I highly recommend Dr. Weinstein. Throughout the procedure I had, his expertise was evident and his follow up was caring and diligent. I have now healed in a week, had the sutures removed and you can barely tell anything happened. If you are looking for a surgeon with exceptional skill along with bedside manner, you are certainly in the right hands with Dr. Weinstein.

Dr. Weinstein is an incredibly gifted surgeon. Three weeks after my visit, I am marveling at my results! Just as we had discussed, he achieved a subtle, natural look. Fine lines have vanished and my face looks rejuvenated. His office staff is also lovely and the office aesthetic is inspiring. I highly recommend Dr. Weinstein for any cosmetic concerns.

Dr. Weinstein did an exceptional job with my upper eyelid surgery recently. He made me feel very comfortable and at ease before during and after the procedure. Amazing bedside manner!!!! His follow up is 5 star, would text me every day for the first week, then checked up on me monthly after that, called me the other day. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Weinstein a real professional, his work is excellent.

Dr. Andrew Weinstein is terrific plastic surgeon. Knowledgeable, sensitive, informative. I immediately felt at ease when he decided to do my husband’s rhinoplasty– and felt confident in receiving expert medical care. He was so caring even after the surgery and managed to follow up throughout the whole process. He’s very understanding and listens to your concerns. He takes time with his patients. We walked away, very impressed with the overall experience. HIGHLY recommend Dr. Andrew Weinstein to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon specialist.

I saw Dr. Weinstein for a botox consultation to address asymmetry that had resulted from previous botox injection at a different plastic surgery practice. Dr. Weinstein was extremely personable throughout the entire visit, and he clearly explained what he thought would be the best solution to resolve the asymmetry. He was also very thorough with his physical exam. Following my botox injection with Dr. Weinstein, my asymmetry has completely resolved. I have received botox from several different providers, but I will definitely be going to Dr. Weinstein exclusively for any injectables from now on after such a pleasant and professional experience! I am super lucky to have been referred to him for this consultation.
