More about Dr. Yael Halaas, MD, FACS
Have you ever wished that one of your best friends was a top cosmetic surgeon and would tell you everything you really want to know about cosmetic enhancements? Someone that knew you, would really listen to you & tell you the truth? I'll tell you a little secret... there is no reason why your doctor can't be interested in your life, remember the name of your significant other and help you weigh the real benefits and risks to fight the aging process gracefully. It is possible to find a successful doctor who graduated at the top of her medical school class and yet still spends time talking to her patients. Someone who knows we all have the same questions - which products are hype and which will make a difference in our appearance and, in the end, how to look our best. Well now you have that friend and physician in me. .

Really liked Dr. Halaas however both times I've gone the wait time has been over 2 hours. Beyond unacceptable and reason enough to find another doctor.

Doctor was good, and her recommendations have been helping. I had to wait for 45 minutes, but that seems to be somewhat normal in Manhattan. Would recommend.
