Dr Gordon M. Kaplan, MD
Dr Gordon Kaplan founded The Kaplan Center to provide leading care for patients seeking plastic or reconstructive surgery.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Dr. Kaplan changed my life. He is a doctor who cares and is compassionate! He is not only a MD, he is an artist. He performed liposuction to my abdomen, back and flanks. He is great, and the staff are super friendly and accommodating.
Review from Mel B
After working with two different estheticians, I decided to make the switch to Dr. Kaplan. I seriously love his work and the way he operates. He works with you to achieve the results you want and has so much knowledge and experience.
Review from Sutton Smith
Nurse Crystina is the best injector I’ve ever been to. I’ve had some filler in the past on my lips and smiley lines that had migrated and was starting to look very unnatural. Her first recommendation was to have it dissolved and refilled in the right places.
