Your trust is our top concern.
We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.
We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.
Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.
All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.
Very professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated physician. Great office staff; Denise is very welcoming. Have been coming for many years for facial and body procedures. Dr. Wald explains each procedure and answers all questions thoroughly. I always feel great and look better each time!

My experience with Dr. Wald was very educational. I thought I needed liposuction but found out that I a tummy tuck would benefit me even more. Dr. Wald showed me multiple before and after images to help illustrate what my results would look like. I scheduled my surgery and am super excited to see my results.

I've been going to Dr. Wald for over 20 years and he is simply the best! From the moment you walk in to the office and meet Dr. Wald you know you're in the right place and you're in the right hands with the best care! He's so reassuring, kind and brilliant! He patiently explains everything and you feel like you're always taken care of. He has amazing skills! He isn't your average plastic surgeon, he's the best of the best!

I couldn’t be happier with Dr. Wald; not only his work but his entire staff and the office environment, everything about my experience has been amazing! I had a complete mommy makeover and with the help of Dr. Wald and his staff I am confident that I made the right decisions for my body. Minimal scarring, swelling and draining - my breast scars are already barely visible and it’s not even been 3 months! There are not enough words to express how happy I am with the results of Dr. Wald’s work.

Dr. Wald is a wonderfully skilled and compassionate doctor. Faced with a double mastectomy he educated me about my options for reconstructive surgery and performed the three necessary procedures. Today, September 16, 2016, I had my four-year follow-up appointment with Dr. Wald and I am as pleased now as I was in 2012 with the results. He and his awesome staff continue to be genuinely concerned about my health and well-being. I would highly recommend Dr. Wald.
