Provided by YP.comI am a 71 years old granny who has met a couple of the top Plastic Surgeons in New York City a decade or so ago.
Finding David Shafer, was like stumbling into a gold mine in my back yard.
He had been highly recommended by someone indirectly involved in Plastic Surgery. My first meeting with him was memorable. he payed total attention "to me" not to himself. I immediately liked him a lot. Having lost 52 Lbs within a year of that meeting, the bottom of my face had lose skin hanging all over my neck.
I went under the knife within that week. Three weeks later, I was filmed by a TV Program and I looked 20 years younger.
Since then, over a dozen of my friends, including some men, went to have surgery with David. Without exception, they were all extatic and so am I.

Provided by YP.comMy husband and I both are thrilled with our appearances after our recent face lifts. David Shafer is the new man in town to go to, that's for sure! My spouse is totally bald and few plastic surgeons would touch him, but this one did, and erased his sagging chin. We look naturally refreshed and know who we will seek again when the time comes for another "renovation."

Provided by YP.comThe only reason that I am writing this review is because now I am sold on plastic surgery. I have to admit I was not an advocate, but after years of dealing with a gut hanging over my jeans after having 5 children, I was sick and tired of it. I wanted my body back. I always felt like an attractive woman, but slowly with each pregnancy I gained 5 beautiful children and lost the feeling of beauty. I started talking about it with friends and after a lot of research I decided on the Dr. that trained at the Mayo Clinic. After meeting Dr. Shafer and having a tummy tuck and some liposuction on my hips/thighs, I am sold. I can't tell you how happy I am! After 12 years I can finally wear a bikini again (before I didn't even like to be seen in a one piece). I am so excited about it that my husband and I have booked our first trip together (without the kids) to Maui in February. I can't tell you how wonderful Dr. Shafer was, patient, caring and sensitive to my needs. I had a lot of concerns, especially with having kids at home, Dr Shafer was so easy to talk with and took the extra time I needed to fully explain the operation. He was honest and realistic about my recovery period and went the extra mile to make my experience outstanding. I am sold. If you are like me and unsure at first, just talk with Dr. Shafer, he is amazing, and an excellent surgeon. I am sure you will love him as much as I do, and my husband for that matter! I am a new woman!!!

Provided by YP.comBefore meeting Dr. Shafer, I had several appointments with other plastic surgeons. My very close friend recommended that I see Dr. Shafer. Since I knew my friend was very particular and a great RN, I went for the appointment. I brought my list of questions regarding my face lift. He answered each question in detail. His enthusiasm and passion made me feel so relaxed, yet eager to move on to the surgery. I am 59 years old and had my face lift. I was back to work in two weeks with a new refreshed look. I have received comments that I look well rested since my "two week vacation". I have four sisters that I love dearly. I would recommend each one of them to see Dr. Shafer. I must thank Dr. Shafer each day for the surgery and my friend for the best reference. Dr. Shafer is my hero.

Provided by YP.comI have had botox injections for over 3 years by several specialists. Fortunately, a friend reccommended Dr. Shafer. He is clearly the best of anyone I have used. I have had no bruising and outstanding results. He will be my botox guy for good.

Provided by YP.comDr. Shafer is a true gentleman and an exceptionally skilled surgeon. Generous with information,
knowledge and kindness, he knows his stuff but isn't stuffy or pretentious. I would (and have)
reccmmended him to several friends. He's a stand-up guy with great hands. And heart.

Provided by YP.comPlace all your hesitations aside; Dr.David Shafer is the most professional, thorough, competent and artistically skilled plastic surgeons that exists. He is truly an expert and displays superior attention to detail. And if that isn't enough, Dr. Shafer has utmost concern, understanding and compassion for all of his patients. I was one of those many
reluctant women, and am now ecstatic after my face lift. I fully recommend Dr D. Shafer if you are considering any
type of plastic surgery.

Provided by YP.comI was very skeptical to visit a plastic surgeon. However, Dr. Shafer made me feel at ease and totally comfortable about discussing my body. He was very friendly and took all the time I needed to explain the different options and procedures. As a result, I have received multiple botox treatments and abdominal lipo-suction. I could not be more happy with the results. I recommend Dr. Shafer to anyone who is considering plastic surgery.

Provided by YP.comI recently saw Dr. Shafer after being referred by several friends. I found his office to be unassuming and comfortable, with great skyline views. The office staff was friendly and accommodating. During the consultation, Dr. Shafer made me at ease and he did not seem rushed or distracted when talking with me. He reviewed all of the options and did not seem pushy in any way. I ended up having fat grafting, Botox and a facial peel and I am very happy with the results. I am planning on having other procedures in the near future. I highly recommend Dr. Shafer.
