Dr Walden is an Artist
by cleo12 at Citysearch

I was impressed the 1st time I met with Dr Walden and her assistant Sarah. They were very professional and very honest about the procedure and my expectations. I knew I was in a good hands the day I sent an email and it got answered within minutes and left a message and they got back to me the same day. That showed me their outstanding level of care and diligence. Dr Walden and her stuff prepared me for the surgery and listened to my needs. Dr Walden has her procedures in a Hospital that provides great care,costumer service and makes you feel in great hands. My Breast Augmentation is a success. Not only it looks natural but also Dr Walden kept my natural shape. I felt no pain after the procedure because I was given the best care after my surgery and I was prescribed the appropriate medication. Her work is a work of genius who cares. Dr walden is an artist but what really differentiate her is the great patient care that she provides. I highly recommend her practice to anyone that might be in need of her services. I can never thank her enough for the amazing job she did.

This is a web review from a “more than happy” breast augmentation patient….

More than happy!
by gemi523 at Citysearch

I had considered breast augmentation since I was 16 and I finally went through with it 10 years later. When the time was right, I did tons of research on my own about breast augmentation and the risks. I did multiple searches on Plastic Surgeons in NYC. Dr. Walden was the first and ONLY consultation I went on and I immediately knew she was going to be my surgeon.

I am a Registered Nurse and felt extremely comfortable and welcomed inside of Dr. Waldens office. Everything was clean, sterile, and warm. Upon meeting Dr. Walden and her staff, they were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Walden reiterated everything that I had done my own research on.

Being from Los Angeles, I didnt want the “Hollywood platic job look” and when I told Dr. Walden, she knew exactly what I wanted. She even suggested I could go slightly larger than I had come into the office thinking. I trusted her judgement and I couldnt had asked for more beautiful breasts. No one knows they arent real but some will ask me only because they are so perfect for my size. She was very honest about what to expect after surgery.

One of my issues while consulting with Dr. Walden was scarring. I develop keloids. She explained to me that keloids may develop from bacteria entering wounds and not getting appropriate attention to lacerations. Dr. Walden made a small incision at my areola and the scars are not even visible! When it was time for my stitches to come out, I wasnt able to make my appointment. Dr. Walden was willing to come to my hospital to remove them because her office was nearby. Though I didnt want to inconvenience her.

Its been 1.5 years since my surgery and I am extremely satisfied.

I DO recommend Dr. Walden to any women I meet who wants plastic surgery. And if I considered more procedures for myself, I would call Dr. Walden right away.

Amazing & Highly Recommended

I am beyond ecstatic with my results!

For many years I had contemplated getting breast augmentation. I live in Manhattan; therefore, choosing a doctor in the city seemed like it would be a difficult task due to the vast amount of plastic surgeons that practice in the city. However, I knew Dr. Walden was the doctor for me the first time I came across her name in one of my “New Beauty” magazines. Instantly, I experienced a great gut feeling, which was later confirmed during my initial consultation.

Prior to this office visit, I had researched Dr. Walden’s website extensively and was extremely impressed with the amount of information provided on her site.

Additionally, I was equally impressed to discover the numerous media appearance she has made, expert opinion contributions featured in many well-known magazines and Dr. Walden’s dedication to her philanthropy work.

From the minute I walked into her office for my consultation to the minute I left the hospital after my surgery I knew I had selected the right doctor and practice.

Everyone involved helped to make my experience pleasant and full of reassurance. From Olivia’s (Dr. Walden’s front desk coordinator) friendly voice to Janie’s (Dr. Walden’s medical assistant) kind smile and Sarah’s (Dr. Walden’s RN) constant professionalism and willingness to always take the time to return my phone calls promptly and answer my numerous e-mails and questions. I could have not have asked for a better group of people to help me go through the process.

In addition, the wonderful staff at MEETH were equally as fabulous. They were so kind, very organized and made me feel 150% comfortable!

Dr. Walden is truly the best! In addition to my positive experience, throughout the process I am unbelievable happy with my results!!! Dr. Walden’s willingness to listen to my wants and advise me about my options are very much appreciated and her kindness, knowledge and talent are valued and respected!

I could not have asked for a better doctor, experience and final results. I would recommend Dr. Walden and her staff to anyone any day!

* Pros: Excellent Doctor, Wonderful Staff, Amazing Results
* Cons: None!

Take a look at this online posting from a happy breast reduction patient!!

Love my breast reduction!!
by CKP at Citysearch

I am in 100% agreement with all of the reviews before mine!

I am a 40 year old woman who has been researching breast reduction for the past 15 years. I had been a comfortable C cup during my teens and college years but began growing despite maintaining my same weight and after the birth of my daughter I was up to a 32DDD. After a year of breast feeding and subsequent weening I expected my chest to become smaller but this never happened, and the past 6 years have been a nightmare of hospital visits and medical therapy to control the back and neck pain I have had.

Once I knew I was done having children I immediately began making appts for consults with surgeons I had heard and read about for years. All were doctors who are said to be top breast surgeons in NYC and I was impressed with all of them during my mtgs, even seeing one twice for a 2nd consult before thinking I would choose him. At the end of the day though, something I couldn’t put my finger on held me back from committing to any of them and they had all emphasized the scarring I would have as a result of the traditional technique they were accustomed to performing. As a result, I decided to do some more research on a newer procedure that I had started reading about called the Lejour vertical reduction, which produces 50% less scarring. It’s a relatively newer procedure compared to the traditional anchor technique and therefore there are fewer surgeons who truly specialize in it. In doing my research and reading countless reviews of these surgeons, I noticed the same few names mentioned over and over as being the experts in this technique. Dr. Walden was consistently top of the list so I scheduled a consultation.

After a half hour with Dr. Walden I had no question in my mind she was the one for me and I called to schedule a surgery date the next morning. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! Like the other reviewers on here have said, everything about her - her staff, work environment, the hospital she operates in - is absolutely top-notch. From the respect they show for your time when you have appts and the non-hurried time they spend with you while there addressing your questions, to the competence and extraordinary surgical skills Dr. Walden has in spades - I never once felt anything other than excitement about having this procedure done with her.

I am now just over 3 weeks post-op and I couldn’t be happier with my results. My breasts are the ones my husband and I remember from college, only better. My recovery has been a breeze and they look absolutely beautiful (or as my husband says, “outrageously hot” and the incisions are as delicate and fine as they come.

Dr. Walden and her practice are a female patient’s dream come true and I will absolutely return to her again should the need or want for any other procedure ever arise! She’s the best of the best in my opinion!

* Pros: Outstanding surgeon & aesthetic results; great staff
* Cons: None

Today’s entry features a gentleman who underwent a Blepharoplasty….See, there’s even a place for the BOYS at Dr. Walden’s practice

My Eye surgery
by yul at Citysearch

I am a male in my 50s and I went to visit her after I reviewed her credentials and verified that she was board-certified. I was a little nervous on my first visit as there were only women in the office and visiting room. A year later I decided to have my eye surgery (blepharoplasty) done and returned for a second visit and the surgery was completed in April of 2009. Dr. Walden did an excellent job and I received good care at the hospital and the follow-up visits-nothing to be afraid of.

* Pros: Boy-glad that he did this
* Cons: 2 weeks away from work

Today we are featuring a review posted on the web after a rhinoplasty procedure.

VERY POSITIVE EXPERIENCE
by carrie717 at Citysearch

Dr Walden performed rhinoplasty for me in 2009. I was very nervous about the whole experience and had specific requests about how I wanted my new nose to look - not a typical skinny nose, just a smaller version of what I had. She and her staff were very professional and my new nose is absolutely perfect. I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m very happy and highly recommend.

* Pros: Clean, professional

For the 2nd year in a row Dr. Jennifer Walden and staff were awarded the prestigious “Patients’ Choice Award” in New York. To honor this award we decided to stroll down memory lane with some of the reviews our patients have posted online. Here goes!:

I had my surgery done by Dr. Walden a few months ago and have been really Happy with my results!

I was an A cup and now am a D cup I would recommend her to anyone interested in a procedure, she was very understanding and was very helpful with my decision I was a bit unsure of the size I wanted and she helped me decide especially for my body frame what size she would recommend, I left her office feeling very secure and didn’t worry about anything the day of the surgery I originally wanted a C cup but was worried that they would be small so right before I was transferred to the operating table I changed my mind and asked her for a size D! I’m sooo glad I did. My breasts are perfect and I feel and look amazing. Thank you Dr. Walden

* Pros: Will Love her right away

Be sure and watch VH1’s new special, Plastic Surgery Obsession, which will begin airing tonight at 10pm EST! This was a fun special to participate in… I enjoyed working with theVH1 team as they raised some insightful and timely questions on Hollywood’s incessant quest for beauty. Click here to get airtimes and read the following episode summary on the VH1 website:

Plastic surgery. Everyone’s doing it-and talking openly about it, too.

Cutting Edge: What are the some of the ever evolving industry’s newest procedures and secrets?
Younger Faces: The increase in teen plastic surgery: How young is too young?
The Dark Side: Body Dysmorphia, depression, and sometimes even death are just a few of the horrifying dangers involved in looking “amazing.”
Plastic Surgery Disasters: Some of Tinseltown’s most infamous cosmetic surgery calamities

Here is the second part of the Plastic Surgery Gone Awry segment, featuring Dr. Walden and a panel of experts on the “After the Show” Show (watch through the first few minutes to see the panel). Gretchen Carlson and Steve Doocy of Fox and Friends Morning Show ask the questions on their minds about the lack of regulation in the fields of surgery and plastic surgery, as patient safety is in question. The cases of non-medical grade silicone caulk being injected into the buttocks of 7 women in a Newark hotel by a charlatan claiming to be a plastic surgeon are discussed. Also, the case in Florida of a young woman who died after undergoing liposuction at a tanning salon after receiving local anesthetic injections and Propofol (the powerful intravenous anesthetic agent that killed Michael Jackson) is covered. Finding a plastic surgeon who has undergone proper training and credentialing is of utmost importance when selecting a provider, so find out why it is extremely prudent to find a board certified plastic surgeon
