See above. Not all surgeons are the same! Just because they're Plastic Surgeons, that doesn't mean that they all can acheive the same results. To acheive great plastic surgery results will require plastic surgeon's innate ability to see beauty. Some are artisits and some are mechanics, if you want an artist that is also very well trained, then Dr. S is your man!

Breast Implant Revision
I know Dr S has the reputation for being the face lift guru, but I think he is also the "go to guy" for breast augmentations. I will say his schedule was kind of booked when I had my surgery. I didn't have a wait for my consultation, but I did have to schedule a bit out for my surgery - so if you want to do this book your consultation ASAP.

My Rhinoplasty and Blepharoplasty is Money Well Spent - Scottsdale, AZ
Posted by richard49

Dr S is an excellent surgeon, but what I believe sets him apart from other plastic surgeons is his visualization skills (artistic), after listening to your request, he offers solutions which are logical and easy to understand... he and his staff made me feel very comfortable from the initial consultation right through post op... it was all very simple. I don't believe there are any doctor's that would have been able to address this request as successfully as Dr. S... the results are exceptional.

I normally do not take the time to compose a testimonial. As a CEO, I spend 12/14 hour days, 7 days a week managing my company; thus, time is a valuable commodity and I have to use it wisely. However, in this instance, I decided that my time would be well spent in apprizing people that are considering plastic surgery to consider an outstanding team of professionals lead by Dr. S Elective Surgery or not comes with risks; thus, it is imperative that you consider any procedure that you wish to undertake carefully. This is the reason that I decided to post this message, in order to provide the reader with a factual account of what my wife (Joyce) and I experienced when having surgery performed by Dr. S and the outstanding care we received from his team of professionals. It is serious business when selecting a surgeon, as there are a plethora of physicians to choose from; make the wrong choice and you can regret it for life. You wonder, how do I know if so and so is the right surgeon to perform my procedure or procedures (if you are having more than one). The doctor you choose may be proficient in one type of procedure, but not another; and if you are like Joyce and me, who had *multiple procedures completed; if possible, you would like to have the same surgeon at the same location performing all of them. You check with friends and family to find out if they have any recommendations; but, even if they do, how can you be certain that the surgeon that they recommend is capable of performing what you desire to have done. After all, what gives them the expertise to advise you? Therefore, you must make an intelligent decision by conducting your own research; even though, you take your friends/family recommendations into consideration. It’s your body, so don’t take any chances. *NOTE: I had an endoscopic browlift, facelift, blepharoplasties and a rhinoplasty. Joyce had a endoscopic browlift, upper and lower blepharoplasties, facelift, upper and lower lip lifts, and fat injections to the jawline with some perioral dermabrasion.

I highly recommend Dr. S for many reasons: He is very attentive to your needs. His staff is amazing, all very nice, proffesional, and geniune. Something very important about Dr. S is that, he is very down to earth and not arrogant. Like most plastic surgoens I have encountered.

He made me look beautiful. He is gifted. All surgeons can operate, but not all surgeons have the innate gift of the art of aesthetics. Dr. S possesses that gift so you can rest at ease, your results will be those desired...and more than your expectations. Mine were, and my life has been enhanced. I am a physician, and I cannot say enough about how I would only trust my face to Dr. S.

After the procedure was completed Dr. S has had me come into the office regularly. He and his staff are so excellent. They are always very helpful, friendly, and professional. I never felt awkward discussing the different things I wanted to have done or questions I had after the Hi Def. It has been 3 months since I had the Vaser Hi Def procedure done and everyday I’m happy that I did it.

Dr S is the leader in his field. He is experienced, knowledgeable and genuinely a caring surgeon. He was not only able to recognize the issues that were causing my dissatisfaction with my previous facelift surgery, he was able to repair the damage and deliver excellent results. Dr S is definitely the only plastic surgeon to consult with if you you are considering a facelift. His entire staff is warm, friendly and professional. Money and time well spent without a doubt.

Outstanding - Scottsdale, AZ
Posted by Lizlynn
Outstanding results! I heard about Dr. Daniel Shapiro from other women I know who have had surgery with him. My hope was that he could give me the same natural results as my friends. Dr. Daniel Shapiro did just that and more! He performed liposuction to various areas with a fat transfer to the face and buttocks. I am thrilled with the results because I have a curvy buttocks, flat stomach and best of all, a more youthful looking face. This was the best decision I have made for myself and the procedure money well spent. I did interview several surgeons, the reason I chose Dr. Shapiro, in addition to his amazing skill, was the way he and his staff made me feel. From the initial interview to the final post-op visit, they have been excited for me and extremely encouraging. Dr. Shapiro and his staff have been a pleasure to work with.

Amazing Work! A True Artist! - Phoenix, AZ
Posted by advit1969
I had been looking around and did research and also heard great reviews about Dr. Shapiro. I looked at before and after surgery pictures before seeing him. When I met him, I learned that they actually did Ethnic Rhinoplasty and I’d been hesitant to get this done because I didn’t want it to be completely different. I wanted to make sure that people could tell that I was still the same ethnicity and Dr. Shapiro agreed with that. When I met with Dr. Shapiro I immediately knew I made the right decision. Besides, he has great bedside manner and he is always available even if it's not during regular business hours.
I Look Really Good Now -Scottsdale, AZ
Posted by Beimere
I did a Google Search and read his reviews. I chose Dr. Shapiro due to his good reputation in Arizona. The consultation went really well. He was very nice. Everyone in the office was really nice. Everything went smoothly. Everyone took care of me really well. They made me feel like I didn't have to worry about anything. Everything came out well and I look really good now. My recovery went really well, after the Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty. I went home right after my surgery and in a few days and I was feeling much better. It didn't really hurt. Now, I can see alright and I don't even have to do anything, and it's only been three weeks. I would definitely say that they over exceed your expectations and the office is really nice.

He's amazing! He came highly recommended by other Doctors! Dr. Shapiro came highly recommended from several doctors in the area. I utilized his expertise before and I was pleased, so I felt like I wanted to come back. I’m overly impressed with what Dr. Shapiro was able to do. He’s straightforward and knows what works and what doesn’t. I felt like he really cared about what he was doing and the perfectionist in him really comes out. The surgery center is connected to his facility so it’s very convenient and kind of takes away the anxiety if you understand what you’re getting into. It was an easy procedure within the surgery center and everything looks very good.
If You're Thinking About It, Choose Dr. Shapiro! - Scottsdale, AZ
Posted by av8rlisa
He personally called to check up on me the day after surgery (Thanksgiving day.) His staff answered all my questions and helped me through the process. My incisions started to heal almost immediately. I interviewed 3 doctors about upper and lower eyelid surgery. I had a bad feeling about all 3 for various reasons - they couldn't tell me if I would have positive results, they didn't do a good job of explaining the procedure, they seemed most concerned about getting paid.....etc. I had just about given up on having the procedure done, but went to Dr. Shapiro for one last consult. i can't say enough about his manner, staff and professionalism. He was neither the cheapest nor the most expensive, but he is head and shoulders above the rest. I knew what would happen, what to expect (both good and bad) and what my results would most likely be. From before to after the surgery, I knew exactly what to expect and when. I felt confident that HE was confident about my results. It took about 6 weeks before i saw the results, and I wish I had the surgery done 15 years earlier. What minimal discomfort there was was well worth it. It has made a huge difference in my life and appearance. When, (yes, I mean when) I return for a face lift, I know I will receive the best care and competence around. Don't look anywhere else!!!
Perfectionist, Comforting, and Rest Assured - Scottsdale, AZ
Posted by samanthak2morgan
Dr. Shapiro was the last of 5 surgeons I consulted with in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area over a two year period of deciding when the right time would be for a mommy makeover. After spending only 10 minutes with his wonderful staff, I had the feeling this was my last stop! Meeting Dr. Shapiro was everything I knew it would be: comforting, like I was receiving the exact plan customized for ME. He is a perfectionist, and as a patient, that is a PRICELESS assurance:)
Never Went to Another Doctor After my Facelift - Scottsdale, AZ
Posted by villataetha
I feel great after having a facelift with Dr. Shapiro; it’s given me a really great attitude adjustment about myself. I guess you could say that I have a new beginning for my life at this point in time. It’s a very good, positive feeling. To me, Dr. Shapiro is a knight in shining armor. He is a magic man. I can’t say enough positive things on his behalf. He’s gentle and he was always right there answering my questions. I never went to another doctor for any opinion. I picked him; that’s how good I feel about him. And he did exactly what he said he would do for me.

I had a Facelift, Endoscopic Brow Lift, Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty, Fat Injections and Dermabrasion. Everybody loves the results. I’m happy with it and everyone tells me what a big difference it makes. It was such an easygoing process. You feel like you’re at home when you’re with everyone at Dr. Shapiro’s office…like they’ve known you for a long time. Dr. Shapiro was very thorough and he took an individual look at me, so I didn’t come out looking like everybody else does.
Dr Shapiro is a True Artist... - Scottsdale, AZ
Posted by artlady
I went for 12 consultations (two in NYC, two in PA and eight in AZ) before trusting my face to a surgeon. The moment I met Dr. Shapiro my search was over - we had an instant connection. He was extremely confident in his abilities and could 'see my vision' in addition to his own. I had a full face lift, upper and lower eyes & brow lift in addition to a mini tummy-tuck. All I can say is the results far surpassed anything I could have imagined and I am only three weeks post-op. Dr. Shapiro took a lot of time with me before and after surgery. His staff was extremely knowledgable and accommodating. The actual surgery center was amazing...a special thanks to Nurse Betty - I felt nurtured and cared for at the recovery center. If you have been searching for a PS, please consider Dr. Shapiro - He is a gifted and talented surgeon - a true artist. Thanks to all!
