As a patient of Dr. Schwartz, I can say he’s a caring, patience & conscience Dr. He listens & cares about any concerns & is open to any questions you may have. I’m happy with the procedure Dr. Schwartz did. The staff are also very nice & make feel at home when I walk into their office. They welcome me with open arms & have the most friendliest smiling faces. If I ever decide to have cosmetic done, I will definitely return to Dr. Schwartz.

Having met a few reconstructive surgens, I found Dr.Michael Schwartz of Pasadena, to really listen, understand my request and he took all the time needed to be sure I understood. I had the utmost confidence in him, which I believe improves the whole experience,including the healing process. At first I didn't believe there would be basically no pain. That was one of my main concerns. The discomfort was so minimal that I only needed Tylenol. About 18 yrs ago I had the fat taken from my lower lid,by someone else and It was so painful that I said never again. This time I had my turkey neck, I'm very skinny, mid face lift and upper lids done 6 days ago. Oh, the brusisng was minumial, I feel great.I'll write back after I see the beautiful results. P.S. he teaches at USC. He's not new to the field, experience is priceless.

I am very impressed with Dr. Schwartz. He is caring, kind and answered all of my questions. I have been consulting with plastic surgeons for two years and finally found someone with an excellent bedside manner.

If you need any cosmetic surgery, this is the guy! Absolutely amazing! You will never have to worry about a botched job. Total peace of mind. Plus, staff are wonderful too! How can you do better than that?!P.S. I'm an RN, so as you can imagine, I would be very picky on who does surgery on me!
