Office staff is pleasant and consultation was very informative. - My contact with the office staff was very pleasant, they were able to answer questions and scheduled my initial consultation without any problems. I came in for the consultation and left feeling like I had everything I needed to make a well information decision. The whole experience from start to finish went smoothly and thus far I'm happy with the outcome. More

Excellent, Talented Surgeon - Dr. Fernau performed a rhinoplasty, septoplasty, and otoplasty on me. I am extremely happy with the result. In addition to being extremely talented, he is also very big on patient safety and I would recommend him 1000%. The office staff were always very kind and willing to answer any questions. More

Five Stars - Dr. Fernau is both personable and achieves excellent outcomes. I couldn't be happier with the transformation my skin has had under his care. I have had very deep acne scars most of my life. The procedures did not hurt and I was awake during them. I can't express enough how incredibly happy I am with the ease of recovery and overall results. The improvement in my skin is drastic. It has truly helped my self confidence. I highly recommend Dr. Fernau! More

Dr. Fernau and his incredible team made my experience as wonderful as it could be. I traveled from out of country - emails, skype consults, and finally a face to face the day before surgery (which was so convenient and efficient). Dr. Fernau's office staff helped me with transportation to and from the hospital and follow-up visits - I couldn't have asked for better and more sincere care. More

I am 22 years old, and my husband and myself had been shopping for the right doctor to perform my Brazilian Butt Lift. We had been to every office in Pittsburgh, and saved Dr. Fernau's office last, because I was highly impressed with his previous work in Brazil. His consult was so outstanding, that we scheduled my surgery before leaving his office. The technology he used during his consult was the best I had seen, not to mention I could really tell that he was passionate about his work. He referred to what he did as "art" instead of surgery. The fact that the doctor himself was there to answer all my question really impressed me, since all of my other consult's were with an LPN or a doctor's consult manager. I was so nervous, and Dr. Fernau literally made me feel so confident by the time of my appointment date. He even gave me his personal cell phone number if I had any questions before or after! What surgeon do you know, does that? He told me at the consult he sees his patients as his children, and he was not lying! He was always there to answer any questions or give any suggestions, and even supplied a health routine (with vitamins, probiotics, and dietary suggestions) for me to follow prior and after surgery as to see that I will have top notch results and to help my body heal faster. During my research on Dr. Fernau I was impressed to see his work on patient safety, his advanced education, and the world wide recognition his name holds in the plastic surgery world. He is one of the only doctor's who has the advanced technology of the HydroSolve, that he used to take out the fat in my abdominal and hip rolls and place into my buttocks. The HydroSolve alone, if you are looking into this surgery, and you don't know about it; please do yourself the favor and do some research on how advanced this machine is and how lucky you'd be to have your surgery done using this machine. The HydroSolve machine combined with Dr. Fernau's excellent skills and extremely caring and professional staff; I am beyond happy with my experience and even happier with my results. I love how he sculpted my body! In fact my husband and I decieded to also commit to having my boob job, as well as laser hair removal done at Dr. Fernau's office as well. I truely feel like family when I come to his office, and each visit feels so comforting, yet professional. After consulting with each plastic surgeon in Pittsburgh, PA I am so happy that I found and stuck with Dr. Fernau. Hands down best experience ever. They made sure I was confident, happy, healthy, and most importantly safe from beginning to end of my BBL procedure. 10 out of 10 stars awesome! More

Dr. Fernau has performed multiple surgeries on me and my results were excellent! He has so many positive reviews and while waiting in his waiting area there were so many positive comments about him as a doctor. He has won multiple top Dr. awards in Pittsburgh and in Pennsylvania and nationally. I saw that he was featured in Newsweek for one of his facelifts he performed and for performing an incredible surgery to reconstruct the entire scalp for it in place of Evanuick Russian girl. Most importantly he did this at no charge! His staff is wonderful and Dr. Fernau and his entire staff care about my recovery. He also performs laser resurfacing at no additional charge to make sure there is no scar present. No other plastic surgeon does this to my knowledge. He is truly a unique position and will be my plastic surgeon for the rest of my life. More

I had laser scar revision on my leg. The results were fantastic. Dr. Fernau fixed the incision and took care of the nerves that were affected by my accident. I also had laser scar revision on my hand, and he provided free follow ups to ensure that the scar was completely non existent. The staff was incredibly friendly. They all had cheerful tones, and they ensured that I was comfortable. They are all wonderful and sweet. They really care about their patients. I had practically no wait time. I would recommend Dr. Fernau to any friend, and I will keep him as my primary doctor. More

Great doctor. Took care of everything I needed. Takes care of all his clients. He stuck his neck out for me to help me even though he was an out of network Doctor. Bedside manner was one of the best I have dealt with. Actually listens to patients about concerns and other things going on. I have recommended him to anyone and everyone. I will also continue to recommend Dr. James Fernau. His assistant is also very nice upfront and cooperative with everything going on. They both make sure that you are comfortable with everything going on with your medical needs and will explain and do what is needed to get everything done. More

I am now nearly 4 weeks post op after a full abdominoplasty with Dr. James Fernau, and could not be happier with my experience. Dr. James Fernau is a highly skilled surgeon and, perhaps just as important, has an artist's eye for the aesthetic nuance that distinguishes a great abdominplasty from a good one. After interviewing several surgeons, I chose Dr. James Fernau because it was clear that he is meticulous in the extreme. (After he explained -- in intricate detail -- what makes for a natural-looking belly button, I was his.) His staff was lovely and helpful throughout the process, the office always impeccable. The on-site operating room and after-care suite made the whole experience more comfortable and low stress. And my overnight nurse in the after-care suite was truly amazing. My physical results are beyond my expectations. Seriously, the man knows from carving out a sexy stomach. For anyone considering abdominoplasty, I will add that I have had two c-sections, and this was by far more painful and required significantly more time to recover. I had done enough research going in that my expectations were realistic; however I have heard of many people being surprised by the intensity of the aftermath and recovery time. So, just something to keep in mind if you are considering it. I have not had a moment's regret and would certainly recommend Dr. James Fernau to anyone looking for an outstanding surgeon. More

Dr. Fernau and his hair transplant team of Sherry and Bonnie performed a NeoGraft hair transplant and my result is amazing. They told me I would need 2 sessions and I am definitely going to go back and have my second one in a few months. The most amazing thing is I have no incision on the back of my head and I had no pain and my results are incredible and just keep getting better. Dr Fernau is a perfectionist.

Dr. Fernau always took the time to listen to my concerns and explained what he could do to help me. He's always on the cutting edge of new technology and is a leader in his field. His staff is very friendly and helpful during the surgical process. I now have been a patient for many years and have had several large and small procedures performed. I have never felt this confident about myself! My old shy personality is now changed and I'm more outgoing and social. I look and feel better than I did in high school!!! I have always been so happy and pleased with all of my experiences that I have referred many friends and family members. I highly recommend Dr. Fernau for anyone who is looking for a skilled surgeon who treats you more like family than a patient! More

My experience with Dr. Fernau and his staff could not have been better. As a physician, I have heard good things about Dr. Fernau and I would not have had him operate upon me if I did not have the utmost respect for his skills and talent. I had a facelift, neck lift and both eyes done at one time. It was done in his office under sedation which saved me money. I was given adequate post-operative pain medications. In less than 3 weeks, all the discoloration and most of the swelling is gone. I am entirely pleased with the results which should get even better as the residual swelling resolves. The only "sensation" I still have is a feeling of tighness around my face and some numb areas of skin, both of which he told me I would have for several months. Dr. Fernau is a good guy and an even better surgeon and his staff is equally professional. I would highly recommend him to both my family members and patients. More

I searched the Pittsburgh area looking for a plastic surgeon for a tummy tuck. The two doctors that I interviewed did not leave me confident that they would do a good job. Then I found Dr. Fernau on line. His receptionist was very friendly and got me an appointment right away. On the initial visit Dr. Fernau answered all of my questions and showed me pictures of his of his work which looked great. I am now post op 3 months and I am a little sore. I had a wound that needed repaired after the tummy tuck and Dr. Fernau took care of it right away. I would recommend him to family and friends because he is a doctor who is very experienced and you leave with great results. And he and his staff were very professional More

I just had Brazilian Lipoabdominoplasty a week and a half ago. I am so pleased with the results so far and can't wait to see once I am completely healed. The recovery was much easier and quicker then I expected, esp. With two young kids at home. The staff was fantastic, they made me feel very comfortable. I would highly recommend him to any friend or family . I am planning on going back for an additional procedure. More

I went to a consultation appointment for Breast Augmentation Surgery. I met with Dr. Fernau and his wife Sheila. They were so empathetic and kind to me. Sheila made me feel extremely comfortable and said I could call her anytime if I had any questions about my surgery. I did call a few times. The staff is great. They were friendly and always helpful. I would recommend this Surgeon to anybody. I am very happy with my results. More

DR FERNAU AND HIS STAFF WERE KIND, PROFESSIONAL AND VERY CARING. I HAD BOWED LEGS & SEVERELY UNDER DEVELOPED CALVES. DR FERNAU DID DOUBLE LEG IMPLANTS IN EACH LEG. AS A RESULT, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I FEEL CONFIDENT WEARING DRESSES AND SHORTS. I TRUST DR FERNAU AND CONSIDER HIM TO BE A FRIEND. THE AFTER CARE TREATMENT I RECEIVED WAS EXCELLENT AND I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE. More

My breasts are perfect!!! I went from an A to a full C and they really are perfect. Dr. Fernau is so nice and he is such a perfectionist. I have seen 4 of my girlfriends and they all turned out like mine. I have recommended him to friends and family. I am ging to him for the new Aqualipo liposuction in the spring. I see why he was voted a Top Plastic Surgeon in America for 7 years! Love him ! More

I researched Dr. Fernau and his credentials and decided to make a consultation appointment for a nose job. The office staff was wonderful and very caring. During my consultation, you could tell he had 'other' things going on. He seemed very rushed and almost unapproachable. I asked questions and saw before and after photos. I was pleased with what I saw and despite his manner, I booked and had surgery. My results are beautiful. I would recommend him and his qualifications, however, as far as professionalism from the doctor, don't expect it. More
