Great experience with Dr. Macdonald!

Really love Dr. Macdonald. Came to him after looking at a number of Rhinoplasty surgeons in San Francisco. We decided on both a Rhinoplasty and Kybella. Both turned out just as a wanted with minimal downtime, if any.

Highly recommend him to all looking for a trusted and experienced Doctor.

Best Surgeon In The Bay!

Before I got my septorhinoplasty I had very low self esteem. Dr. Macdonald fixed that! When I came in for my first consultation without even looking at the paper he knew exactly what I wanted to fix and how I wanted to fix it. Everyone in the office is so warm and welcoming too! I was very comfortable on the day of the surgery and was well informed on the aftercare! I feel like a new woman with my new nose! I would recommend Dr. Macdonald to anyone!

an over all wonderful experience

from my first visit and through the whole process of fixing my deviated septum Dr Macdonald was great through it all. My procedures were non cosmetic and strictly functional in nature and in completing my time with Dr Macdonald my quality of life was markedly improved.

Halo laser treatment

I had a Halo treatment July 2017. The results were great. Smooth skin, pores greatly reduced. Age spots reduced. Overall, a glow and youth to my skin. The results are visible-friends and family have commented on how well I look.
I had a second Halo March 2018 as a follow up and the great results are repeated. I can go out without makeup. The treatment also reduced my rosacea. Overall, I look younger, my skin is smooth and there are barely any lines, I am 60. I plan to do Halo again and again.

Best plastic surgeon in San Francisco Bay Area

I've been a patient of Dr. Macdonald's for many years. I have never given any review a five star but Dr. Macdonald and his team deserve a ten star. I've been having my lips done by Dr. Macdonald for many years along with other fillers and he has the eye for perfection. I feel beautiful after every visit.

Amazing Septo/rhinoplasty

I had a septoplasty and rhinoplasty in order to correct my breathing and take away a hump on my nose. I am amazed at the final product and so happy with my choice of surgeon. From months before the surgery, to the day of, to my post operative appointments, he has been so comforting and clear in his explanations of my surgery and recovery. There is nothing I would change about my surgery experience with Dr. Macdonald and I would recommend him to anyone looking to get a septoplasty or rhinoplasty.

Warm and Professional Experts

I had the best experience with Dr. Mcdonald and all on his staff. They are warm, gentile, and patient. They really listen and hear patients concerns about health, wellness and aesthetics. I felt so comfortable in all of my appointments, procedures and followups. They are flexible on communication via email, phone, or text which makes it way for busy working professionals to stay organized. I've had botox and liposuction with Dr. Mcdonald and highly recommend him and his team to all of my friends

12 years of amazing care!!!

I have been a patient of Dr. Macdonald for over twelve years. The non-invasive procedures I have received over the years have kept me feeling young and beautiful as I approach the big 50. I trust Dr. Macdonald's natural looking procedures, and aesthetics. I also enjoy his office staff's pleasant demeanor and professionalism.

Halo + BBL laser! Do it!! You won't be sorry!

I've tried many procedures and treatments for brown spots on my very fair face, chest, and arms (which was not inexpensive). The Halo/BBL treatment that Dr. Macdonald provided was fantastic, and my skin continues to get better every week! I really thought a dermatologist would give me the best result, but I was wrong. I am 100% thrilled with the results AND with the care and expertise of Dr. Macdonald and his whole team (thank you Lamai and Jodi). Very very happy!
