I felt genuinely cared for every step of the way. Uzma, my patient coordinator, was wonderful, always making sure the next steps were clear and helping me feel confident moving forward. On the day of surgery, Dr. Spiegel even took extra time and went above and beyond to provide clarifying answers to one last question I had, which meant a lot to me and made the world of a difference. Dr. Spiegel is clearly a leader in his field, combining innovative techniques with a truly personalized approach and great dedication to his patients. My results have been nothing short of amazing and life changing. Thank you to Dr. Spiegel, Uzma, and the entire staff for a positive experience I will never forget

Not only was Dr. Spiegel wonderfully compassionate, kind, caring, and patient, the results of his surgery on my face are incredible. I am so immensely grateful to the entire staff at the Spiegel Center for just how amazing they all are.
It is hard to decide who to trust with such a vital procedure - after all, your face is irreplaceable - but Dr. Spiegel and the entire team made me feel confident and at ease from the get-go. From Carole my surgical coordinator, to Katie my electrolysis and other procedures coordinator, Nancy, Meghan and the rest of the team, Dr. Onir with her wonderful charm and kindness with injections, and the fabulous electrolysis technicians, this is a world-class team.
When you entrust your body, your looks, and your life to a surgeon, it is a huge thing to do. And there is nowhere else I would rather go to than the Spiegel Center. They have brought to the forefront my internal vision of how my face should always have looked, and that is a priceless gift to me.
My journey to my authentic self is not yet complete, and there are still several procedures ahead of me. I will be returning, again and again, to Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel and his team at the Spiegel center, with 100% confidence that they are the perfect team for me. I am so excited to finally be able to be myself, and Dr. Spiegel and everyone at the Spiegel Center are instrumental in helping me to get there.

He looked me right in the eyes, shook my hand with a firm grip, and that combination spoke volumes to me. You can really tell a lot about a person when they look you in the eyes and give a firm handshake it gave me total confidence in his judgment. He explained everything in detail, answered all my questions, and took his time with me. I can’t wait to schedule my surgery I know I’m in the best hands.

I am in the process of healing from a rhinoplasty that I had done in July 2025 . I think the most important thing to understand when you have a rhinoplasty done is that it really does take a good two years before all the inflammation goes down. Dr. Tower uses a technique that does help that process to happen a little more quickly.
Dr. Tower doesn’t just do your surgery and then forget about you. He constantly follows up with you to make sure things are healing appropriately.
Thank you, Christina and Dr. Tower

Eight Failed Rhinoplasties Later, I Finally Found the Right Surgeon — And For the First Time, I Love My Nose
After eight nasal surgeries since the age of 19, I had almost given up.?With every reconstructive procedure, my nose became more complicated — more scar tissue, more fibrosis, more disappointment.

After eight nasal surgeries since the age of 19, I had almost given up.?With every reconstructive procedure, my nose became more complicated — more scar tissue, more fibrosis, more disappointment. I changed surgeons multiple times, including highly publicized, well-known doctors. Yet each surgery made things worse, not better. Eventually, I reached a point where other surgeons were hesitant to even touch my nose. Then I found Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel. By the time I came to him, I was emotionally and physically exhausted. He agreed to take on my complex revision case when others would not. Today, at 40 years old, after what I truly hope is my final surgery, I can say something I never thought I would: I love my nose. At nine months post-op, the swelling has significantly subsided, the structure is stable, and the result looks natural and balanced. More importantly, he continues to monitor my progress carefully. His expertise in revision rhinoplasty, particularly in cases with severe scar tissue, is exceptional. I only wish I had found him first. It would have saved me years of surgeries, financial cost, and unnecessary pain. And I must speak about Uzma. Words honestly do not do her justice. In complex revision cases, the emotional weight is just as heavy as the surgical one. Uzma carries that weight with grace. She is not simply an assistant, she is the bridge between patient anxiety and surgical precision. Every message is answered. Every concern is acknowledged. Every question reaches the doctor and comes back with clarity. Her responsiveness is unmatched. There were times I felt like she never sleeps, because no matter when I reached out, she was there. Calm. Kind. Reassuring. What makes her truly extraordinary is not just her efficiency, it is her humanity. She welcomes you with a warmth that immediately lowers your guard. She remembers details. She understands the emotional history behind a revision patient. She makes you feel protected in a process that can otherwise feel terrifying. Dr. Spiegel’s surgical skill is world-class — but the experience in his office is elevated because of Uzma. Together, they are not just a team; they are a system of excellence and compassion. If you have a complicated case, especially a revision, my advice is simple: go directly to Dr. Spiegel. It could save you years of frustration.

It's not just the results, it the care: before, during and after that sets the Spiegel Center apart in my opinion.
I am very pleased with my upper/lower bleph and brow lift. Even though I had a minor complication. That complication gave me a view into the outstanding care and service. Not just excellent when everything goes well but they've got you, responsive and elegant and with impeccable care when there is a bump in the road too. That level of care is notable.

I know I could have gotten my adjustments for less, but it's my FACE!!! I paid for the best and I believe that is exactly what I received.
In the end my procedures got me to my goals in a very satisfying way. It's not just the results, it the care: before, during and after that sets the Spiegel Center apart in my opinion.

I chose Dr. Tower because of his excellent credentials and, being on the younger side, I felt confident he had the most up-to-date training in the newest and best surgical techniques. What truly exceeded my expectations, though, was his ability to immediately put me at ease—from our first consultation, through surgery, and well into recovery. His bedside manner is exceptional: calm, thoughtful, and genuinely kind. From the very beginning, I felt I could trust him with such an important and personal decision.
I had an upper blepharoplasty, brow lift, and lip lift, and the quality of his work is nothing short of impeccable. I am extremely detail-oriented and research everything thoroughly; I ask very specific questions about techniques, materials, sutures, and overall surgical planning. Every aspect of Dr. Tower’s approach checked all the boxes for what I consider best-in-class, modern surgical care.
My results are truly outstanding. I look refreshed, lifted, and polished, yet completely like myself. No one would ever guess I’ve had work done, but my confidence has been restored to how I felt in my 20s, before motherhood changed the way I saw myself. That balance—beautiful results without altering identity—is incredibly rare and speaks to Dr. Tower’s skill and aesthetic judgment.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Tower. I feel so fortunate to have found him and will absolutely trust him with all of my future aesthetic procedures. Highly, highly recommend.

I found him to be tender, funny, and quick to make sure that I was feeling my best during my procedure. I felt so safe, happy, comfortable, and assured in his hands. His perfectionistic nature reassured me that my results were going to be SO fabulous and they are, without a doubt!!
I didn’t feel the typical hierarchy, he was so chill, confident, bubbly, youthful that he made me feel more like a friend rather than just a patient. He is also a great singer! (:
So grateful to him and his staff who took such GREAT care of me… Dr. Drake, Carole and the rest of the team, I appreciate your hard work and attentiveness to your patients, a remarkable extension.
Another thank you to the staff member who helped me to my Lyft because I wore the wrong shoes, what a **kind** person! I’m so sorry I didn’t get your name, but even today I thank you for your help.These are the type of people that you meet at The Spiegel Center, the best kind of human beings.
My results are looking fabulous, sexy and I look 10 years younger!
Dr. Spiegel… YOU ARE THE BEST and I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life!
Sending you so much love!!

It did not take long after walking through the doors at the SC that I knew this was the place to entrust myself to perform my DPFL. I had done my research consulting several other doctors; but, as soon as I met Dr. Spiegel, I knew. Behind his likable, approachable demeanor, was a doctor who knew the face & the power behind his double certified credentialing and his many years of experience to restore what was lost through many years of aging.
Little did I know, I would also be embraced by the entire staff as family. I would be remiss if I did not mention two persons, in particular, very dear to me. Nicole, SC team leader, my initial contact, who fielded every question & concern known to man to assure me that considering the SC would be the right choice. And, last but not least in every sense, Uzma, who was assigned to me as my personal patient coordinator. She held my hand, my heart and my process as if I were her only patient and, at my end, became a very dear personal, unforgettable friend.
How lucky am I! Thank you SC so much for taking me on. I am forever changed, rejuvenated and ready for the last third of my run!
