Marialyn J. Sardo, MD

I have had two surgeries done by Dr. Sardo. One was a breast augmentation 12 years ago. Then I got a mini tummy tuck almost 2 years ago. At the time of my tummy tuck she checked my breast implants and said they were still in perfect condition. I couldn’t be happier with both of my surgeries. I felt like she really listened to what I wanted. I have had no regrets with either surgery. She is great at what she does and I highly recommend her.

The BEST. This plastic surgeon is a protectionist with her work, outstanding, immaculate with her work, outstanding, precise with understanding of what you want and precise with her work. I am so fortunate to have met Dr Sardo. I am «extremely» happy with my results on breasts, lipo suction, areola reduction in size, and fixing to lip due to abnormal bump from fillers. I cannot believe the outstanding work and the follow up this Dr Sardo does.
Thank you Dr Sardo

I would 100% give Dr. Sardo 10 stars of I could! I am 5ft tall and 96 lbs, so there is a very thin line between a natural-​looking BA or looking silly. Dr. Sardo understood exactly what I wanted and I am soooo happy with the results! Everyone tells me how natural my breasts look and can’t even believe I had surgery! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a natural shape! Thank you Dr. Sardo!

She is amazing! Had breast augmentation 3 years ago and went back to make sure everything was good and she is the best! Her staff is friendly and professional. She is always on time and with a smile answers any question and explains beyond what is expected. She makes you feel comfortable and reminds you that she is there for whatever you need. If you are looking for someone who is kind, professional and with great reputation… Go with her! Will not regret it…

I had some surgery done by Dr Sardo. I found her to be thorough and talented as my doctor. She did a wonderful job and would never think about going to anyone else for future needs

Both me and my husband are so happy to have found Dr Sardo. She is the most caring doctor I have ever met, and her work is meticulous! I really feel that her carefulness and thought was why my recovery was pretty easy. I stopped taking OTC pain killers after the third day (I had a mommy makeover). I am so glad that my friend referred me to her.

I have been battling acne since the age of thirteen and as a result I have developed scarring /​indentation around my entire face. I have completed two treatments of Fraxel CO2 and have been applying retinoids on a daily basis for two years. The treatments went well but I had a noticeable amount of pitted scarring around my face and was told to try a dermal filler (Belotero) and I was highly recommended to consult Doctor Marialyn Sardo. Upon entering the office the staff was immediately welcoming and made me feel comfortable throughout my entire experience. I hate needles and I am afraid anybody touching my face but Doctor Sardo was so precise and careful that I never had an uncomfortable feeling and there was minimal pain.
Doctor Sardo is great at what she does and I definitely recommend the experience because of the person she is. My face looks fantastic and my self esteem has improved tremendously.
Thank you so much Doctor Sardo.

My experience with Dr Sardo and her staff was excellent. The results I got are fantastic and everything I hoped for. Dr Sardo is very professional and her staff is as well. Everything happened with the procedure just as they said it would. Having the procedure done by a real doctor in a real OR under general anesthesia is a definite plus and the way to go for sure. I highly recommend her.

I went with my Fiancé here last week for a consult for a minor liposuction for a small area on her face. I feel that Dr. Sardo was very compassionate and understanding with her. My fiancé was very nervous at the time. Dr. Sardo spent her time with us evaluating the situation and coming up with a plan. We will be scheduling the small surgery soon. Tana, her Office Coordinator/​Manager is very caring and wonderful to work with as well. Going to a doctor for anything can be stressful… but if you need to this is the place to go!

After having 4 children and losing 135 lbs I needed someone who could meet all my needs. Dr. Sardo is amazing. From her consult to surgery and even now through my recover I have received excellent competent care. Her quiet genital nature is not to be out done by her skilled hands and eye for detail. I consulted with three surgeons for my abdominal plasty «tummy tuck» they were all very qualified surgeons, but at the end of the day I felt like she understood my personal goal and to me that was priceless.

I just had my implants removed and some minor scar revision by Dr. Sardo 10 days ago (she did not do the augmentation). I would highly recommend her! She is very calm, confident and perfectly even tempered, just as a good surgeon should be! I met with a couple of surgeons and chose Dr. Sardo and I am ecstatic with my choice. She and her staff were extremely thorough and explained every detail. They are very organized and gave me a very complete package for pre op, post op instructions. Very meticulous! My surgery was an absolute breeze! I felt amazing right after surgery WITH ABSOLUTELY NO PAIN OR DISCOMFORT. I was amazed and so was my entire family, especially my mom that was there to take care of me. I really didn’t need any assistance at all, but it was nice having my mom prepare good Italian food while I was resting. I had great energy (actually more than before my surgery). The fact that I felt zero discomfort or pain was a real pleasant surprise. My healing has been smooth with no issues. I am beyond pleased with my results and trust Dr. Sardo. If I ever have anymore elective surgery, she will be the one to do it.

I am an experienced Surgical First Assistant, who specializes in Cosmetic/​Plastic/​Reconstructive Surgery. I have worked alongside over 50 Cosmetic Surgeons, and very closely with 34 Cosmetic Surgeons in San Diego County, alone. My experience is spread over 28 years, and in numerous Counties. I have worked with the finest Surgeons around, so I can say with confidence, that Dr. Marialyn Sardo, is one of the finest! I have often told prospective patients, that while they may know 2 or 3 people who can give a referral, these people only have their own experience, with the surgeon, and do not know what goes on behind the scenes. Maybe their 3 friends got great results, but I can tell you how the other 2000 or so surgeries went. I believe that Dr. Marialyn Sardo, is the finest female Surgeon, in all of San Diego County (Perhaps even the whole West Coast), and I would choose her as my Surgeon, without a second thought! I recommend Dr. Sardo, without hesitation, and I have had people come to me with regret, that they chose their «friend’s doctor» over one who comes highly recommended, instead. It is your body, do not take your chances. Dr. Sardo is an Artist. Your body is the work of Art!

Dr. Sardo is extremely competent, patient, observant and has an exceptional eye for suggesting what may/​should OR SHOULD NOT be done. In a field of medicine wherein it is more likely than not that the plastic surgeon will recommend more vs fewer procedures to be performed, Dr. Sardo stands out as the exception. She is honest, conservative, and discerning. She understands and practices achieving the true definition of beauty – not a formularized, plastic outcome.

I am so happy with my recent surgery from Dr. Sardo. I went in to have a «mommy makeover» done. I interviewed several surgeons and did tons of research on line. Dr. Sardo was the only surgeon who actually listened to what I wanted. She offered some suggestions and we came up with a great plan together.
I had a tummy tuck, breast lift and augmentation just 3 weeks ago. I couldn’t believe how easy the recovery was. Everyone I had spoken to before made it seem like I would be in so much pain for weeks. Realistically, I was feeling great and off the pain pills by day 3.
My scarring is minimal and it healing very well. I am so happy that I had the surgery and even happier that I went with Dr. Sardo.

I love my new breasts! I went from an A/​small B to a full C cup and the results are very natural looking and proportionate to my body. Dr. Sardo is an amazing doctor, she’s patient and caring and an artist at what she does. I felt much more comfortable seeing a female plastic surgeon and I’m so happy I found Dr. Sardo, I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Dr. Sardo is an extremely awesome surgeon! She listens to her patients and provides great work. She pays meticulous attention to details while working her gentle and artistic hands! The end result: amazing work that looks natural and beautiful.
I went to dr. Sardo for a breast aug. a few years back. I was nervous when I went to her since I had never had any surgeries before. I wanted to look natural, not too big where people would stare while talking to me, but just a little something so I’d feel good in my clothes and not look like a boy. I have had other consultations previous to seeing dr. Sardo where the doctors were trying to convince me to go much bigger. They didn’t listen and they didn’t make me feel comfortable. I also did tons of research and felt good about dr. Sardo’s experience… being featured on TV and TLC was definitely impressive!
Needless to say, I went with her and am very happy with the results. I have friends still in amazement when I tell them I had work done. Even in a bathing suit people are shocked when I tell them because they look so natural.
I highly recommend going to her! Thank you Dr. Sardo! I love them and my boyfriend loves them too :)
