Run! Don’t walk to see this kind and experienced surgeon. Dr. Lefkovits performed a few surgeries and one procedure on me this past year. I am really thrilled with the results. Everything Dr L told me before and after the surgeries basically came to fruition. One of the best thing about him is how you can speak freely and openly about your surgery. You can even gently push back about any issues, problems, inquires or doubts you may have. The biggest thing for me was getting a natural result. That is what he strives for consistently. I loved that we were on the same page almost all the time. Definitely ask a lot of questions even if you think they may be silly or unimportant. Dr. L is very receptive to it all. But I think I annoyed him a little with all my questions. Sometimes I played devil’s advocate with him. He was so good about it. It wasn’t his fault it was me and my silly ego and vanity getting a little out of hand. Will you have perfect results and look flawless after your surgery with him? Maybe but the biggest thing is the natural result that he will likely deliver. I love that saying, “the perfect is the enemy of the good.” I think he made me look better and now I feel a little better about myself. But I’m not perfect. I looked refreshed and a tad younger maybe. Dr L is very good and professional at what he does. His staff is terrific too. His wife, Sophie, is so sweet and assists in the surgeries as well. She’s very reassuring and a nice calming presence. His office assistant, Pearl, is a doll. She will guide you through all the logistics: clearance forms; prescriptions; and billing. And I can’t forget the spectacular anesthesiologists. They were both very warm and caring. Like I told them: you are the true lifeguards. No disrespect to beach lifeguards at all lol! Maybe not better but different. And of course so important for any GA surgery you may have. Also Dr Lefkovits has reasonable rates and will work with you with any pay-over-time options if you need it (I did lol). He’s just a really good, quality person who wants the very best for his patients. He uses the latest techniques. His suture work is wonderful. My surgical wounds are healing so fast and are very discreet. So why not four stars you say? Well somebody told me years ago that there’s always room for improvement. And again nobody is perfect. I know I’m getting too cute by half here and being a bit of a wise guy. Rest assured though Dr Lefkovits will take care of you and deliver what he says he will. There are no surprises, tricks or shortcuts. He is a true mensch of a guy. It’s even a lot of fun talking to him about subjects unrelated to surgery. I have had some nice laughs and great conversations with everyone in his office. Thanks again Dr. L. Keep up the good work!
