Michelle Zweifler, MD

Dr. Zweifler is one of the best doctors I've ever had in (long!) life. She's not only caring and attentive, but a truly gifted surgeon. She did a breast reduction for me that was basically flawless - everything was perfectly balanced, the scars disappearing rapidly, great aftercare. She also pointed out that I had an ugly incisional hernia from a previous emergency surgery that needed repair. She recommended an excellent surgeon for the hernia and agreed to work with him. It was a complicated 5 hour surgery involving a lot abdominal work. But miraculously, the way Dr. Zweifler handled it, I went through the whole thing and ended up with an incision that looks like an invisible zipper it's so thin and perfect. She came to see me every day in the hospital (above and beyond) and provided great aftercare. I cannot recommend her more highly. You will be in excellent hands.

Dr. Z is a superb doctor with an excellent bedside manner, inordinate patience, and genuine expertise and knowledge. I came in with a growth on my forehead which she resected expertly and without too much pain (despite my whining). I am in the throes of its healing, but I have full confidence that once she removes the stitches, she will give me the post-operative care I need to have no scarring. She is terrific as are her office personnel, who are so friendly and fun and full of nice tips. She previously removed another growth and you can't even see the scar! She's absolutely ace.

From start to finish, my experience with Dr Z and her office has been absolutely perfect! I was welcomed at the door by Diane and Allison, who could not have been nicer and made me feel so comfortable. Dr Z was patient, thorough, and gave me all the time I needed for my initial consult. I left that day, knowing she was the right surgeon for me! Last week, I had my lower face lift and upper blepharoplasty. Even after just seven days, I am absolutely thrilled with the results so far. My pain has been very well managed by the prescribed medication, and Dr. Z went out of her way to check on me and make sure I was doing OK. Diane and Allison also checked on me and made me feel like a total VIP! I cannot recommend this office enough and I can’t wait to see my final results in the coming weeks and months!

My experience with Dr. Zweifler could not have been better. I went for a consultation for a breast reduction and at my first appointment, I immediately felt comfortable with Dr. Zweifler. All of my initial questions were answered thoroughly. Throughout the process of getting this procedure covered by insurance, Diane was extremely helpful and communicative. In the days leading up to my surgery, Dr. Zweifler was supportive and kept my nerves at ease. She listened to my concerns and made sure I would be happy with the results. Once I got home from surgery, she even called me to make sure I was doing okay. During my recovery when I had to go back for several follow ups, Alison at the front desk always made it easy for me. A year later, I could not be happier with the results. I no longer have back and neck pain and my confidence has increased tremendously. Thanks to Dr. Zweifler I look and feel amazing. Dr. Zweifler is extremely knowledgeable and caring. I highly recommend her for any cosmetic procedures.

I highly recommend Dr Zweifler she is a skilled surgeon as well as personable with an exceptional bedside manner. I had an in office blepharoplasty procedure, which the thought of it was unnerving. Dr Z put me at ease with her gentle manner and hands. I felt no pain, not even the numbing shots!
Post surgery Dr Z followed up with a call in the evening to check on me. She was also fast to return calls when I had questions.
I'm thrilled with my results, she shaved 10 years!
Lastly, I appreciate the post op visits where Dr Z tracks my healing and tweaks if necessary. She is a talented surgeon and a delight!

After deciding to get my surgery, I was overwhelmed with how to find and choose the right doctor to work with. The plastic surgery industry is filled with doctors who tell you exactly what you want to hear, show you the perfect pictures and charge 4x what they should be because of social media coverage that allows them to. It is definitely no small task to find the right doctor to work with. After doing a lot of research, getting referrals and meeting with a number of doctors, I met with Dr. Z, and knew right away that she would be great for my surgery. I couldn’t be more thrilled with my decision.

Unlike other surgeons who came across as more concerned with what they wanted to do, Dr. Z took the time to listen to me. She asked thoughtful questions to understand my vision for the surgery, ensuring we were on the same page before making any decisions. It wasn’t about her telling me what I should look like—it was about us working together to make sure I was comfortable with the plan and that my goals were the priority. Her approach is one of true collaboration, and it immediately made me feel at ease.



Dr. Z’s team is just as incredible. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a group of caring, compassionate professionals who were patient, attentive, and always available to answer questions. Whether it was pre-op or throughout the recovery process, I felt completely supported at every step. The entire team made sure I knew exactly what to expect, and they were there for me during every part of the journey, from surgery day through recovery and touch ups.



I am so happy with my results - and I am very committed to keeping them this way by taking care of myself. Dr. Z, Diane and Allison are fantastic women who I am so grateful to have worked with. I strongly recommend that anyone in the beginning stages of their search meet with the team to see what I mean.



I also have to say that I am not one to write reviews, and even without this Review 500 giveaway I would still want to share this experience!

One year post surgery and I have to say that I will miss visiting Dr Zweifler and her team! I had a breast reduction last year and I am I so thankful for Dr Zweifler and the care she gave me. I LOVE the results and my surgery has been truly life changing for me. And without her I don’t think I would feel this way. She really takes her time and care during her procedures and she explains everything to you. She also takes the time to get to know you. She listens to your concerns and helps you each step of the way. I was a more nervous healer than I thought I would be and with a breast reduction you see Dr Zweifler once a week for six weeks, there were several weeks where I saw her twice a week. I even saw her in between my 3 and 6 months because I was concerned about something. She has helped me feel more confident in my own body. I can now wear tops with built in bras! Never would I thought I could ever do that. I am so glad I chose her as my surgeon. If I ever need another procedure she will be the first doctor I call.

Where do I even begin?! Dr Michelle Zweifler completely changed my life and confidence and I cannot express my gratitude enough towards her and her amazing team.
I’ve had sagging breasts that were way too large for my body ever since I could remember. I looked so disproportionate and fixated on my breasts all the time, looking at them for hours wishing I could make them smaller. I’d go even through periods of depression because of them. Then my life changed and my wishes came true when I met this amazing woman! From the very first consultation with her to the appointments approaching my surgery, and to the post op appointments, she was so supportive and caring every step of the way.
My breasts are now quite literally the breasts of my dreams. I’ve always fascinated about how I wanted to look after surgery, and she delivered PERFECTLY on the results. My breasts are so much more beautiful and I’m constantly receiving compliments on them and how much better I look. The symmetry, the areola placement, the size is everything I could’ve wanted and more. I hesitated on getting this surgery for years because I was afraid of the scars, but she is such a master at her craft that I don’t even notice the scaring and I’m only 3 1/2 months post op.
I highly recommend her for any kind of plastic surgery! I promise she is the best of the best, I was even told that by one of the nurses on the day of my surgery.
Getting this surgery and choosing her as my surgeon has been one of the best decisions of my life and I’m not exaggerating when I say that. I stare at my breasts in awe at least 5 times a day now as opposed to staring at them in disgust before.
I love you Michelle! Thank you for changing my life and making me feel beautiful and confident again!

I have been morbidly obese for most of my adult life. Due to significant weight loss and aging, my face has been showing its tell-tale signs. I used to be so against (AND extremely nervous) of getting fillers because I was terrified of looking like the puppet "Madame" or Cruella De Ville" BUT I am so happy I did. She made me feel so comfortable and secure with her knowledge and expertise but most of all it was her approach. She hands you a mirror and asks, "what bothers you the most and what can I do to make you feel better about it?" I pointed out what I didn't like/what I wanted, and she proceeded to make my face look fabulous.(Personal favorites-Dysport and Restylane) Honestly, I feel, and from other's feedback, I look 35 and I'm 54 years old. She has made me feel confident and finally comfortable in my own skin. I feel amazing about myself every time I walk out of her office, and I will continue to see her FOREVERRRR!! I'm living my best life-free of judgment from myself.

First I would like to say how patient, and kind Dr. Michelle Zweifler is. I found her through ZocDoc and had a consultation back in 2022. She talked me through everything and made sure I had the tools to come back. Unfortunately I was not yet ready to go through the process. In 2023 I was finally ready and came back to Zweifler and she remembered me! This time I went through with the surgery. My biggest insecurity since I was a teenager was how heavy and big my breasts had gotten and they also caused me a lot of pain and back/neck issues. I spoke to Dr. Zweifler about my expectations and outcome that I wanted. I’m happy to say that now I’m almost 9 months post surgery and I am so happy with my new breasts. I feel so confident and happy with the way they look. Scars are hardly visible, recovery time was quick and her team made sure I had everything I needed to be able to confidently take care of my incisions. Super grateful to have had Dr Zweifler perform my surgery and I would do it all over again if I could!
