Dr Applebaum is very friendly, professional and thorough. He took his time to answer all my questions and ease my concerns. He did my upper eyelid Ptosis surgery and I love the outcome- it looks amazing. I am scheduling him to do my lower eyelids. He is a 'can't miss' type of Doctor.

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
