Exceptional Plastic Surgeons Combine Artistry and Skill

He is Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is Senior Staff Surgeon at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla.

Associations
"The best kept secret in San Diego, for many years, was the mantra regarding Dr. David Wolf. I think single-handedly I did everything possible to change that and I shouted from the mountaintops the genius of this talented surgeon. Never once did any of his work ever look over-done. I should know. Dr. Wolf, my plastic surgeon performed different procedures on me up to and including a face and neck lift, tummy tuck, forehead lift, and breast augmentation. His quality workmanship has withstood the test of time, his bedside manner makes you feel as though you have been divinely guided to the hands of this perfectionist. This is your face and your body. So for the presentation in your life doesn’t it make sense to be in the hands of a skilled professional with many raving fans throughout San Diego? I am eternally grateful for the natural workmanship and the skill of Dr. David Wolf. I am privileged to be his advocate."
"I am so happy to have this opportunity to express my gratitude for the amazingly subtle and natural results of my elective surgery procedures done by Dr. David Wolf. I have continued to depend on Dr. Wolf through the years, for his aesthetic perspective and suggestions concerning my personal ongoing "maintenance," and for the preservation of a healthy youthful appearance. Dr. Wolf has an eye for proportion, balance, and beauty. He has taught me what to expect, what's possible and what's not, what's realistic for me, and how to achieve the best and most subtle results for each of the procedures I have had. In my case, Dr. Wolf has made corrections and improvements to some significant mistakes from inferior surgery choices I have made. When Dr. Wolf recently returned to his practice, I couldn't believe it!! It was perfect timing. When you find a doctor who understands, listens, cares and considers you as a work in progress, it is probably the MOST valuable phone number in your cell phone. Dr. Wolf is dedicated to each of his patients and the limitless possibilities by blending the most recent technologies in plastic surgeries, with the natural contours of each person's body for the most fantastic results. I personally recommend Dr. David Wolf for anyone!!"
"Dr. David Wolf is an exceptional surgeon dedicated to details and natural results. His work reflects more than great surgery, it is his art. I have seen results of his work on many friends and family. In my experience, whether he has performed liposuctions, abdominal surgeries, breast augmentations, facelifts, or rhinoplasties; the results are always remarkable. Without reservation I recommend Dr. Wolf as a surgeon who practices his art with outstanding results."
"I have known Dr. Wolf for over 25 years and have used his services as a wonderful plastic surgeon on several occasions. In all the time that I have known him, he has always been attentive, detail oriented and very meticulous in the way he evaluates my concerns and then recommends the right surgery to meet my goals. I appreciate how much time he always spent with me and how I never felt rushed. I have always found that he was easy to reach and more than willing to discuss any pre-operative or post-operative concerns that I had. The surgeries were exactly as he had described, but the results were always better than even I had expected. I think he's great!"
"I meet and work with very affluent people on a daily basis in the course of my business. Obviously plastic surgery is always discussed. I narrowed down the surgeon for my own facelift to either Dr. Wolf or another well known plastic surgeon in La Jolla. After seeing each doctor's patients and their results, I chose Dr. Wolf to perform my surgery. The anesthesia and recovery was stress free and his staff was attentive and caring. Dr. Wolf spent a great deal of time making sure that I fully understood everything I needed to know about the surgery. The results were amazing. I think I look at least 12 years younger. But no one could ever tell that I had a facelift. I would never go anywhere else."
"Over the course of many years, I've come to know Dr. Wolf as the finest plastic surgeon in San Diego County. Not only is he exceptionally trained, but he is honest and completely forthcoming with patients so that they know what to expect with their surgery and their results. I am in the fitness business and in front of the public all the time, so it is very important to me that my results are natural. His eye for the aesthetic and his skills in achieving a most natural look are the greatest reasons that he will be the only plastic surgeon that I would ever trust."
