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.

Expertise, Professionalism, RESULTS
Had an upper eyelid lift with Dr. Covici in 2024. I was impressed with the efficiency and professionalism of the office from the moment I walked in the door for the initial consult. I had several questions & concerns, and straight forward, professional answers (how, when, why) were given immediately and with confidence obviously gained from much experience and commitment to his craft. The Dr. has an excellent bedside manner and obviously cares about his patients and making sure you understand the process and expected results - and you are comfortable & happy with both. His staff is stellar in manner and efficiency - from appointments to procedure instructions, to medications, follow-up, and billing. Dr. Covici was recommended to me by a nurse in the field, and I am thrilled I looked into this office & took her advice! I have high medical standards and this office exceeded them on every level. I would not consider going anywhere else.

Upper Eyelid Lift - thrilling results – Nov 20, 2024

Thrilled with result
Saw Dr Covici following referral from eye doctor due to excess skin on lids impeding vision. From the start it was an exceptionally positive experience, to include time spent by doctor and staff answering my questions. Using patient portal was a breeze. Always taken on time for appointments. Cheers to Xinh and Katrina. So kind. Result is beyond my expectations. What a genuinely nice man and staff. They truly care.

I have been to Dr. Covici twice in the last three years for treatment of my eyelids for inflammation and scarring after having styes. The whole experience was great. From the ease of getting an appointment, the friendliness of all his staff and the professional, courteous and respectful treatment from Dr. Covici himself. He is kind, compassionate and understanding. He listens to his patients and allows you to ask as many questions as you need to. He gives you all the time you need to talk to him and then provides the treatment necessary. The whole process is so well coordinated. It is a blessing. If you need a plastic surgeon for Oculofacial or Reconstructive surgery your first and only call should be to Dr. Covici.

From the moment I met Dr. Covici, I just knew that I would be well cared for in his hands. His manner could calm the most terrified of patients. I still continue to receive his care.

Blepharoplasty Upper & lower eyes
I met with Dr. Covici back in December 2022 to talk with him about having surgery for the sagging pouches under my eyes, and my drooping upper eyelids. I always looked tired, and old. Although I still feel young at 63. After meeting with Dr. Covici I instantly knew that I wanted him to perform the surgery. He was very kind and reassuring. I felt comfortable with him right away. It's been 6 weeks since I had my surgery in Jan. 2023 and I am so pleased and extremely happy with the outcome! I would highly recommend Dr. Covici.

Outstanding care!
Dr Covici and his staff provided exceptional care to me before, during and after my surgery. They answered my questions thoroughly. I never felt rushed as we discussed the procedure and recovery. During the surgery they were clear about what was happening and attentive to my comfort and concerns. The post operative instructions were clear and detailed and helped me have an excellent recovery. Dr. Covici even called me later that evening after my surgery to check and see how I was doing and answer any questions. His calm demeanor, warm manner and professional expertise are a winning combination!

Prior to surgery, Dr. Covici said he would partner with me in the upcoming procedure. Behind this phrase was the presence of an extraordinary healer as well as skilled surgeon. Dr. Covici in my experience generally is the humanist physician we seek and are overjoyed to find. In all the categories listed, I enthusiastically say 5.0! My gratitude and admiration for him and his dedicated staff for which he is clearly the model are huge. Joel Upton

Outstanding Surgeon and Exceptional Staff
Had Ptosis and Blepharoplasty surgery. Every step was clearly explained (no false promises) and performed as discussed. Dr. Covici is a true genius with professional and caring staff especially Xinh (Sing), who is exceptional in every way! I was treated as if I was the only patient. This practice is about treating patients to the best care available. I would highly recommend Dr. Covici and his caring team!

I highly recommend Dr. Covici for any eye surgery
I had 2 procedures done by Dr. Covici at one visit. I had a Ptosis and eyelid repair and the results were EXCELLENT. My vision is now 100% and the eyelid repair was phenomenal, I look twenty years longer. I had a basal cell carcinoma removed from my left eye and it left a indentation to my eyelid. I had the droopy right eyelid so he did both eyes to make it match and like i said the results were phenomenal. Dr. Covici and his staff are very professional and wonderful. Thank you all.
