“The zen master of plastic surgery.”

Meet Dr. Shafaie
“We have benefited immensely from Dr. Shafaie's impeccable surgical skills, as we recently had to endure the aftermath of an unfortunate car accident. Not only was he manifestly apt in his effective application of the latest surgical techniques performed in a state of the art surgical facility, but also that his compassion, courtesy and empathy-ubiquitously emulated by his competent staff-puts any level of patient's or family's trepidation to utter ease. In an uncertain era of medical practice in the Nation, it is reassuring to receive all options rather succinctly, and to opt for the best avenue and the expenditures thereof well in advance of the actual day of surgery.”
