Patient care is and always will be his number one priority.
Dr. Hochstein is ABPS (American Board of Plastic Surgery) board certified physician. Since establishing his thriving plastic surgery practice, Dr. Hochstein has performed over twelve thousand surgeries. He was even awarded Allergan’s Black Diamond Award, which is only granted to the highest level breast augmentation providers.
Over 15 years of training and experience have provided Dr. Hochstein with the skills necessary to achieve countless beautiful and natural surgical results on nearly all areas of the body.
