Dr. Glafkides is truly fantastic — he works miracles! I got a huge gash on my forehead that required about 40 stitches. I was worried I’d have a frankenstein-like scar on my face, so on the way to the ER, my radiologist friend hooked me up with Dr. Glafkides. Dr. Glafkides came to the ER and did all the stitching and after-care. He was extremely careful, thorough and reassuring, and gave me very detailed instructions for how to minimize potential scarring. His work was so good that most people can’t even see the faint little line on my forehead! Given that the gash went from my eyebrow almost all the way up to my hairline, it’s amazing that it didn’t turn into a nasty scar. Dr. Glafkides is a miracle-worker. He’s also a really nice guy who truly cares about his patients.

My Dr. was on vacation and Dr. Glafikides was covering for him. Excellent doctor! I would highly recommend. He goes out of his way to make the patient feel important. In conversations with him, it is evident he knows his practice and is good at what he does. Highly recommend!

Dr. Glafkides is an excellent doctor and surgeon. I highly recommend him for anyone that wants a skilled doctor, that’s an artisan and who really takes great pride in his work. He is warm and engaging and it’s nice to feel like you are in the best of hands. I am very pleased with my results and he is my first choice for anything I want or need done.

For many years, the women in my Leadership groups have mentioned the surgical and injectable tweaks provided by Dr. Glafkides with joy and confidence. Why does his name come up for facial cosmetic and reconstructive procedures so often? These are women, who don’t otherwise know each other! Today, a good friend showed me the injectable artistry, done by Dr. Glafkides. I was surprise that there was no bruising, no big lumps of filler resting in the wrong places from lack of precision or the wrong-size needles. Now, everyone is wondering when I’ll have the courage to be temporary pin cushion for a facial refresher…

My 2 years old got a very deep cut on her lip on Saturday night at around 8 pm. We arrived to the After Hours Pediatrics at around 9pm. To our surprise there were a plastic surgeon doctor Michael C Glafkides, MD on call who arrived 20 minutes later and did outstanding job fixing the cut. Despite the stress of seeing your kid bleeding, it was a very pleasant experience dealing with this service! Dr. Glafkides did all he could to get my kid smiling again and I can’t be more appreciating. Thank you very much doc!

I had breast reduction surgery in August of 2011 and Dr. Glafkides did a superb job! He explained the procedure very thoroughly, was considerate and caring and I can’t say enough about his bedside manner. He was also thorough at post op visits and explained everything completely so that I was completely comfortable with the results. I’d return to him for any future work with no question.

My 9 year old took a bad fall while ice skating which resulted in a visit to the emergency room at Mills Peninsula in Burlingame. Dr. Argand(ER doctor) took one look at the laceration on her chin and determined that she needed to be seen by a plastic surgeon. Dr. Glafkides came to see my daughter. Did a quick assessment of her injury and got right down to business. Like another reviewer had mentioned, his calm, friendly, and comforting mannerism put both me and my daughter at ease. He stitched her up with great efficiency and precision. I am very hopeful that she will heal just fine with minimum scarring. We have a follow-up with Dr. Glafkides in a week and my daughter can’t wait to thank him in person as she was too traumatized to speak in the ER(chuckle). Thank you Dr. Glafkides and thank you Dr. Argand for having my daughter’s best interest at heart and recommended Dr. Glafkides. ps…my daughter will be back on the ice next week!

My wife saw Dr. Glafkides for a breast reduction. He was terrific in all aspects and she is more than pleased with the results. His work is excellent. Beyond that, though, he communicates well and really cares about his patients. He has a calm, friendly, and comforting bedside manner and my wife was very relaxed throughout the entire process. His communication with me(the husband) was also great. He kept me appraised of her status post-op and included me in the follow up. The doctor and his staff took care of all the documentation and application needed to successfully receive coverage from the insurance company. I can’t say enough nice things about Dr. Glafkides. He’s really a wonderful doctor and we would certainly use him again.

I was highly recommended by my physician, Dr. Damon Lee, to see Dr. Glafkides for surgical removal of something I’ve had since I was a baby.(procrastination is a jerk …) Considering I’ve had this small lump all of my life, I was very nervous and picky when it came to choosing a Dr. Even though Dr. Glafkides was not on my list-of-providers under my insurance, he said he would contact my insurance and make sure I was taken care of. And that he did. I had to have my surgery at the Campus Surgery Center in Daly City(Rm 200) as he required a larger facility for the procedure.(see review of the center for details: P) As nerve-wracking as it seemed, he was always calm and answered any/all my questions. After the surgery, the nurses and other medical professionals(for lack of knowledge… of their titles…) in the room praised him for his precise, clean, and professional work. I saw him for a check up a few days ago and he said I’m healing quickly. His assistant, Karen, is very friendly and helpful. She contacted me periodically to update me on my insurance status and to schedule follow-up appointments. The office is located near Tanforan Mall so if you’re like me and carless, you can take Bart to San Bruno and walk through the mall and a few(kinda big) blocks to the office. It’s not too bad. The best part is… there’s never a long wait to be seen! :) I highly recommend Dr. Glafkides. Considering I could have seen a Dermatologist, I chose Dr. Glafkides because he was much more sensitive and keen on physical aesthetics…(does that make sense? :P) He’s a plastic surgeon so he’ll make sure you don’t look ridiculous… No one could tell I had surgery the days following… He truly is amazing at what he does. Thank you so much for taking care of me through this nerve-wracking process!
