What recent patients say
5.0 / 5 · 163 Google reviewsI’m currently a patient of Dr. Albert’s in the earlier stages of recovery after breast reduction surgery. From my first consultation through the procedure and now post-op care, I’ve felt supported by him and his team every step of the way. Dr. Albert has a quiet confidence that does not read as pretentious, but instead reflects deep expertise, passion, and respect for his craft. He is calm, grounded, and easy to talk to. I say this as someone who falls on the more sensory-attuned side of things, and he seemed to register that intuitively himself. He met my nerves with a steadiness that neither dramatized nor diminished my sometimes racing thoughts and questions. This was perhaps best captured on the day of surgery itself. While I was being prepped on the operating table, he struck up a simple yet meaningfully human conversation with me that gently equalized the space, all while leaving intact the sense that I was in the hands of someone undoubtedly skilled and in command. I remarked to my partner afterward that this small gesture of authenticity from him put me at such great ease that I think I may have actually fallen asleep before the anesthesia had taken full effect. Dr. Albert’s team was also incredibly helpful with the pre-authorization process and with documenting medical necessity for insurance, which was ultimately approved. As a healthcare professional who values access, equity, and inclusion myself, I especially appreciated the efforts the team took to utilize my insurance and establish what was very real medical necessity in a way that did not burden nor demand anything of me in interfacing with my insurance carrier. From both a personal and professional perspective, I would recommend Dr. Albert and his practice to my own friends, family, patients, clients, and colleagues seeking referrals alike for this very reason alone. One last thing I’ll say is that this procedure has meant a great deal more to me than merely a needed physical change. Having a larger chest that felt disproportionate to my frame, especially in my earlier years as a teenage girl, shaped my relationship to my body in physical, social, and psychological ways that created tension and ultimately self-estrangement. It created an early awareness of being perceived, watched, and overdefined by an external part of myself before I ever even had the chance to fully claim it as my own. It is still early days for me, but I am already experiencing deep gratitude for what has been an empowering and liberating decision and surgical experience. Above all, it has felt like a reclamation of comfort and reinvention of bodily autonomy, and it’s an invaluable gift that Dr. Albert and his team have afforded me with. As you’re considering your options on whatever personal or aesthetic journey you’re on right now, I’d highly recommend Dr. Albert to be the surgeon you entrust to help forge that path toward greater self-alignment with you.
Great experience. Friendly staff and amazing experience with the Dr.
Dr. Albert is AMAZING! He did my breast reduction last year and I absolutely love my results! It exceeded my expectations. I was very nervous at first to have it and also what my results would look like and what recovery looked like and it was all great. The staff was helpful answering questions and easing my worry. The day of surgery I went home thinking I would be in excruciating pain and I was not at ALL. I didn't even need to take the painkillers prescribed. I healed fairly quick and again LOVE my results. I have minimal scars. He really helped gain my confidence back. I thank Dr. Albert SO much. I recommend him 1000%!!
Best doctor ever hands-down recommend 10 out of 10. Has the best staff ever ! As well. Thank you guys so much for everything ❤️

Dr. Albert's Surgical Approach
Dr. Mark Albert approaches the deep plane facelift as a technique that works beneath the skin's surface to reposition the deeper structures of the face.
Dr. Mark Albert approaches the deep plane facelift as a technique that works beneath the skin's surface to reposition the deeper structures of the face. Rather than pulling on the skin alone, this method addresses the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a layer of muscle and connective tissue that supports the face).
The deep plane technique involves releasing and repositioning tissue at a deeper level than traditional facelift methods. This sub-SMAS dissection allows the surgeon to lift the underlying support structures as a unit, which many surgeons associate with a more natural and durable result.
