So I get the pleasure of being the 100th review! :) After visiting Dr. Stern for about 5 years, I’m finally writing a review that’s long overdue.

I initially came to visit for a tattoo removal service, they had a promotion that was $2k for unlimited treatments, until it was gone. Every time I visited, the staff is incredibly attentive and friendly, even after five years.

Eventually their laser machine had malfunctioned and they decided to discontinue the service. Upon the breaking the news to me, they offered to make me whole by refunding me a substantial amount of what I paid anyway, and referred to me another practitioner with a same quality of laser to get the job done.

That was definitely a great demonstration of the practice’s integrity, so I deeply appreciated that.

During this time I also had a defect in on of the muscles of my eyelid. My right eye was noticeably droopier than my left, and it was really affecting my confidence.

I looked like O__o

From one of the staff, I learned that Dr. Stern actually has a specialty in ophthalmologic surgeries, so I was in luck. Long story short, my procedure was incredibly efficient, and the result is nothing short of amazing. I have a much more evenness to my eyes than I did even before the muscle failed.

On top of that, in my post surgery aftercare kit that I was sent home with, Dr. Stern cared to give me a copy of his book the Endorphin Conspiracy since we had mentioned it briefly during our consultation. It was extremely thoughtful and I appreciate the gesture.

Since then, I’ve been back many times to laser my eyelid scar and inquire regarding other procedures. During these times, my level of self confidence ebbed and flowed, as I’m sure it does with many people.

There have been a few times when I asked Dr. Stern, “Should I do a facelift in the future?I’m concerned about ___” etcetera, but in hindsight, I noticed that Dr. Stern never capitalized on my insecurities. Instead, he would offer the most conservative solution.

For example, my marionette lines had bothered me when I was first coming to his practice. Instead of endless filler that other wellness clinics have pushed on me, Dr. Stern advised that I used the minimum necessary dose of botox if it really did bother me.

And even when I came in for the consultation of my eye, instead of assuming, he would ask me “Tell me what you are seeing" to determine what I felt like I needed done.

Since time has passed, I’ve felt the need for less and am grateful that he never pushed anything on me.

With all that said, the level of expertise, quality of work, and attention to care in comparison to the cost is a phenomenal value. I’m a shy person, but definitely appreciate that all of the staff take the time to exchange pleasantries and know their clientele personally. This practice is an absolute gem and will be my first choice every time.
