Dr. Jacob Tower

This was undoubtedly one of the most pleasant and seamless experiences I've ever had as a new patient anywhere. Dr. Towers and staff were very helpful and friendly. The one person that definitely made this process the easiest though, from the beginning (deciding where to go) to the finish, was Katie at the front desk. She was not only very helpful from my first ever call, but also very polite and informative every single time. Her being able to answer all my questions and go the extra mile to assist every time I had any concerns through the whole process is what made me choose The Spiegal Center. She is unquestionably a key asset to your team's success.

I found Dr. Tower through RealSelf which helped me find a provider in Boston with otoplasty reviews. I was hoping to find someone who had explicit experience in dozens of otoplasties a year, so was using surgery review counts here as a proxy. So, I wanted to contribute back!

Carole at the Spiegel Center was my coordinator and she was great in walking me through the process. I had a virtual consult with Dr. Tower first, an in-person consult, and then they were able to fit me in within a week or so for surgery before having to travel abroad.

The procedure was done with local anesthesia and took an hour or two. Dr. Tower was very collaborative and thoughtful. After several weeks of healing, we decided to make a small tweak (a personal preference), which Dr. Tower was very flexible and accomodating of. I can't stress enough how collaborative the experience was - we worked as a team to get the best outcome! He did an incredible job and my ears look really great.

Would 100% recommend to anyone who is looking for a thoughtful and collaborative otoplasty provider in Boston who genuinly cares about both achieving a great aesthetic outcome and one you're fully happy with!

After working with both Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel and Dr. Onir Spiegel over a variety of treatments and services, I can confidently say the experience has been exceptional from start to finish. What stands out most is not just the technical expertise, although both doctors are clearly operating at the highest level, but the thoughtfulness, precision, and professionalism of the entire practice.

Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel brings an incredible depth of experience and aesthetic judgment, while Dr. Onir Spiegel combines modern technique, intelligence, and a highly attentive approach. At no point did I ever feel rushed, pressured, or treated like just another patient. Every recommendation felt individualized, strategic, and carefully considered.

Equally impressive is the staff. Cristina, Katie, and the entire team create an environment that is warm, responsive, organized, and genuinely supportive throughout the process. Communication has been outstanding, follow up has been consistent, and the level of patient care is far beyond what I have experienced elsewhere.

This practice understands something many places do not. Great aesthetic work is not just about procedures. It is about trust, judgment, artistry, and long term relationships. Their attention to detail and commitment to natural, high quality outcomes is obvious.

I would highly recommend Spiegel Center to anyone looking for world class expertise paired with professionalism, integrity, and an exceptional patient experience.

I was facing something that had quietly become overwhelming. My nose had collapsed to the point where breathing through it was nearly impossible. Nights were restless, my ear felt constantly blocked, and the solutions I was being offered felt drastic. One highly regarded local surgeon told me my case was so extreme that cartilage would need to be taken from my ear to rebuild my nose, warning that my nose would widen significantly and look very different. I was willing to accept that because I just wanted to breathe again, and my hearing had also begun to lessen, making me wonder if everything was connected. Still, something in me hesitated. Then I remembered Dr. Jacob Tower. Years earlier, I had met him when he was at Lahey Clinic, a deeply respected ear, nose, and throat specialist with extraordinary skill in facial aesthetics. I reached out, and he responded immediately. From our very first conversation, everything changed. Dr. Tower didn’t just see a 'difficult case'; he saw a better path. He explained clearly, thoughtfully, and with remarkable depth what was actually happening and how he could restore not just structure, but function and quality of life. He invited me to come see him right away at The Spiegel Center. What he offered was simpler, smarter, and far more elegant, and I booked surgery on the spot. Three weeks ago today, he performed it. I remember waking up and, for the first time in years, breathing fully through my nose — effortlessly, quietly, completely. There were no overwhelming nasal packings, no dramatic bruising, nothing like I had been warned to expect. Even more surprising, everything started to come back to life. The pressure in my ear disappeared, my hearing sharpened, and one moment I’ll never forget was hearing my cat meowing from the garage while I was upstairs. I hadn’t realized how much I’d been missing until that instant. So many times she had followed me into the garage and cried to come out, and I simply hadn’t heard her. Unaware. Muted. Yes, my nose shape changed slightly — it had to — but in the hands of Dr. Tower, who is not only a surgeon but truly an artist, the result is natural, balanced, and thoughtful. Not 'different' in a way that takes from you, but refined in a way that gives something back. And that’s what he does. He gives people their lives back in ways they didn’t even realize they had lost. At just three weeks out, I can say without hesitation that this changed my life. My deepest respect and gratitude to Dr. Jacob Tower and his exceptional team at The Spiegel Center. I’ve been around aesthetics long enough to recognize true excellence when I see it, and this is it. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Dr. Spiegel is truly the best face surgeon in the world. He's got 26 years of experience and it shows all over my face! I had facial feminization surgery with extensive bone work (jaw to chin, brow, rhino) and soft tissue procedures (upper and lower bleph, cheek and lip fat transfer, hairline) all at once. Uzma was my care coordinator and handled everything so that my entire surgery was covered by my insurance (Harvard Pilgrim). Once I gave them my letters of support Uzma got me a date in only 3 months! The operation could not have been handled with more support. I'm ngl about recovery, that first night was awful but for nothing to do with Dr. Spiegel; it just IS ROUGH! But by day 3 I was back to work and after a week I felt great.

There are truly not enough words to express how incredible my experience was with Dr. Spiegel. From the very first consultation, I felt heard, respected, cared for, and genuinely valued as a patient. His bedside manner is absolutely exceptional attentive, compassionate, patient, and reassuring every step of the way. You can immediately tell that he truly cares deeply about his patients and their outcomes, both physically and emotionally. What sets him apart is not only his brilliant surgical mind, but also his extraordinary artistic vision and talent in corrective surgery. The level of precision, skill, and attention to detail is remarkable. He has completely restored my confidence in ways I cannot fully put into words. The results exceeded every expectation I had, and I am beyond grateful for his expertise and dedication. Finding a surgeon with this level of professionalism, compassion, and artistry is rare. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone considering corrective surgery. He is truly gifted at what he does, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have been under his care.

I am extremely happy with the results of my neck and face lift performed by Dr. Jacob Tower. The outcome exceeded my expectations, and I feel refreshed and confident. Dr. Tower is truly skilled, professional, and attentive. I also want to recognize his assistant, Cristina, who was incredibly friendly, supportive, and helpful throughout the entire process. From consultation to recovery, the experience was excellent. I highly recommend Dr. Tower and his team.

I had a really great experience with Dr. Tower. He’s very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and made me feel comfortable from start to finish. He took the time to answer my questions and explain everything in a way that made sense. I’m also very happy with my results, which made the whole experience even better. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a doctor who genuinely cares about their patients and desired results.

Dr. Jacob Tower is truly exceptional—he was born for this work.
From our very first conversation, he didn’t just listen—he heard me. He understood both my fears and exactly what I hoped to achieve. As an older African American woman, I carried a lot of hesitation going into this process. I had heard so many negative stories, and part of me wondered, what if they’re right? I’m so grateful to say—they were not. I underwent procedures under Dr. Tower’s care, and from start to finish, I felt confident that I was in the right hands. He gave me exactly what I wanted. He enhanced, not changed, and the result feels natural, refined, and true to me. That level of precision and restraint takes not just skill, but real artistry.
Beyond his talent, he is incredibly grounded and personable. After my visit, I learned he’s a history buff who loves Boston, appreciates the change of seasons, and enjoys skiing—it’s rare to meet someone so accomplished who remains so genuinely humble. His assistant, Uzma Hussain, is equally remarkable. She is not only beautiful—truly model-level—but more importantly, she is warm, kind, and incredibly attentive. She made me feel completely at ease from the beginning. At times, she felt more like a sister than an assistant. She would sit with me during my visits, talk with me about life—even summer vacations—and always made sure I felt comfortable and cared for. She is organized, keeps everything running smoothly, and gives the best hugs when you need reassurance the most. The entire experience at the Spiegel Center exceeded my expectations. For anyone—especially women of color who may have concerns about being understood or represented—I can say with confidence: you are in the best hands here. I would choose Dr. Tower and his team a thousand times over.

After much research, I chose Dr. Tower at the Spiegel Center. From the very first consult, Dr. Tower and Uzma Husain, my patient coordinator, made me feel 100% comfortable with my decision to go forward with a neck lift. He took the time to kindly and patiently explain everything clearly. Today I am two weeks post-op, and I am beyond delighted with my results. I never thought my neck could look this good, especially this soon. My recovery has been easier than I had anticipated. I did not see any bruising. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Tower, Uzma, and the rest of the team, who made this entire procedure stress-free. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Tower and his team to anyone. (Special thanks to Uzma, who always responded to my questions via email immediately, even on a weekend). I am beyond delighted with my results.

Finding the right surgeon for a deep-plane facelift and neck lift is a significant decision, but from my first meeting with Dr. Tower, I knew I was in excellent hands.
Dr. Tower has a naturally calm and approachable demeanor that immediately put me at ease. His interpersonal skills are second to none; he truly listens and communicates with a level of care that is rare, and he was always available and responsive to my questions throughout the entire process. I must also credit the patient coordinator, Cristina. She was consistently caring and responsive, and she kept the lines of communication open throughout the entire process.
The surgical experience itself was seamless. The operating room staff was excellent—professional, kind, and efficient. During the recovery process, I experienced absolutely no pain. Dr. Tower’s post-operative management regimen was perfect, ensuring I was comfortable every step of the way.
Beyond his bedside manner, he is an incredibly gifted surgeon. As for the results? They are nothing short of spectacular. I couldn’t be happier with how I look and feel.
If you are looking for a surgeon who combines world-class skill with a compassionate, patient-centered approach, look no further. Dr. Tower has my highest possible recommendation for anyone seeking exceptional care and results.

A week ago I got a rhinoplasty at the The Spiegel Center and I could not have had a better experience. The only thing more impressive than Dr. Tower’s credentials is his ability to truly understand his patients. My results are exactly what I described I wanted and the recovery was smooth and painless. What should have been a stressful experience was made easy with my care coordinator Carol by my side every step of the way. I cannot thank Dr. Tower and the team at The Spiegel Center enough for such a wonderful experience. I highly recommend choosing the The Spiegel Center for all of your plastic surgery needs.
