Dr. Jeffrey S. Yager

You could say Dr. Jeffrey Yager’s surgical niche is more than just the procedures he performs, it also encompasses the community that he caters to. “I wouldn’t call it a niche, I think of it more as a calling,” says the doctor. “I am a non-Hispanic board-certified plastic surgeon, who is fluent in Spanish, and 95 percent of my patients are Hispanic. Every laser, product, treatment and procedure we offer is specifically geared toward Latin skin types.” With a fully bilingual staff, specially selected treatments and skin care, and a 6,000 square-foot facility complete with an AAAASF-accredited surgical center, he has made a special commitment to provide his patients with the latest and safest modalities to treat all of their aesthetic needs. “I don’t consider myself an expert solely because I speak Spanish,” he adds. “It’s my passion to understand the cultural ideals and differences in skin types required to get the best results. This expertise is why I’ve even had colleagues of Hispanic heritage refer their patients to me.”
