Albert W. Chow, M.D.

I came to Dr. Chow’s office in December 2024 for two cosmetic procedures, and I am very happy with the results! Dr. Chow is a great surgeon. He is trustworthy, professional and knowledgeable in his profession. I truly appreciate the fact that he scheduled follow up appointments to make sure that the recovery process went well. Last but not least, I wanted to express my gratitude to Mrs. Julie Huynh for connecting me with Dr. Chow, walking me through the process (start to finish) and consistently checking in with me post procedures. Dr. Chow is one of the best surgeons in SF. Thank you Dr. Chow and the staff for your extraordinary service!

Overview: I have been going to Dr. Chow and his office since I was a teen, with permission from my mother. I got rhinoplasty when I was 18. I have gotten under eye filler twice, juvederm in my lips and botox on my face. Dr. Chow also performed my breast augmentation about 10 years ago. No one has suspected my breasts aren’t real or anything on my face. I chose a natural yet full look. I went up about 3 cups. They still look great to this day. I will be switching them out soon for the new Motiva implants with Dr. Chow of course. Moving to NY. Even though there is so much competition with beauty, aesthetics, plastic surgery I still will be coming and flying back to see Dr. Chow. He knows my face. At the age of 34 from 17 when I started my consultation for my rhinoplasty that’s hard to compare that many years of experience that he has and trust that I have built with him. I have discussed future procedures and I am excited for new stuff to do. Especially with how much the industry is evolving and advancing. I also have built a very comfortable and personable relationship with Dr. Chow and the team. Jennifer, Debbie and Pat have been there since I was going from the age of 17. They are professional yet personable. It kind of feels like a family to be transparent. They have never tried to sell me on procedures I never needed. In different life stages they've given me great advice. They have seen me running in out of that office from college, post college, different boyfriends you name it. So you see what I mean that it feels like a family. That’s kind of how the office operates. I always look forward to seeing the team and Dr. Chow. He has experience, he’s honest and he keeps it real. He’s very relatable and wants to help you achieve your beauty goal. Jennifer is a great receptionist, she’s like your friend and big sister in one. She has always accommodated me no matter how difficult and tight their office schedule can get. I hope this review helps anyone looking to get a procedure with Dr. Chow. Have ideas of what you want and go into it with the intention that your outcome will be great. I hope you love your new look!

I have been a patient of Dr. Albert Chow for over 10 years, and I can confidently say he is one of the best plastic surgeons out there. His thoroughness and extensive knowledge in cosmetic procedures are truly impressive. Dr. Chow is incredibly detailed and takes the time to listen to his patients’ needs. He has performed various procedures on me, and I trust him completely! Without a doubt, there is no one else I would consider for my cosmetic needs other than Dr. Chow. I give him 5+++ stars!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Albert Chow for over 10 years! He is literally the best plastic surgeon in SF & as a nurse I’ve worked for many. He has an incredible eye for detail and an honest, conservative approach that I really appreciate. He is amazing at Botox, filler, and as a plastic surgeon! Trust him completely. What sets Dr. Chow apart is that he tells you what you actually need (and more importantly, what you don’t). He’s never pushy, always thoughtful, and truly wants the best outcome for his patients. It’s rare to find a plastic surgeon with both aesthetic artistry and integrity, and I trust him completely. I wouldn’t go to anyone else in SF! Dr Chow is the best!

Dr. Chow is sincerely collaborative, genuine, comforting, and great at what he does! I came into his office not knowing exactly what I wanted, but he patiently answered my questions, laid out my options, and let me make my decision without any clear influence. I loved working with him. I also LOVE my chin. It is super subtle, looks incredibly natural, and my recovery was really predictable and easy. Overall, I cannot recommend him enough! Such a sincerely kind, knowledgeable, and skilled doctor.
