Bernard S. Alpert, MD

I couldn't be happier with my experience and results at Dr. Alpert's office. He performed a bilateral upper Blepheroplasty, and I feel and look exactly as I'd hoped: a fresher version of myself. I had a lot of concerns about doing any kind of cosmetic procedure, and I took a long time to finally decide to go ahead with it. Throughout the process he and his team in the office were patient and informative, and he allayed any concerns I had. I'm so happy I found Dr. Alpert.

I was so impressed by how professional Dr. Alpert was and made me feel so comfortable with my first cosmetic surgery. I did not imagine how much younger I could look. I want to refer all my friends and family going forward.

Dr. Alpert is a gold standard doctor. He's wonderful at explaining procedures. If you need more than one consultation it's his pleasure to provide it. Dr. Alpert's after care is perfect. Never any delay in response and if you need him, you get him. Office staff the same. Can't do enough to help. I've had three procedures- two surgical - and am having another soon. And in addition to everything else, Dr. Alpert is a wonderful person.

I was recommended to Dr. Alpert from a friend who had a wonderful experience. He was very honest in our first meeting, and I appreciated that he didn't pressure me to get the surgery with any false hope. He was up front about what the downsides would be, and walked me through the entire procedure, pros and cons. I came back for a follow up visit, and he was generous with his time, answering all of my questions. I decided to go through with the surgery and am thrilled that I did. Dr. Alpert and his entire team were phenomenal. I received top notch care on the day of surgery from everyone involved. I had no pain afterwards, just mild discomfort. On the follow up visit, I was blown away with the results- they were better than I could have even imagined. Dr. Alpert does fantastic work. I am so impressed with the end result, and the lack of pain and scarring. He also has great bedside manner, and is warm, funny, and kind. I felt very comfortable during the entire experience, and am so happy with the outcome. I would certainly seek out his services in the future and recommend to anyone looking for a skilled surgeon.

Dr Alpert worked magic! I look so natural that no one suspects that I had cosmetic surgery. The only comment that I hear is " you never age!" His staff is amazingly friendly and very professional My experience has been outstanding.

I came to Dr. Alpert for a consultation about facial work, and he was very clear with his diagnosis and description of the recommended procedure. He has a very down to earth, easy going manner and he listens carefully to the patient. His entire office staff is friendly, welcoming , efficient and very professional.

Now to the good part. I had a face lift, upper and lover eyelids done two weeks ago, and I look like I did ten years ago. I went back to work 10 days after my surgery, and with come concealer under my eyes, no one could tell I had surgery. I am a hairdresser and over the last 35 years I have seen the results of face lift surgery on countless clients. I have seen some good results and I have seen some horrific results, and I have taken mental note of the results and who did the work. Dr. Alpert's patients always looked the best. Two weeks after surgery they all looked amazing. Never too pulled, never too bruised, never ever fake.

I am so happy I came to Dr. Alpert for my surgery. As a person in the beauty industry who stands in front of a mirror 10 hours a day, it is such a pleasure to look up and see me again. Really, Dr. Alpert gave me my life back!

So happy!

Dr. Alpert has an amazing energy level, and his staff reflects the same high level of service and energy. I have had many surgeries in my life (many non-optional ), and the results from my surgeries with Dr. Alpert have been superb. He is thoughtful and thorough in his approach and during follow-up appointments. I felt extremely confident under his care. I would highly recommend Dr. Alpert.

A friend had a face lift with Dr Alpert, she looks great. She knew Dr Alpert as her urologist husband went to medical school with Dr Alpert. He said Dr Alpert was the smartest student in the class and an incredibly skilled surgeon. I presumed I would go see 3 different surgeons before making a decision, but after meeting Dr Alpert and seeing some of his other before and after results, I knew he was the one. I didn't even bother to meet with another surgeon. Key for me was a natural look. I have my own business, have a number of clients for over 20 years, and didn't want to look "done" or unnatural. People now comment on how well I look, but no one can guess (although I am happy to tell anyone who asks.) Beyond the lower face lift and eye work I wondered about a brow lift. Dr Alpert explained why he didn't recommend that for me. I really appreciate that in a surgeon - he could have recommended more and charged more, but he told me honestly what would work best for me. My aesthetician, who works in a medical practice, also highly recommended Dr Alpert. She has a number of clients who have had work with him and she plans to one day use him too. While getting cleared for surgery my internist also mentioned that she thought Dr Alpert was a very good surgeon (she had another patient that week who was also getting cleared for surgery with Dr Alpert). Everyone in Dr Alpert's office is super nice. It's a highly professional, friendly place. HIGHLY recommend. You deserve it and you deserve a great surgeon like Dr Alpert.

Dr. Alpert is spectacular. He takes time to discuss each and every issue with his patients and is thoughtful and kind.

I was told by my dermatologist that Dr. Alpert was the best - and he is. He is so present whenever you are with him from the first consultation to the final appointment. Everyone in the hospital speaks so highly of him and you can see why - he treats every person with so much kindness and respect. My results were everything he told me to expect and everything I wanted. A huge improvement that was still completely natural. At home post surgery I felt like I needed a different pain medicine and he was completely available and took care immediately. And if all of that isn't enough - he has a dream office staff. Each one of them is kind, efficient, flexible and available whenever needed. Today is my final follow up appointment and I'm really going to miss this team. If you are considering surgery, I encourage you to consult with Dr. Alpert - once you meet him it will be an easy decision.

Dr. Alpert is a seasoned professional with decades of experience with face lifts. He is warm, friendly, with a positive outlook. He gave me confidence that I would get the best possible outcome for me.
Which I did.

His staff Rochelle, Catherine, Dana and Susan all handle my hand through the whole process, and were there for me at all times.

Very professional from start to end, including hospital stay, nursing staff and office personnel.

First doctor that ever listened to me and did exactly what I needed to have done, not what I thought needed to be done. He was right. My face lift result was perfection! Great staff too.

I could not have had a better experience..from the wonderful, caring office staff to Dr.Alpert's meticulous work. The prep for surgery and the follow up care (his nurse even visited my in the hospital),have been outstanding. I look so much better and the look is very natural..no one has been able to detect that I had the surgery. Dr. Alpert was by far the most highly recommended by my MD at U.C.S.F. and by other MD's in the bay area ( per Checkbook Bay Area who surveyed over 600 doctors). Highly recommended

I had a consult for a necklift and lower facelift with 3 doctors, I choose Dr. Alpert. I loved how genuine and honest he was in my consultation with him. I think for him "less is more". I had the surgery three and a half weeks ago and Dr. Alpert worked miracles. I think I look ten years younger. I never had any pain to speak of as he told me I wouldn't and that is always a concern to many. When I see friends they don't notice , they will just comment on my skin, smile or just say I look great. That is exactly what I wanted, natural and refreshed. I could go on and on about what a caring and talented physician Dr. Alpert is. I also want to say his entire staff is amazing and so helpful with questions, concerns and anything you might need. If you are looking at this review, then you are considering Dr. Alpert for some procedure, look no further, you have found the best!!!!

very positive, natural result

I would recommend Dr. Alpert to anyone wishing to improve their self-image! I have been bothered by my neck (waddle) for years! He explained everything from the beginning and delivered in the end!

Excellent service. Love my face lift! Highly recommend Dr. Alpert. He has done a tummy tuck, breast reduction and a lower face lift on me all done with excellent results!

They can't possibly get better than Dr. Alpert. I have always felt so safe in his care and he never promised anything he couldn't deliver on. It's an honor to know him and his entire staff. just couldn't be happier!

The incredible best doctor.
