“wonderful experience everyone answered all my questions and i love my new breasts”
Wellesley Cosmetic Surgery - 332 Washington St. Suite 340
Dr. Shektman is a professional and courteous doctor who I came to trust implicitly. I had a ton of questions and he was always willing and available to answer any questions or concerns I may have. I did my own research and I chose Dr. Shektman based on his experience but what sealed the deal was when I met him in person and we discussed what I wanted to have done and what my options were. I came to him for a second opinion. After speaking and meeting with Dr. Shektman there was no doubt in my mind that he was the right doctor for my procedures. I asked many questions and he answered every one of them in detail so I knew exactly what he was going to go and what results I could expect. I had been told by a previous doctor I could not achieve the results I wanted. After seeing Dr. Shektman I knew I could not only achieve the results I wanted but I ended up receiving results that were beyond my expectations. I had such a great experience that I have had 2 procedures done with him and I have another scheduled procedure with him in a month or so. I can't imagine going to any other doctor. He has a great bedside manner and he is willing to take the time to make sure that his patients understand what to expect during the procedures and after. He has not only changed my body but he has changed my life and the way I feel about myself. I would never consider going to any other doctor for a cosmetic procedure. He is truly a craftsman and a perfectionist and you will not be disappointed in any surgical procedure you have with Dr. Shektman.
“This was my first plastic surgery experience I've had. There are no words that can describe how happy I am with my results and the professionalism and kindness Dr. Shektman has had with me through my experience. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Shektman!”

Felt very comfortable during all of my visits with Dr. Skektman and his staff. There were times were I was running late to an appointment due to traffic, and there were times I had to reschedule because of work, and they were always willing to work with me.

I finally did what I was thinking about for a half decade. I had a facelift with Wellesley Cosmetic Surgery. Dr. Shektman was my surgeon. He did a wonderful piece of very delicate surgery. The procedure was painless and I was out and about getting compliments ten days post operative. Three months later and I believe it was the best decision I ever made was to have this surgery. The office staff as well as Dr. Shejtman were exceptional in every way. I receive so many compliments. I am a new and happy woman. My advice is if you are thinking about facelift sugery do it. You too will be a new and happier woman,
“I am a new woman”
Wellesley Cosmetic Surgery - 332 Washington St. Suite 340
From the first appointment, I felt comfortable and confident with Dr Shektman. As with any surgery, I was a little nervous when the surgery date was upon me. But that nervousness lasted about 30 seconds after I entered his office. Everyone involved in my care were wonderful..caring and professional. My results were great..Dr Shektman took alot of time explaining the procedure, risks...etc. Scheduling my follow ups were a breeze. I have had no complications and my breasts look great.
“Amazing people and amazing results!!!”
Wellesley Cosmetic Surgery - 332 Washington St. Suite 340
I was referred to Dr. Shektman from a close friend who also had a breast augmentation procedure. My entire experience from initial consulation to surgery to both follow-up appointments was excellent. Dr. Shektman is professional, warm and kind and made me feel so comfortable from start to finish. I walked into my consulation appointment very insecure with my body and walked out of my 6 week post-op visit a new confident woman! I highly recommend Dr. Shektman and will be returning in the future if I ever feel like I need a surgical confidence booster again!
“Couldn't be happier with my results! ”
