Real Reviews from Real Patients
You're the best Dr. Lee! My surgeries were life changing and I could not have found a better surgeon!
This is the best place I have ever been to! I will come back again I highly recommend this place. Everyone is so helpful and sweet. Dr. Lee is so gentle and his work is flawless! He's a complete perfectionist. The staff is also the best like ever.
Dr. Lee was amazing. I am beyond satisfied with my results. He spent so much time with me in both my consultation and all my follow up appointments. This was my first surgery and so I was pretty nervous but he made me feel super comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. I would absolutely refer him to my closest friends and family. 10/10 he's amazing!!!
Totally worth the drive from Bakersfield to get the best care and treatment! I am extremely happy with my experience and results here!
I was sent to Feldmar Aesthetics by my primary care physician - and couldn't be happier with the choice. I had a severe second degree burn, and Doctor Lee's gentle yet meticulous work allowed me to avoid skin graft surgery. His professionalism, and that of the entire Feldmar staff, allowed me to recover far quicker than anyone familiar with my wound had predicted. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Excellent work, careful, fastidious, thoughtful with cheerful helpful staff. Not a factory... individual attention and treatment. This should be your go-to for cosmetic surgery and treatment.
Amazing customer service ~ and will be back and with smiles and many referrals! Great place! Highly recommended :)
Dr. Lee performed my surgery, and the results are absolutely amazing. The outcome looks completely natural, and I couldn't be happier. He is extremely caring, detail-oriented, and truly a perfectionist. There are no visible scars at all--it's incredible. I highly recommend Dr. Lee to anyone looking for a natural, refined result.
I had a good experience here. I definitely recommend this place for getting the results you want.
I highly recommend this place to anyone I care about. Dr. Feldmar and his staff have taken such good care me. Him and his staff have gone out of the way to take care of my every need.
The place is also gorgeous and so welcoming. Everyone there is so friendly and you can tell him and his staff really care about helping people. If you are looking to have plastic surgery or just some medical spa treatments look no further, this is the place.

I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the outstanding care I received at your office and surgery center. Your team's professionalism and compassion made a significant difference in my experience, and I felt genuinely supported throughout the entire process. Thank you for your exceptional service and dedication to patient care.
Dr. Feldmar did my surgery and I am very happy with him and my results. He did a great job on the sticking it is very smooth and straight. He is a very nice doctor and took good care of me post surgery. They let me come in weekly for red light therapy treatment to help me rebuild my collagen and speed up my recovery. The services at Feldmar Aesthetics are really great. Dr. Feldmar and his staff are a great team and I would highly recommend them.
My experience at Feldmar Aesthetics couldn't have been more amazing! I had 2 surgical procedures here and everything went better than expected. They truly care about each and every patient and call you personally to check on you throughout your recovery and entire journey. The staff in the office are also so amazing and sweet and make you feel welcome every time. Couldn't ask for a better experience and will be coming back for other things!
I am truly grateful for Dr. Feldmar and his team, who provided me with a wonderful surgery experience and I couldn't recommend them more. After consultations with different doctors in different states over the years, Dr. Feldmar immediately stood out as a physician who was not only very kind and cheerful, but he genuinely cared about my concerns right from the initial visit. He is one of very few doctors (across any medical category) that have made me feel like a human being, rather than just a "patient number" or a "dollar amount" and I didn't feel like I was on a ticking time-clock during the appointments which was exceptionally meaningful to me.
Dr. Feldmar validated my feelings and past experiences and he was honest and realistic about my options and what each choice would entail. It's very clear that Dr. Feldmar really enjoys being a physician and surgeon which translates into exceptional service and wonderful results. Whether you're looking for an initial surgery or a corrective surgery, I can recommend Dr. Feldmar with complete and absolute confidence.
There are no words to describe what it feels like to get a lost piece of yourself back, and that's because of Dr. Feldmar. I also have to thank the Patient Coordinator, Marcy — 100 stars if I could. Thank you, all, for everything!!
I've had several procedures done with Dr. Feldmar, and I couldn't be happier with the results. His work is incredibly natural nobody would ever know I had cosmetic surgery unless I said so. That's exactly what I wanted. What really sets him apart is not just his skill, but also his bedside manner. He has a positive, uplifting attitude, and I always leave his office smiling.
I truly feel like he's my partner in the fight against aging and gravity. I highly recommend Dr. Feldmar to anyone considering cosmetic procedures, and I will definitely be coming back.
