Patient Testimonials
My own patients' experiences tell you as much as i can tell you about the services I offer in my practice. Here is what some of my own patients have to say...
"The greatest gift we ever gave ourselves..."
Our plastic surgery (facelifts and upper/lower eyes) turned out to be the greatest gift we ever gave ourselves. It changed the second fifty years of our lives by rejuvenating us. When they say, "You feel as good as you look" it turned out to be so true. We both were looking a little tired which made us feel like we were getting old. We took care of ourselves but time and sun had taken a toll on our faces. After the surgery it was like a rebirth, we looked younger and felt better like we did so many years ago. So we started acting like years had been shaved off our lives! It was fantastic, we are making the second fifty years as important and fun as the first fifty!
From a business perspective it enabled my husband to get job offers because he looked younger than the people hiring him. Within 3 months of the surgery he got 3 consulting jobs and he is doing very well with all 3 companies. And his energy level has never been higher and he is motivated like he was when he was 30 years old.
With my new look I had the confidence to start a business. Because of the surgery I invented a better and more comfortable way to apply ice or heat to areas after surgery or injury. I am finalizing the manufacturing process and I should launch the product within the next few months.
We are now socially active, play golf, travel and look great doing it all. What a pleasure! Dr. Jacobs and his wonderful staff made the whole experience so easy. Everyone was so caring and informative. They calmed our fears and took very good care of us before, during and after the procedures. Thanks again Dr. J.
Thanks,

A rare find....a plastic surgeon who gives back what you put in, has a heart, humor, and simply outstanding skill.
I had several procedures done by Dr. Jacobs in September 2007 and five years earlier in 2002. I've had a total of 4 operations over the last 15 years or so with 3 different surgeons, one of whom made a serious error I still have to live with. Stanley is the doctor I came back to after my bad experience because I wanted 1. a doc I felt I could really trust 2. absolute excellence and 3. someone I could speak with, rather than being spoken to. Based on my first experience with Dr. Jacobs I'd come to know he engages in technical conversation with his patients as far as they want to or are capable of going. I put in many hours of research on the history, techniques, controversies and trends of the surgical procedures I was interested in as well as learning the names and functions of the muscles and support structures of the face. My consult with Dr. Jacobs did not disappoint. He seemed to quickly recognize and appreciate the effort I'd made to educate myself and provided me far more time than I could have expected, exploring in depth, the issues, possibilities and experiences relevant to my specific goals. Dr. Jacobs even helped my best friend, who had been my helper post op, with considerable time and assistance in addressing a concern I mentioned offhand during a post op appointment. Dr. Jacobs provided not only excellent information about my friend's problem but a solution that WORKED when nothing else had....AND HE NEVER CHARGED A PENNY for helping my friend, never glanced at his watch when answering questions..etc. The man is, take it from someone who knows, truly exceptional and a RARE find (the surgeon who injured me was at STANFORD and in a position of considerable authority and respect.. illustrating how difficult finding excellence really is.) Notice I haven't even gotten to the results of the surgery? Jacobs is that good....how often are doctor appointments reliable sources of warmth, humor, demonstrable excellence and intellectual enrichment?
Pros: The best at what he does AND, warm, intellectually engaging, empathic and down to earth
Cons: If you're looking for an aggressive splicer to artlessly stretch your skin, this is NOT the man for you

Dreams Come True
I had extensive cosmetic facial surgery 12 weeks ago performed by Dr. Jacobs. I am so sbsolutely thrilled with the results that I am still on cloud nine. Not only do I look and feel 20 years younger, I'm pretty! Really pretty! People who have never met me before think I am in my 30's and those who know me but have no idea about the surgery are more than curious about the the beautiful change that has taken place. I just smile and say I'm in love. My close friends and family who know about the surgery tell me they have honestly never seen such a beautiful and natural result on anyone and I know they mean it. During our initial consultation I immediately fell in love with Dr. Jacobs and all of his staff. They are a team of professional and caring individuals who work in complete harmony. Dr. Jacobs is so easy to talk with and completely open and honest about every little detail. The computer imaging that he creates gives you a very precise look at what you should expect as the final result and in my case something to look at everyday and dream about. Guess what? My dream came true. I urge you to visit Dr. Jabocs website to read more about his vision and to see his before and after gallery. In my opinion there just isn't a more wonderful and brilliant plastic surgeon anywhere! Cynthia K.
Pros: The best and brightest
Cons: He's not immortal

Best Cometic Surgeon
My wife and I both had cosmetic surgery done by Dr. Stanley Jacobs. In our first consultation with Dr. Jacobs he was very thorough in his explanation of the procedures we were interested in having and what we can expect in terms of recovery time. His staff was extremely courteous and very pleasant to talk to. Everyone made us feel “at ease” with the procedure and we had no concerns about the outcome. Dr Jacobs showed us what we would look like through his imaging program and as soon as we saw what we would like after the procedure we knew we were doing it. We wanted to look good for our ages (I’m 58 and my wife is 53) but the results have exceeded our expectations. People that knew us before the surgery are simply amazed at how good we look and how young we look. (Makes me wonder just how bad did we look before the surgery). When new people meet us they think we are 15 years younger then we really are. How cool is that! Dr. Jacobs has a brand new facility in Healdsburg and his staff, who prepared us for the procedures were very attentive and made us feel very relaxed. The recovery was easier then we thought it would be and within a few weeks we were ready to face people. I would highly recommend Dr. Jacobs to anyone who is considering cosmetic surgery. Spend an hour with him and you see why we liked him so much. He is honest with you and doesn’t try to sell you anything you do not need. He is caring and his follow up procedure is excellent. He called us the night after our surgery to make sure we were ok and saw us for 2 consecutive days after our surgery to change our bandages and to make sure everything went as planned. We think it was one of the best decisions we made in selecting Dr Jacobs for this very personal procedure that has changed our lives not only because we look younger but also because we feel younger and consequently act younger. Many thanks to Dr. Jacobs and his staff. They truly care about their patients.

Happy with the results
Dr. Jacobs performed cosmetic surgery for me 11 weeks ago. I had a lower facelift, my upper and lower eyes done and a TCA chemical peel. When I had my consultation the staff at the office was very friendly and helpful. Dr. Jacobs did imaging for me, that helped me get an idea of what I might expect to look like after surgery. He also let me know what I could expect in regards to healing. I felt confident in Dr. Jacobs. I could not of done this otherwise. I have told my family and friends I didn't care if I looked younger. I just wanted to look the best I could for my age. I am so happy with my results, they are even better than the imaging.
Pros: great office and staff
Cons: none I can think of |
