I had a lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning on 11/20/19 with Dr. Levin and my results are amazing and better than I could have imagined. It took 20 years to find the right surgeon I felt comfortable with and I'm glad I waited. The entire staff goes above and beyond and made me feel very comfortable before, during and after surgery. Cindra (front office) made it easy to schedule all my appointments, Jennifer (nurse) couldn't be more caring and attentive and of course Dr. Levin who performed my surgery. Everything was very clear from the beginning (expectations, cost, procedure

Dr. Levin, Cindra & Jen are some of the nicest, professional medical folks I've ever encountered. I had eye cancer years ago and my eyelids were uneven possibly from radiation and Dr. Levin did an amazing job leveling them out. He explains good and bad to a "T" so the patient is fully informed on the procedure which is a great attribute when so many doctors sugarcoat procedures.

I went to Dr. Levin to have blepharoplasty, fat repositioning, along with a temporal brow lift and some skin lasering. I can't express how happy I am with, not only the procedure, but the care I experienced from the nurse (Jennifer) as well as the anesthesiologist (Dan). I was fairly nervous on the morning of the procedure, but they all made me feel like I was in great hands (which I was!).
Even though I have the typical bruising and swelling that occurs after such a procedure, I can see what the end result is going to look like and I am so pleased.
I would highly recommend Dr. Levin and

I went to see Dr. Peter Levin because of a plugged tear duct and he did the exam, but was very rude, egotistical, and seemed bothered. It was like he had no interest in really wanting to see me or answer any question. His staff was nice and that's it. Never see this doctor because he treats you like he isn't interested. I think he wants the money for bigger surgery/appointments. I never went back. I went back to my eye doctor in Sunnyvale CA who I've seen for 20 years, and I told him about this man. He new exactly who I was talking about. He has no bedside manner at all.

TLDR - these guys are great, and you will be in good hands should you choose them.
The office is easy to find, and there's a parking lot next to the building.
Everything was clearly laid out- cost, instructions, and what to expect before, during, and after the surgery. This is usually done at the consultations which cost $75 which was deducted from the cost of my surgery.
They were very attentive and called to check-in regularly.
The day after my surgery I was goofing around and got hit in my - just had surgery - eye. It was late, but the Dr. returned my call right away, reassured

Dr. Levin is a wonderful physician who is honest and skillful.
I received upper eye filler to correct an even eyelid fold. Results were great!
Recovery was a bit more stressful than I anticipated due to swelling (which is normal for this area). Office staff was very helpful and guided me every step of the way.
It has been over 6 months and the results are still fantastic.
Thanks Dr. Levin for your impeccable expertise and providing me with an affordable solution that didn't involve going under the knife :)

Extremely impressed with the integrity and professionalism of Dr. Levin and his office manager.
I went to his office in Sept with a number of issues, he listened patiently, asked questions to ensure that we were talking about the same thing, and gave thorough answers. He was cautious and conservative and professional in his approach. For one matter, he even took the trouble to print out an article about women in S. Korea undergoing both surgical and non-surgical procedures to get what I complain of -- they consider it a sign of youth. (Maybe I should move to Korea?)
I find him a most ethical

Dr. Levin helped undo the damage caused by another physician. I was in a lot of pain in both eyes, and Dr. Levin squeezed me in the same day that I called. He spent a lot of time assessing my situation, then did a simple in-office procedure that significantly reduced the pain in my eyes. He even called me on the weekend to give me an additional tip to help reduce the pain.
I am truly grateful that Dr. Levin was willing to jump in and fix another doctor's mess, squeeze me in as soon as possible, and let me know that he would do all he could to help me. Dr. Levin's staff are also very

5 stars plus for Dr.Levin, nurse Jennifer & receptionist Cindra!! He was highly recommended by my opthalmologist friend who said Dr. Levin is very experienced & respected by his peers. I had elective Asian upper blepharoplasty in 2015 & a small touch up within a year (included in fee); local anesthesia & awake during surgery.
No pain postop.
Dr. Levin & his staff are patient,caring, reassuring, honest, & easy to talk to about questions & concerns. He is conservative in not removing too much skin initially & can always touch up later if needed after eyelids have

Dr Peter Levin and his staff are so professional and kind. I have had two DCR's and they went smoothly. Dr. Levin explored all options before we did the surgery to unblock my tear duct. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Levin as a professional doctor and his staff are so caring and knowledgeable. I highly recommend his services and feel confident you will get the results or recommendation needed. I referred him to a girlfriend for plastic surgery and she was also very pleased. We are lucky to him located in the bay area.

Short and sweet: one of the most honest plastic and skilled plastic surgeons out here. I trusted him with an upper eyelid blepharoplasty and he delivered. He could have sold me more but gave me an honest consultation and the result is natural. Loved the whole staff and recommend his skills and advice.

Funny - I thought maybe my experience was unique. I had a rather simple procedure to have done and needed to consult with him first. After the meeting I had to struggle with why I need to deal with him in the first place. Just because my optometrist referred me?! Nope...
He was a bit abrasive, a bit condescending, he baited me with the "do you have any concerns" question. Ok, well since you asked, I voiced the usual concerns any pre op patient would ask. He immediately said there is no responsibility on his behalf, and I really got the impression he couldn't be bothered. (Beyond

I had a consultation with a different doctor. I really didn't like they way they handled my consultation and billing. My ophthalmologist gave me another referral for Dr. Levin for entropion surgery. I wanted my surgery to be done by someone who was well known and had experience working on Asian eyes.
Consultation/Pre-op:
The consultation was very easy. I told him about the problems I have with my eye and what my ophthalmologist and I hope to accomplish with entropion surgery. Dr. Levin explained the procedure, told me what to expect and allowed me to ask questions. Eye things freak me

I honestly cannot speak highly enough of Dr Levin and the practice. I was recently diagnosed with a melanoma on my eyelid and have just been through surgery to remove the lesion and reconstructive surgery with Dr Levin.
He has been kind, patient, sympathetic and probably most importantly there when I really needed him.
During the initial phase of discussion and understandable emotion, he maintained a very calm but realistic outlook and showed much compassion and understanding for the situation. I noted some other comments about his style - but although he can be a little quirky - I think this
