery needs. read more

This review is long overdue. Dr. Zewert and his team are phenomenal! I know the other reviews already mentioned how amazing they are and it is true. I experienced this first hand when I went in last year around August for a consultation. Dr. Zewert and his team make you comfortable the minute you walk thru their doors. From the staff in the front to the nurse that takes you to the back room to meeting Dr. Zewert, it was overall a great experience. My nurse was terrific, and she was down to earth. She stuck with me thru the consultation, and I also saw her on the day of the surgery which put me at ease. The front desk knew me by name every time I came in, and it was nice to see that they relate to you on a personal level. What I love about Dr. Zewert is the knowledge he shared with me during the consultation. He wasn't trying to sell me a pricey option or one that would only please me right away but would hurt my body in the long term. He was genuinely concern and truly wants the best for the client. He didn't sugar coat the process and was straightforward about the option that was best for my body type. The result of my surgery is simply beautiful, and I am so thankful I chose him. If you are looking for a great surgeon, I highly recommend Dr. Zewert to anyone looking to get work done. I could not have asked for a better doctor and team. Thank you so much for a great experience and results! read more

My second procedure I had an extended tummy tuck done by Dr. Zewert on August6,2021. As far as a surgical procedure goes, it has been wonderful experience. I lost a lot of weight so I did it not only for cosmetic reasons but for comfort. I had a bulging midsection that diet and exercise could not make disappear. I hesitated because I was afraid of the pain involved as well as complications that could arise. I was afraid I would regret my decision if I had a bad experience or looked horrible. I did my research and Dr Zewert and a few people I know referred me to Dr Zewert. Since Dr Zewert had just done my Breast Augmentation on February 2,2021. My full trust and confidence was in him and his staff. I had so many question and am happy that I went into surgery without any question. I suggest booking a consultation with him no matter what the procedure is or even if you have other doctors on your list. He and his staff are so knowledgeable that you will be well informed and know what questions to ask others. Dr. Zewert is not only a great surgeon but a gifted one but is also a perfectionist . In my opinion, he is the best that Monterey, Ca. He said that the way he performs his surgery, that pain, bruising and swelling would be minimal. I was skeptical because I have a low tolerance for pain but can tell you that if you follow his orders,, the pain is not an issue. Today I am 1 week 1 day post op and I've taken zero pain meds. I believe that sometimes we may mistaken soreness for pain. I can not believe how good I look already and the results with only get better with time. Ive had no bruising at all and as with any surgery clearly I have swelling. The price is a little more than I originally budgeted but was worth every penny. But I feel that with your body undergoing a major surgery price is non negotiable for myself that is. I have gotten more than a tummy tuck. I got a new body as well as a newfound confidence. The results so far are mind blowing and far exceeded my expectations. And let's remember I'm only 1 week post op so I can only imagine and look forward to my results once I'm fully recovered. The most important decision is picking the right surgeon. For me, that was Dr Zewert. He is caring and enthusiastic about my results as are his wonderful staff: Andi, Linda, Yesenia, and sorry I can't remember the receptionist name or the other medical assistant but they are all AMAZING. Also I need to rave about the on site surgery center where the surgery was performed. I was blessed with amazing nurses who know Dr. Zewert and everything he requires for recovery so we were all aligned and synced. Dr. Zewert is very particular about every little detail and there is a reason to follow his orders. He knows what he is talking. The OR nurses Erica and Jennifer are the best in what they do. One other thing his anesthesiologist Dr R (I can't remember his name)has been with him for years so that is reassuring , he made me feel relaxed and explained how anesthesia works. They truly care. I have no regrets because I chose well. read more

When I first walked into Dr Zewert's office I could see how clean and organized it was. Dr Zewert was absolutely terrific, knowledgeable, informative, meticulous and listened to my concerns. He is very compassionate which helped tremendously when I felt nervous. He took his time and explained the procedure and the after care. His staff is top notch you could not ask for a better team. They made you feel very comfortable and you knew you were in good hands. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr Zewert he is the Dr to go to you will be very happy you did. read more

Doctor Zewert is absolutely phenomenal. Always on point he starts a consultation working with patients to determine what they would like to have done to scheduling and making them comfortable in the operating waiting area all the way through surgery and into recovery along with the follow up doctor and his staff are top notch. I can't Give a high enough recommendation for anybody who wants to do any type of body modification cosmetic surgery or help rectify is shoes and trouble areas go for it read more

Staff very friendly and courteous. Dr. Zewert comes highly recommended and is very qualified. I unfortunately didn't explain specifically what my expectations were for getting lift and augmentation. I assumed I would be more self confident after these procedures but I'm not. I can have another surgery but at another cost. read more

Dr. Zewert and his entire team are superb! Dr. Zewert is a genius. I went in wanting implants and thinking about a tummy tuck. When I saw the price of the mommy makeover it was completely reasonable and doable so I went for both. I got the mommy makeover on September 15. I really wish that I would have taken a picture of my face the first time I saw myself naked. That says it all! I can't believe how amazing my abdomen looks! I came out of the surgery looking like I had a mini sixpack! I love my new bosom and I feel like a totally new woman. I didn't look this good at 16 or 21! I am very impressed with their customer service, Andy is great in the office. The whole team seems like they really care. They call and check up on you after your procedures. Dr.Zewerts personality and his bedside manner are great. He is really funny and jokes with you to put you at ease but he also tells you the straight truth. You know how sometimes you ask your significant other, "hunny, do I look fat in this?" Dr.Zewert is the kind of guy that would tell you the truth. Well he wouldn't call you fat but he would definitely tell you what areas needed work. I am truly pleased. I look better then what I was expecting or hoping for. Also, my sister had pretty much the same surgery but in Beverly Hills and it cost three times as much. I got my mommy makeover for my 40th birthday present to myself and if I need or want anything else I will definitely be back. And I recommend him to everyone! five stars! read more

Before I found Dr. Zewert, I paid a $200 consultation fee, and met with a doctor in Salinas. The visit was matter of fact, and not personal, at all. With a potential large financial investment, I wanted more. I decided to forfeit the $200 and conduct more research. I was excited to discover Dr. Zewert. I scheduled a consultation and was immediately encouraged. From the beginning, I received information and care that spoke of a group of professionals who truly care. Dr. Zewert is patient, kind, and understanding. I am so thankful I found this amazing doctor. Thankful I located a physician with his level of knowledge, skill, and experience. Dr. Zewert is a wonderful person; pleasant, optimistic, and encouraging. He is also and educator, making sure you fully understand even the smallest detail of what's to come. He is a life-changer. So happy with the results! Highly recommended! read more

Dr. Zewert is amazing. I would like to explain what I was up against when I found Dr. Zewert.I was a professional Dancer in the 1980s and had breast implants that had gotten very hard over the 25 years I had them. I saw Doctor and he explained in detail what we would do. I recovered quit nicely I must add. Ladies I am a 56 year old woman. I love my body today. Their is nothing to worry about. You are in good hands with Doctor Zewert. I will be having a mini face lift and Chemical peel in March 2019. I have a very trusting relationship with Dr Zerwet. I would refer anyone who is looking for successful results. Thanks again Dr. Zewert and Staff!! read more

I want to take the time to thank Dr. Zewert and his wonderful team. I am just a few days shy of calling it my one-year anniversary from having my breast augmentation. This metamorphosis has been such a beautiful experience. A few personal notes: * I started at a very small A cup and I am now a 32 D. Silicon was recommended for me. * Paying for the procedure: With the help of Dr. Zewert's Patient Care Coordinator, we discussed payment options. I was approved by CareCredit and I pay monthly at a very reasonable rate. * Dr. Zewert put me at ease before my surgery. I was comfortable and I was out before I knew it! * After surgery I was a bit sore, but the soreness felt like recovering from a chest work-out: tender but not a terrible debilitating pain. * I was able to go back to work after a week. * Now that it has been a year, my scars are very faint and my chest feels more and more natural as the months continue to go by. From my first consultation to my post-op, I never felt like something was wrong with me; Dr. Zewert never gave the inclination that his job was to make me "better", but rather how can we work together to improve my own self-image. I felt that my body was limiting me in significant ways. I was tired of shying away from certain clothing; I could not dress the way I wanted to due to my small chest size. I would have to go for the more youthful dresses and tops--this was limiting me and projecting an age and style that wasn't me. Moreover, my fitness was also affected: I wasn't motivated to go to the gym. The more I worked out, the more mass I lost in my chest area. The more I worked on my chest area, the squarer and masculine I looked. I felt self-conscious wearing a sports bra, so I opted being uncomfortable to mask (not solve) the issue. Not only was I uncomfortable, but I felt silly and angry at myself; this kind of gloom was the catalyst to my transformation. These were just some examples that I shared with Dr. Zewert and, from my perspective, he didn't seem phased by it. A lot of people have these insecurities in some way, shape, or form. As a woman, I know our bodies take on so many changes naturally and chemically-- from the changes that come from childbearing to taking hormonal pills, like birth control. Dr. Zewert and his team exuded this advocation for women to have full control of their bodies. I knew this was the right place for me immediately. Conclusively, I finally did my research. I asked myself the tough questions like: Am I superficial? Will my co-workers notice? Will my mother, friends, and family be disappointed in me? No, to all of the above. I am happier and healthier than I have ever been, and those who know me can see that radiating out of me. My mother, being "traditional", accompanied me to my pre-op / post-op appointments, became my caretaker after surgery, and has been so supportive about the mere notion that, as a woman, we often don't do the things we want because we are afraid of what others think. Her only request was that I do this for me and no one else. Dr. Zewert made sure of that during my first consultation. I felt empowered and safe in the hands of Dr. Zewert. I hope anyone searching for their own personal metamorphosis, begin by starting the conversation of "change" with Dr. Zewert. read more

I had been considering plastic surgery for quite sometime and had a few consultations with other physicians over an 8 year period. I revisited the topic after seeing Dr. Zewert's local commercial regarding surgery options and patient testimonials. I made a decision to reach out to the staff via their website. I was contacted by the office's staff to make a consultation appt. After meeting the front and back office staff, his medical assistants and Dr. Z himself I knew that I had waited these years for good reason. I had the opportunity to be treated by an amazing surgeon, staff, and facility. Dr. Zewert has an in house surgical facility, Las Ventanas, that is adjacent to his practice office. The surgery performed was an abdominoplasty and breast augmentation (Mommy Makeover). Day of surgery I had a bit of a wait as Dr Z. is the emergency physician for hand injuries in the central coast, and had to surgically treat a traumatic hand injury from a work related accident. I did not mind the wait as I knew every minute was worth it to have him as my surgeon. Last thing I remember before my surgery was talking with the anesthesiologist and three nurses. I was out like a light clearly comfortable the whole time and woke with some pain that was managed appropriately. My body is in the early stages of healing (day 4) but I am so happy with my results so far. I will update as the progression of my healing continues. Thank you Dr Z. and all staff. read more

My experience with Dr. Zewert has been nothing short of amazing. Before setting my surgery date, he was extremely thorough and comforting in answering any questions I had. His only priority has truly been my happiness. Through every appointment, he gave me his undivided attention making sure all my nerves were at ease. In addition to his wonderful bedside manner, he is an extremely skilled surgeon. I couldn't be happier with my end results and would suggest his services to anyone! read more

I went in for a tummy tuck consultation. From start to finish I had an A+ experience. They were all professional, knowledgeable, and helpful with my decision. They answered all my questions and I knew the cost up front. Dr. Zewert did mention that there could be a risk that I may have a hernia. I asked to schedule my surgery for a specific day and it was far enough in advance to accommodate that for me. Dr. Zewert was very informative from start to finish. I was aware of everything that could happen. While in surgery Dr. Zewert did find a hernia and removed it for me. I was so thankful after 18yrs of not knowing it was growing. It's been 7 months since my surgery and I couldn't be so happy and thankful of my decision to go forward with it. I never felt alone he was always there to answer any question or concerns I had! I followed all instructions on what to do and not do. I healed well. I would 100% recommend Dr. Zewert if you are considering any major procedure. You will be in good hands by a gentle, intelligent, caring Person. read more

I cannot recommend Dr Z enough! He is meticulous and HONEST! His staff is incredible - I felt at ease the entire time. I will not be visiting another cosmetic doc on the peninsula - no need! read more

Dr. Z is by far the best. I'm so pleased with his work and everything leading up to the procedure. His staff is filled with smart, caring individuals that make all the difference. read more

If you're going to have facial plastic surgery, look for an expert that specializes in that field, not a general plastic surgeon. Dr. Zewert seemed confident in performing a rhinoplasty. However, it wasn't until after surgery at follow-up appointments that he admitted that the procedure he attempted to perform was beyond his level of ability and expertise. He failed to improve any of the problem areas we discussed, and was overly aggressive in his approach, leaving me with an unnatural looking nose that is too small for my face. I don't recognize myself and can't believe I used to be self-conscious of my nose before. He offered to attempt to fix his most obvious mistake, but I am speaking with a revision rhinoplasty expert. I consider this to be one of my biggest regrets. Why didn't Dr. Zewert admit this procedure was too complicated for him and suggest I see a rhinoplasty expert? The answer: Money. read more

I had a very positive experience with Dr Zewert and my breast augmentation. I saw a different surgeon prior who was just trying to sell me on more expensive options and I'm so glad I went to him for a second opinion. He assured me that a lift wasn't necessary and was very helpful in determining the perfect size that would achieve the natural look I was wanting. After 2 kids I feel like I have my body back and very happy with the results. I even went to Esalen and didn't feel self conscious whatsoever because of the natural look. I would recommend Dr. Zewert and his staff to any other woman seeking a skilled surgeon for a breast augmentation. read more

Dr. Zewert is honest, caring, educated, and an artist. If I ever need surgery again, I would surely schedule with Dr. Zewert.

Dr. Zewert is a true professional. He saved my son's hand that was mangled in a motorcycle accident many years ago. Recently, he did surgery on my hand and all went well. He is knowledgeable, skilled, and will take time to answer any and all questions. I wish more doctors were like Dr. Zewert. read more

My recovery was very easy. I had practically no pain! The staff was very helpful, they really made the experience great. I would definitely recommend Dr Zewert for any plastic surgery. read more

Dr. Zewert and his team are amazing!! I was apprehensive to have my procedure done at first, but after meeting with Dr. Zewert, who is so knowledgeable, experienced, kind and honest...I felt very confident in my decision to proceed. That, combined with such a sincerely compassionate staff, sealed the deal! Everything was seamless and comfortable, and I couldn't be happier with the results. It has been life changing. I would highly recommend Dr. Zewert! read more

I had an amazing breast augmentation experience with Dr. Zewert and his staff. It started with a phone call to set up my consultation. I spoke with Phyllis, who helped me with all of the information I needed about the process. She was very informative and professional. I could tell after speaking with her that my experience was going to be a great one. I came in for my consultation about two weeks later. This is when I met Dr. Zewert. We went over my specific situation, and spoke with each other for around an hour. I described the look I was trying to achieve and he told me what he thought would work for me. We agreed to a decision on size, type of implant and type of incision. A couple of weeks later, I came in for my pre-op appointment. I was able to meet with Dr. Zewert again. We went over more information, read through paper work and signed documents. Two weeks later was surgery day. I was so nervous the day of surgery, but as soon as I entered the surgery center my anxiety was relieved. I used Las Ventanas Surgery Center located in Salinas. His surgical staff was amazing at making me feel very comfortable and welcomed. Next thing I know, surgery is over and I went home. I felt great from the moment I woke out of anastesia and I continued to feel good during the days following my surgery. I had a few follow up appointments that all went very well. At about 2 weeks post op, I got a knock on my door at home. It was a beautiful Swenson and Silacci arrangement from Dr. Zewert and his staff. That arrangement made me so happy! It was such a nice touch. Now here I am, almost 4 weeks after surgery. Feeling good and I'm very happy with my results. Couldn't have asked for a better experience from start to finish. I have been recommending Dr. Zewert to everyone I know. read more

Dr. Zewert and his staff are all absolutely wonderful. From the consultation all the way through my post-op care, I felt like a priority. The procedures went smoothly and, as described, there were never any surprises. I am beyond thrilled with the results and highly recommend Dr. Zewert to whomever is considering any type of procedure. He and his staff are the best in their field. read more

Dr. Zewert was a true blessing to me!!! After waiting 22 years after my two kids were born, I finally got up the courage to have a tummy tuck. From my initial consult to my after surgery follow-up, Dr. Zewert and his staff have been extraordinary!!! His staff is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and professional!!! Of course, I was nervous at first, but after getting to know the office staff and Dr. Zewert, all my nervous feelings went away. I felt very comfortable knowing that I was in Dr. Zewerts hands. My husband even commented on how much he was thankful for Dr. Zewert and his staff and how good they took care of me. My only regret, as his video says, is that I waited this long to do it!!! I would highly, highly, recommend Dr. Zewert and his amazing team!!! read more

Way too expensive!!! I cut my finger with a box cutter and the hospital er told me to use him for my follow up visits. When I made my appointment I asked if they accepted the insurance I have. They said yes so I figured it would be mostly covered. Wrong! After seeing him 4 times over the course of 6 weeks, I started receiving the ridiculous bills. My visits consisted of an awkward consultation with a very new medical assistant and a quick unrolling of the tape on my finger. Then the dr would come in for like 2 minutes to see my healing progress and send me on my way. No surgery. No nothing. First bill $361, insurance covers $75. Second visit $282 insurance covers $75. Third visit $186, no insurance adjustment indicated on the bill. Haven't received the last one yet. I called his billing office a couple weeks ago to talk about some sort of discount or payment plan since I'm a full time student working part time and barely make enough to even live off of. She said she'd call back. Never did. I understand medical school is expensive, I'm currently studying to be a dietitian. But $360 for a 5 minute appointment is bullshit. I will not be paying these bills anytime soon because I'm not rich. I'm sure most of his patients fall into a different state of wealth since he's a plastic surgeon but I would never recommend this office to anyone. read more

I fell and broke my nose. When it healed it just didn't look or feel the same- I had trouble breathing and felt very self conscious. I saw a commercial for Dr Zewart on TV & called and talked to Phyllis about what her recommendation was. She told me to wait a month and let it heal, and then come in for a consultation about reconstructing my nose. Dr Thomas Zewart was very professional & very thorough. His entire staff made me feel comfortable , everyone was so nice. After discussing the details with my family my father decided to let me get my nose fixed. I've previously had a breast augmentation so I knew what to expect at the surgery center. Again, nothing but professionalism & genuine concern for me as a patient. My nose turned out amazing, very natural looking (in my opinion)- exactly what I described. If I'm ever in need of cosmetic or reconstructive surgery I will return to Dr Zewarts office. He really puts everything into his business and the results & treatment say everything. Thank you so much! read more

Whether you have had experience with plastic surgery or are a nervous novice, talk with someone who is more interested in the patient than themselves. As a medical professional, I thought I knew it all. Not only was I thrilled with Dr. Zewert's expertise, I was comforted by his deep understanding and concern. Also hats off to his wonderful staff and everyone at the surgery center. So do yourself a favor-go with the Best. read more

When I began considering plastic surgery (breast augmentation), my initial concern was that my frame was so petite that an implant wouldn't set correctly, and would result in me feeling even more insecure. I was 22 years old at the time, and had no children, so my skin wasn't prepared to stretch. Despite my concerns, I went in for a consultation to hopefully diminish my doubts and have my questions answered. From the moment I checked in with the front desk, I was so welcomed, and I felt like they really wanted to know ME. Everyone was so personal and friendly, and I couldn't wait to meet Dr. Zewert! When it came time to ask my questions and bring up my concerns, Dr. Zewert assured me that even with a petite frame an implant can be inserted beautifully. I learned that implants come in several sizes of volume, so I tried on the three sizes that he recommended. Out of the 3, I was most satisfied with the middle size. I could have gone up a size, but I felt that was too much for my active and tenacious lifestyle. Dr. Zewert was so easy to talk to, and makes you feel so comfortable with his procedure. I decided to go ahead and schedule my surgery date. Here I am, 1 year later, and at the final follow up. Dr. Zewert opened the appointment asking about my work! He actually remembered what I did, and where we left off the last time we spoke. Not only were all of my concerns and doubts explained away, I couldn't be happier with the size, shape, and settling of my breasts today. I went from a 32B (barely) to a 32 DD (Victoria's Secret size). My breasts do not interfere with my lifestyle, as I have continued to teach dance classes, endure 40 mile backpacking trips, practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and various water sports. Not only do I recommend Dr. Zewert to anyone considering any plastic surgery, I cannot stress enough how well he does his job, and the magic he makes happen in the OR and in his office. read more

I did an exorbitant amount of research before seeing Dr.Zewert and I am so pleased I did. He is very professional and his staff is great. They are very good at making you feel comfortable and at ease. I went in for a mini breast lift and implants and could not be more pleased! The pain after surgery was minimal and the results are perfect, I literally could not have asked for a better surgeon. He is extremely knowledgeable but down to earth and willing to answer any questions you may have. Even when Dr.Zewerts office is busy he never seemed rushed during any of our appointments and took the time to ensure I was pleased and had no further questions. read more

Dr. Zewert and his staff made my hair restoration so easy and stress free. I would travel to have them do it again, if I ever need it. My hair looks great and no one knows I even had any work done! Thanks read more

Dr. Z and his staff are amazing. From my first consultation to my surgery I felt completely comfortable and informed. His staff is great. Very informative and answered any and all questions I had. They were there whenever I had questions or anxiety about the procedure. The surgery center is very nice and my pre/post op nurse was such a sweetheart. Made my procedure so much more comfortable. I'm highly impressed with Dr Z's work and attention to detail. I highly recommend him for anyone wanting a breast aug! Thank you so much to Dr. Z and all his medical assistants!! read more

Several people where I work have had some "work done" as we've varyingly aged, had children or just "yielded to gravity' thru the years. I selected Dr Zewert based on a co-worker's satisfaction with him. I did not look into or "comparison shop" with any other physician based on my co-worker's outstanding results and experience in total. I went into the process fairly uninformed (aka naive) but was immediately assured I had made "the right choice" from my very first phone call...Dr Zewert's office staff made me feel like I was the only patient in the office and have treated me like I'm someone super famous every single visit. Maria, Phyllis, Maribel, Marisol and any others I fail to mention have been just wonderful! Caring and attentive, knowledgeable and generous with whatever I needed, supply-wise. I have been treated very well and feel an office staff reflects upon their association with their physician leader. When I first met Dr Zewert I didn't know his full credentials but was instantly assured he would do an outstanding job and I was with "the right guy". Then I read on an office wall he's been thru Harvard and Yale, but treats everyone with respect and compassion immediately. He took time to be sure it was the right time for me, that he could assure me best results because I'm a little on the high end of "older patient"..he obviously wasn't just taking everyone and anyone who inquired about a procedure and takes pride on pre-screening so results are good and patient is satisfied..in other words, he cares about his patients, he cares about his work. I have had numerous re-check visits with a frequency that impresses everyone I know..Again I take that as a sign of Dr Zewert's dedication to his patients and his work, wanting the best results for his patients. He's meticulous in his work, completely professional mixed in with the right amount of "personal". I know he's a busy guy but he's always taken the time I needed to answer any and all questions, treating my visit like I was the only one on his schedule. His work habits are of the highest caliber and he's uncommonly empathetic for a surgeon, caring about causing ANY discomfort and taking everything slow as the recovery part unfolds. I am relatively early in my recovery still but everything he's said has been 100% correct and I KNOW I made the right choice just by watching him work, how he treats his patients, how his office staff respond to him and how he is willing to teach his patients what is needed for us to do our part to make his perfect work stay perfect. It was not a sure thing he would accept my case, he was very direct and honest in his pre-op consultation to let me know what he needed from me in order to feel this was the right time to undertake the procedure. I feel very fortunate that Dr Zewert accepted my case, know there are likely tons of choices but will ALWAYS recommend him if ever asked in the future. read more
