Dr. Gerald J. Wittenberg

Grateful Thank You
I had jaw surgery this year and I had to express my gratitude. I have had alot of bad experiences with surgeons as I've had some botched surgery in the past so going into jaw surgery you could imagine how scared I was especially knowing how big this surgery would be for me. I am happy I was able to find Dr. Wittenburg. My dentist actually referred me to someone local in my city but I refused and wanted to go to the best of the best. I remember the first time I talked to him I could tell immeditely how knowledgable he was. I have a deep appreciation for those who are so incredibly smart. I felt like he was a professor when he spoke. I also did not go into the surgery blindly I did alot of research and was prepared for the worst pain In my life but after my surgery was done I could not believe how I literally felt pain free. The moment I woke up my throat was sore due to the breathing tube they had to use but other than that no pain. Even the following days no pain I was so prepared to feel horrible but it was so easy. Out of all my surgeries I've done this was so peaceful. Swelling was crazy my mom loved how chubby my face looked haha. But don't worry you look like a potato for a little bit but by one month you look completely normal. I also never lost any weight during my recovery I made sure to eat alot of calories and keep my body healthy to aid in healing. I am immensely grateful for Dr wittenburg and can't thank him enough. Also I have to mention how Wittenburg was extremely kind towards me. Through the whole experience and after he cared (something I sadly have never felt with any other surgeon) he really is so knowledgeable I can't emphasize this enough. I understand alot of patients don't want to share their experience /name or photos as it's a very private procedure and not something you want ppl to know you have had done but I think it's very important for me to share my experience. I want to help those really who are contemplating orthodontic jaw surgery he's the best.

My twin sister had jaw surgery and a genioplasty with Dr. Wittenberg and couldn’t be happier with the results post op. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr Wittenberg myself at her follow up appointment and he was absolutely lovely. His expertise is very apparent and he could easily identify ways he could help me with my own concerns. I definitely recommend him and feel very comfortable knowing I’m in good hands.

Dr. Wittenberg removed two of my wisdom teeth, and one of them was in my jaw nerve. It took only 20 min. I felt nothing, no bleeding, and to be honest, super professional. It was way easier than I thought.

Excellent. I went for a consultation because I had eyebags and Dr Wittenberg took time to show me the reason and how my face was changing with age. He easily showed me that raising my cheekpad and contouring the eyebags was the most effective treatment and not just removing fat like I had thought. He went through pros and cons and incisions and recovery including expected bruises. I had the surgery with sedation and did experience the bruises around the eyes but after a couple of weeks I could easily see the big difference. A few more months later and I became even more impressed as not only were the bags gone but my cheeks looked great blending in. No pain, just swelling and glad I did it

I always had a small chin and I wanted to get a better profile especially since I was moving away. I researched a lot and Dr Wittenberg had so many amazing photos on his site and great experiences. I started with a telephone consultation and they were so friendly and gave me lots of information based upon some pictures I sent along. I visited Dr Wittenberg and he was so welcoming and went over my structure and we talked about a few options for me. I decided to go full tilt and get a new jawline and it was my best decision ever made. Surgery was booked and the staff were great and my recovery was as they had told me with a couple of weeks. He said it takes months for the final result but I was happy after the first week. I had no problems and now I look in the mirror and compare to old pictures and cannot imagine why I had not done it sooner. Great office and great surgeon.

Why did I wait so long? Like many of us aging folks I was hesitant about improving my aging neck which I have wanted to do for so long. Plenty of excuses for sure but Dr Wittenberg made them all go away once I consulted with him. Great bedside manner and really nice friendly staff took away my anxieties within minutes it seemed. Never rush you but give you plenty of information and I am forever greatful for my younger face. I think I look better than ever but confidence will do that, and a few good compliments from my family didnt hurt either. No pain either which surprised me and only 2 weeks later I was plenty recovered and smiling away. Very good office and obviously amazing surgeon with hugh experience in face surgery.

My neck my jawline and my confidence are so pleased I found Dr Wittenberg. A very positive office before during and after my surgery and such a calm soft spoken friendly Dr Wittenberg made my experience and more importantly, my result so great. You know when your aging neck all of a sudden shows up and it took me a few years to finally deal with it. But now that I have my lovely neck and jawline I cannot smile too much and I have stopped covering my neck on Zoom! Amazing. Saw the result Day 1 and it got better from there. Highest of high recommendation.

I paid $100 for a consultation last year, and they promised they would get back to me with a mock up of before and after pics. I called every week for 4 weeks and they kept saying it would be a couple days more. That was February 2020. I have heard no word from them since. I also never met Gerald in my consultation, I only met a different woman doctor, I don't remember her name. It wasn't communicated to me that I wouldn't be meeting Gerald before hand. I do remember her laughing at one of my serious questions though. I saw that Gerald was being sued by multiple people, so I stopped calling and emailing for a response. And I never got one.

His expertise in facial surgery is amazing. Some time ago, I had eyelid surgery with Dr Wittenberg and over time I wanted to also do my chin. I knew he would be the one for me since he is the only surgeon who posts so many pictures and does such natural work on the face. The surgery was in his OR and really quick and I took about 10 days to get back to social work life. I love my chin which was a genioplasty and not an implant since he explained how an implant is not good for this area in my case. Anyway, another successful result for me. Great office

When I was younger, I had jaw surgery with Dr Wittenberg and my whole family was very impressed with him and the result. So when I wanted some cosmetic surgery done, it was natural to seek him out for a consultation. He hasn't changed from what I remember. He is soft spoken friendly and takes his time to explain everything to you. He has these amazing blue eyes which I remembered too since wearing masks makes it all the more focused. After talking to him and his super staff I had a necklift and cheekpad lift which made a world of difference to how I felt. It has been months since surgery and I am ever so happy about how I look. I feel confident and know that I have gone to the best! Dr Wittenberg is a gem and a rare surgeon with the talent and bedside manner combo.

They should change the name of his clinic to Faces Only. What a talented doctor! My story is like others where I found myself suddenly looking much older than I felt and decided at long last to do something about it. So how does one go about it. Well I looked at pictures of past patients for a natural non Hollywood look and Dr Wittenberg is bar none the one to see. The consultation sealed it for me since he was so honest and relaxed and you just knew he was that experienced surgeon who understood what I wanted and never suggested more that what we talked about. The surgery to make me years younger seemed like minutes due to the sedation and recovery was pretty much as they told me. About 2 weeks to feel normal and I even looked pretty good if I don't say so myself. The staff is encouraging and always answers any little question and I had a bunch. I really love my look and love putting on makeup like I did when I was younger since I feel that way now. My neck is gorgeous and I have my jawline back. Dr Wittenberg is stupendous.

I had some surgery a few years ago with Dr Wittenberg with tremendous results and had been wanting to do something about my cheekbones since then. I saved up and went back to see him and he was the same friendly approach with the same striking blue eyes! We talked more about the cheekbone area and he gave me a few choices including filler or a permanent result and both of us preferred long term one time treatment. The surgery was inside the mouth and pretty easy compared to my last jaw treatment. The swelling was a bother but it has been several months now and it sure looks good if I do say so myself. The followup was very reassuring from the office and it really does help to answer questions. That's it for now for surgery but I guess looking at my parents I will be back to see this artistic surgeon one day.

I was referred to Dr Wittenberg by my orthodontist for jaw surgery to fix my overbite and small jaw. The office is very nice and the staff is friendly and Dr Wittenberg was very welcoming and took time to tell me about my face and bite problem. He went over the pros and cons very well and I had questions prepared and he took time to answer all of them. This was a while back but I still recall feeling very safe and in the right place. My orthodontist said he was the very best in BC and had the most experience of anyone. About a year later I had the surgery and it was really not a big deal as I had thought and because I was not wired and could talk I was able to recover super quick with a brand new bite and a new jawline too. I had no complications at all and my orthodontist said the result was perfect. I highly recommend Dr Wittenberg.

I had always hated my family double double chin and it took long time to do something and once I did it was amazing to feel like my family curse was gone. Dr Wittenberg and his really nice staff made it easy and like they cared about me and even why I wanted to do it. I had seen other doctors but they did not spend much time and also said I should do a chin implant which I did not like to do. I am so happy I did the liposuction under my chin.for you to know it is not painful at all and I saw the result iright away which was great. I had so good instructions from Dr Wittenberg and they were right. Very happy customer.
