Daryl K. Hoffman, MD

Dr. Hoffman performed lipo on my abdomen and thighs. I had a very heavy bottom and thighs that went in and out. The surgery and healing went remarkably well. I recovered from full anesthesia with no nausea. My body fully mobile in the evening after the surgery, I was fully recovered in under two weeks. Orla helped me feel comfortable and confident whenever I visited the office for pre-​consultation as well as after the surgery. All of the staff from anesthesiologist to the nurses were incredibly helpful, warm, kind and utterly professional. If I was to go and have a new type of other plastic surgery Dr. Hoffman would be the one I would go to. He is very honest and incredibly experienced. His attention to detail is off the charts. He really is a great professional who does what he does because he loves to help women feel more confident and beautiful with minimum invasion, while unveiling their natural beauty and grace.

«Perfect in each and every way» is how I describe his practice.
I am absolutely in love with my results.
Doctor Hoffman is extremely skilled and knowledgable. The entire staff are doing an amazing job and his surgery center is state of the art and he is the one and only.

I will save you a lot of homework: Go with Dr. Hoffman.
No need to give yourself the same headache I went through in researching; fishing through all reviews and all procedures and all doctors, and then still worrying you did not find the right one. I live in the central valley but I went to Dr. Hoffman because his track record is so good; he has outstanding credentials.
Here was my list to look for, in order of importance:
1) Board Certified Plastic surgeon
2) Education of surgeon
3) Experience of surgeon
4) Hospital qualification
5) Location of surgeon (is he close enough to me?)
6) Price of procedure
For me, the research to narrow it down took months, but I can see that Hoffman’s other patients found what I found: he is the best around. The office staff was always excellent to me. I was driving up from Fresno and the drive would wear me down but they always offered me a bottle of water for the road, and they asked how my trip had been and they wished me well, after each appointment.
The staff in this office are friendly, patient, helpful, amazing. Orla Cloherty explained everything to me. She walked me through every step, and she answered my many emails promptly. She was wonderful.
The surgeon is the key person to make your surgery a success, and Dr. Hoffman is the best! He did such a great job on my midsection lipo. I am getting plenty of compliments! So glad I went here!

I had a breast reduction in ¹²⁄₁₅ due to back/​shoulder pain, poor self image and athletic lifestyle. The pain and recovery time was not as bad as I anticipated and I am back to normal activities after one month and anticipating buying first bras in about 2 more weeks. I asked for as small as he could go without removal of nipples and he took me from an F to and A/​B. I would have done it years ago had I known that I would look so much thinner and feel so good. Dr. Hoffman is professional and honest. I highly recommend him for a breast reduction.

I was referred to Dr. Hoffman by a friend who had a procedure done by him in the past.
Prior to the referral, I had done a lot of research on plastic surgeons in the local area. I went into several consultations, but felt either the doctors weren’t confident in what I wanted, or the office staff were thoroughly rude.
The day of my consultation with Dr. Hoffman in his Palo Alto office, I was greeted by a very friendly Ashleigh whom had my paperwork ready for me to complete. Soon after, I was escorted by another friendly staff member to the exam room. While I waited for the doctor, Karen walked in. She certainly sensed my anxiousness and helped calm my nerves in guiding me prior to seeing the doctor.
When Dr. Hoffman entered the room we discussed my goals and his areas of expertise. He was very confident in his work, and I felt very comfortable with his calm demeanor.
Karen and I discussed dates as I scheduled my procedure.
It has been since September when Dr. Hoffman took care of me. I’ve had 2 follow-​up appointments and the girls are always such a joy when I visit. Dr. Hoffman has been amazing and is very talented & honest in his skills. Thank you all in Dr. Hoffman’s office!

I’m on my fourth week recovery from a tummy tuck/​breast augmentation performed by Dr.Hoffman.
The day of surgery I was very nervous but his team did an amazing job keeping me calm and positive.
The day after surgery I was in minimal pain and Dr. Hoffman was on call ²⁴⁄₇ for anything I may need.
I am so pleased and happy with the results, he has magical hands and has done an amazing job, the progress of my recovery has me and my husband beyond impressed. I highly recommend Dr.Hoffman.
Thank you Dr. Hoffman for making me feel beautiful again I would give you 100 stars if I could, I am excited for this new journey in my life. Words can’t express how grateful I am. Thank you.

My breasties, my besties.
100% experience all the way around.
No need for more words.

Liz at Dr. Hoffman a office is an amazing person. I set up a Botox appointment an she was kind an explained everything in detail to me before I decided to get the procedure. She was patient an didn’t rush me at all. She was great all around. It’s been almost 2 weeks an the results are amazing.!! I’m so happy! Thank you again Dr. Hoffman for excellent service an a great staff (like Liz) who was on point without a doubt! Love these people!!! I will always recommend Dr. Hoffman.

Usually people hope they will look better soon after this type of surgery, I just hope it will stay the way it is!
Very professional, great office, the Best results!
Very happy patient /​for many years /​of Dr. Hoffman

Great doctor. Nice facility. Worked around our tough schedule. Did Lipo. Results are wonderful. Minimal discomfort. Good followup. Just a nice guy too. And fair price based upon a couple other consults.
Highly recommend.

My experience with Dr. Hoffman has been incredible! I had made a consultation back in 2008 when I was first interested in receiving a breast reduction. Not only was his work on the female breast a piece of art, he also made me feel extremely comfortable to bare all for the consultation. Shortly after I was laid off and had to put the surgery on hold. Fast forward to August 2014. Went back to see Dr. Hoffman (because why go anywhere else? I was sold!) Staff in the office was extremely friendly btw! Meet with Dr. Hoffman to get the procedure going once again. Had the breast reconstructive surgery to my right breast on August 14^th. I was a bit nervous that day but again he made me feel very comfortable putting my life (and boob) in his hands :) The surgery was to correct a 3 cup larger size difference between my two breast. Not only did he make it PERFECT the incisions were super clean! It’s been a little over a month since surgery and I couldn’t be more happy! In fact I haven’t felt this incredible about myself in over 16yrs! So yeah he definitely deserves 5 stars and then some! My whole life feels brand new… I’d run around naked if it were legal lol :)

My wife had breast augmentation with Dr Hoffman and he did an excellent job. His staff and he were very attentive to her and met multiple times both before and after so that she was happy. Dr Hoffman was very professional, warm and listened and answered all of her questions and concerns. We researched many different surgeons and found his prices to be competitive with the others and his method of going through the armpit was the deciding factor, which my wife is very happy about having done and left almost zero scar tissue. It has been over half a year since the operation and she is very happy with everything.

Dr. Hoffman exceeded my expectations. He is extremely knowledgeable in what he is doing and gives great advice so you are happy with the outcome. Because I am young and unsure of what I was getting myself into, my mom (who is a nurse) helped with researching doctors and sure enough we were referred to Dr. Hoffman by another doctor from my mom’s work. I was very nervous for my procedure until his staff calmed me down. Everyone employee here is supportive and caring for their patients.
Dr. Hoffman did an outstanding job and I couldn’t be happier with my results. I couldn’t imagine going to anyone but him now and I have referred many friends who are currently setting up appointments to visit him too. If you want the job done correctly and safely, then go visit Dr. Hoffman now!

Dr. Daryl Hoffman was more than amazing. I did my research and had several surgeons in mind but then I was referred to his office by a friend. I loved her breast augmentation because they looked so natural. Anyways, once I had my consultation I decided to go with Dr. Hoffman. His staff was attentive, friendly, personable, and more than happy to help. This positive environment really calmed my anxiety prior to the surgery.
I explained to him exactly what I wanted and he convinced me to go bigger than what I thought I initially wanted. I am so happy I did because I love them now. What’s even more awesome is that I get so many compliments and people can’t even tell that they’re implants. They look and feel natural and I’ve referred several friends to his office. FYI — they decided to go with Dr. Hoffman as well ;) He has the hands of an artist. LOVE IT!

I’ve done lipo here, and after 2 procedures
my flanks still there, and I’m not that big person, 5’3′, 122 lbs.
Also made a mistake of doing Juvederm and Botox that I regret greatly .
I wanted J-​m on my cheeks and B-​x forehead and neck .
The result of these simple procedures, that I’ve successfully done few times before at a different place,
was a month of heavy bruising, and when it was gone, I got my right eye smaller than the other, both eyes inner corner drooped .
The reason was J-​m was injected under my right eye
that I’ve never asked for, supposed to be a cheek !
He realized at the procedure he did it wrong and tried to adjust it down, pulling and squeezing hard, that was where I got all the bruises.
Also Dr. does not have an understanding of how B-​x works,
that’s why I got all the drooping.
What strikes me the most, doctor didn’t even feel bad about what he has done and suggested me to be happy about my smooth forehead, and I didn’t have any =wrinkles in that area, I use B-​x as preventative.
Basically he had no boundaries to say any nonsense he could come up with to defend himself. He issued the full refund though.
I’s been almost 2 months since then and I dread every morning to look into a mirror. Makeup routine that used to take 15 mins, takes now an hour to camouflage results of these treatment, or should I say mistreatment.

I went to Dr. Hoffman for breast augmentation and let me just say… he is AMAZING!
I was referred to him a few years back by a friend and did a consultation. I wasn’t ready at the time but decided to meet with him this year since I was finally committed to finding a doctor. I wanted to do the silicone gel but had a slight issue since they are pre-​filled and had a small areola so I had very few options for insertion. At first he felt that the best way to do it would be to go through the inframammary crease since I was doing a very large implant. I am about 5’8″ with an hourglass shape so I wanted something that would be fitting to my figure. I explained to him that I really did not want my incision to be this way and preferred to go through my underam. Well, Dr. Hoffman ordered a special device called the «Keller Funnel» to do the incision where I wanted it. Let me tell you that this man is a genius! I could not be happier! My breasts are even, proportioned and absolutely beautiful!
I would trust Dr. Hoffman with any surgey that I do. I did meet with other doctors for other consultations before I chose Dr. Hoffman and I’m soo glad I chose to go with him!

I have had both a breast augmentation and a lift done by Dr. Hoffman, as well as some facial injections. Dr. Hoffman is truly an amazing Surgeon/​artist. Both of my procedures came out beautifully!!! He really knows how to sculpt the human body, and takes great time and care with his patients. He was available for all my questions and concerns both day and night before and after my surgery. His entire staff at his office was also very caring, and quick to answer any of my questions. I am a complete perfectionist and have massive anxiety, but I can say with 100% confidence that Dr. Hoffman’s work is PERFECT! And he is there for you after 100%. He really does put his patients first. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!

Dr. Hoffman is a god.
I have had girlfriends that have been «fixed» by his amazing work and recently it was my turn. I had a breast aug with a donut lift and at only 3 weeks post-​op they already look amazing. I couldn’t be happier
His entrie office staff is incredible and made the experience so comfortable and rewarding.

Words can’t even begin to describe what a fantastic doctor, Dr. Daryl Hoffman is. I have been a patient of his since 2001. I would NEVER even DREAM of having anyone but him work on me. He has the hands of an artist and has a way of working absolute magic!
Dr. Hoffman is a very professional, patient, and most of all honest plastic surgeon. He has a way of making you feel so comfortable with the not so comfortable parts you may have. He will always give you his honest opinion and will never advise you of something you do not need.
I have referred family, friends and friends of friends and they all feel the exact same way I do. I am fully confident in his skills as a doctor because I see the results in the mirror everyday!
Whatever procedure you are interested in having, I know hands down Dr. Hoffman is the best around. Look no further you have found the one! It’s now your turn… let the magic begin!!!
