I was looking for information on getting a tummy tuck. Dr. Mofid evaluated my situation, made a clear diagnosis, and quoted me a fair rate. I will be using him for my tummy tuck. He was very honest. He said he would need to lip my flanks and back roll, which I assumed he'd need to in order to get the results he wants (and I want). Also when he lipos, he uses a procedure of laying you on your tummy so he can suck out more fat versus other doctors who just roll you half way over. I can't wait to be able to wear clothing that I want to wear and to be able to exercise/run again comfortably.

This was my first experience with Dr. Mofid and I was very impressed with him and his staff. He made me feel very comfortable and at ease when I had to have my surgery. He answered all of my questions very throughly. He never rushed my visits, he always made me feel the utmost important and that he really cared for me and how I was feeling. Receiving compassion from a Dr. these days is not that common, so this was very important and impressive to me. The repair he did on my nose was amazing. Everyone was so impressed with the work Dr. Mofid did. He is truly wonderful. Also, the staff in his office are very professional and personal. They too make you feel very comfortable and at ease during the entire process. I would highly recommend Dr. Mofid for any plastic surgery

Dr. Mofid is a brilliant plastic surgeon. He did an amazing job with my Rhinoplasty, septoplasty and cheek implants. He and his staff were very proffessional and accomodating from scheduling to offering their honest oppionions about what type of surgery would make the most sense for me. I couldnt be happier with my results and I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a natural look of youth and beauty!!

Choosing Dr Mofid for my breast augmentation has been one of the best decisions of my life. Although I was always slender, I never truly felt truly confident, feminine or sexy especially in a bathing suit. I even slept in my Victoria Secret Bombshell bra that was more important to me then any pair of stilettos a girl could own. It has now been almost five years since my surgery and I still remember the ease and comfort that I felt during my initial consultation. He listened to my needs and concerns, explained the procedure and all the risks, and helped me find the perfect size. Dr Mofid was my first and only choice without a doubt.
The day of my surgery, I was more nervous then ever before, I almost ran out the door. I even told the nurse (I'm not sure i remember her name) that they could keep the money, I just wanted to leave. I've never had anything done before. As I was holding on to the door handle in my surgical cap and gown, planning my escape, both the nurse and the anesthesiologist suggested they show me the operating room and assured me that I could leave at any time. They were both so kind, compassionate and warm. The nurse held my hand and walked me over to the operating table and explained every single piece of equipment and what it did down to the leg massagers that would help keep my toes warm. Her genuine concern and care truly eased my every fear and I agreed to lay down on the table. Whatever the anesthesiologist gave me for my anxiety shortly after was by far the most relaxed I've ever felt to this day.
Flash forward a couple hours later I woke up with a feeling of a small elephant sitting on my chest. I was never in much discomfort or pain. I had the surgery done of Friday and Dr Mofid made a house call on Sunday to help me with the bandages/stitches (not sure as it's been too long to remember) as I had a very hectic and difficult schedule and wasn't able to come in to the office. The discomfort was minimal and I only took the pain meds the first two days. I went back to work on Monday and the next weekend I went on a girls trip to Vegas to celebrate my newly renovated chest.
Even though they say that initially the implants are high and it takes time for them to drop, I think mine settled in two weeks after. As my scars healed (I had the implants placed under the nipple) they became less and less visible and now look like tiny thin lines you'd expect from a paper cut. They look and feel natural, completely proportionate and most people do not believe me that I've had a boob job. I've even had my PCP tell me that it's one of the best breast augmentations she's ever seen - I live in Miami now and I'm sure she's seen quite a few.
In regards to follow up care and availability, my personal experience has been above any expectation. While visiting family in Kazakhstan (probably not the best place I'd want to find myself needing cosmetic medical attention) I noticed a nagging pain in one of my breasts that persisted for days. Concerned that a 24 hour flight and change in air pressure/latitude somehow could have damaged the implant, I contacted Dr Mofid to give me peace of mind. Even with a 12 hour time difference, we were able to connect within hours through FaceTime and I was reassured that everything was ok.
Dr Mofid provided me more then just a cosmetic procedure and a perfect set of boobs. I walked away with an experience that was filled with personalized care and attention. I would never dream of going anywhere else! Thank You for everything.

Dr. Mofid is the best plastic and reconstructive surgeon I know. He reconstructed my entire face, after a terrible car accident I was in 10 years ago that left me without my left eye, a shattered jaw, nose, and every bone in my face was broken. He is kind, humble, and his work exceeded my highest expectations of ever looking like myself again. He is an excellent surgeon, and he restored my quality of life 100%. He has done numerous and lengthy operations on me, and I would recommend him for any procedure, large or small, for surgery. He is the absolute best in his field.

Dr. Mofid has a far beyond perfect vision. He did not just improve my physical appearance, but my confidence. I feel absolutely amazing and beautiful. He really did everything and more to make me happy. Dr. Mofid has done my rhinoplasty and brazilian butt lift, and I would do it all over again with Dr. Mofid. I really trust him with my life. He is very realistic and tells you exactly what to expect (before, after and during surgery), and every time I come out I am more than pleased. He really makes you feel comfortable, and tells you exactly what is too much and what he recommends you to do. You are in good hands and cannot ask for more perfect than what Dr. Mofid's medical expertise, and you I highly recommend him. In conclusion, consider yourself lucky if you are reading this now because you just hit a jackpot by choosing the perfect doctor for any and all medical attention you wish to have done.

I am very happy with the cosmetic surgery I received from Dr. Mofid for a neck lift, face lift, lid lifts and facial injections. I chose his services based on internet research, reading online reviews and viewing "Before" and "After" pictures of his former patients. One neck lift photo in particular was very convincing. I hoped for the same result and, indeed, that is exactly what I received!
Prior to surgery, Dr. Mofid and Setara accurately explained surgical procedures. I was well informed about preparing for surgery, obtaining a medical clearance from my Primary Care Physician and what to expect during recovery. His pre-op nurse, Michelle, the anesthesiologist and surgery nurse treated me exceptionally well. The following day, Dr. Mofid removed my bandages. When I returned home, I was utterly amazed to see that my neck and face were tight. What a remarkable result in less than 24 hours! Dr. Mofid removed my stiches eleven days later. Nobody could tell I had undergone cosmetic surgery except that I looked healthier and happier!
The extraordinary result of my surgery was well worth the temporary discomfort I experienced to recover. The price of this surgery was fair and payment by credit card was easy. Dr. Mofid followed up by phone and post-op appointments. The location of his office is easy to access and private. I highly recommend Dr. Mofid and his professional staff for cosmetic surgery

We're not all born with perfect skin and body and those who are, well, you're the lucky few. For the rest of us, it means taking a step and doing something about it, because you'll live your life feeling self-conscious and insecure with yourself for the rest of your life and who needs that anyway?
Along the way, we get scars, cuts, weight gain, weight loss, etc. that can cause a lot of insecurities and the gym and/or scar medicines can only do so much. That's when you spend hours researching for a doctor to fix your insecurities. It's your body, so you can't just trust anyone with it. After convincing yourself time and time again to NOT do it, you wake up every morning feeling even worse about yourself, and that's when you GO BACK to researching doctors. This is what happened to me but I finally decided to do something about it.
I found Dr. Mofid 7 years ago and he and his staff are all amazing. Dr. Mofid has this calming presence about him that makes all of your anxiety and fears go away. He's very professional and anything he recommends are all professional opinions, he doesn't force you to do anything you're not comfortable with and he's not out for your money. You can tell he does this because he enjoys it and that's the kind of doctor you want.
Setara is very sweet and she's also a life saver, she gives me her honest opinion and I feel really comfortable with her.
7 years go by and I come back to this exact office and everyone remembers me, treats me like a new patient and takes great care of me. It also helps that the office is beautifully decorated and the staff are all so sweet.
Dr. Mofid still brings that calming presence about him and when he sees his results, he's thrilled about it and it shows that he's proud and confident with his work. I'd recommend him to anyone.

There can only be one word to describe Dr. Mark Mofid "GENIUS" he is an amazing, skilled plastic surgeon an artist in his field of work. Setara, his office manager is exceptional she was patient with me and help me understand my financing options and surgical procedure. Setara is my guardian angel, she genuinely cared about me, and Setara gave me the emotional support I so needed because I'm such a scary cat. She was there for me from consultation to recovery.
I had a full body lift and the surgery went smoothly with no complications when I opened my eyes Setara was at my bed side. I was very impressed, not only is Dr. Mark Mofid tops in his area of specialty, he has an awesome staff and a amazing little angel "Setara" working for him.
It's been approximately 2 weeks and I am healing quickly without any complications, I am so happy with the results I look fabulous! I am a 54 year old female, I've had 8 children and lost over 100 pounds my body was a mess, Dr. Mark Mofid turn the hands of time back, he made me brand new again, and I feel like am 21 years old again and I have renewed confidence in myself. I am definitely coming back to fix the top half I am planning to have a Bilateral Brachioplasty (Arm Lift) and Breast Augmentation with Lift. As soon as I complete my future procedures I will come back and let you know how they turned out.
If you are contemplating reconstructive/cosmetic surgery I highly recommend Dr. Mark Mofid. Dr. Mark Mofid is compassionate, caring and understands his patient's needs. Dr. Mark Mofid is the best in his field. Why settle for less when Dr. Mark Mofid is simply the best!!!

I couldn't be happier with Dr. Mofid and his staff!! From setting the initial appointment to the post-op follow up, they were there for me every step of the way.
Though Dr. Mofid is direct and to the point, you can be assured that his dedication to PERFECT results are his aim.
If you're considering plastic surgery to have a boost in self confidence, you owe it to yourself to work with Dr. Mofid.
I've already shared my experience with a friend who has the exact same experience!
I genuinly believe that the former poor reviews were taken to heart- as he was very warm with me and my friend. I'm also a firm believer that when you're kind...you receive kindness back
