James M. Nachbar, MD, FACS: Scottsdale Plastic Surgery

Dr. Nachbar really takes the time to hear you out in what your desires are. I am an out of state patient that is looking to do tattoo excision surgery. We proceeded to do a virtual consultation first so that we are taking the necessary steps before my first in person visit to Scottsdale. He makes sure to let you know what is possible and wants you to feel your best! This could not be done without one of Dr. Nachbar’s patient coordinators, Daisy. Daisy is the absolute sweetest and has the best attitude! She is great with communication(s), letting you know all the information about the procedure, and more! I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Dr. Nachbar and his team! I have had a great experience thus far and am positively excited for the rest of the process ahead!

I’m very pleased with my experience at Dr. Nachbar Plastic Surgery. The team has been professional, communicative, and helpful throughout the entire process. I was very nervous before my tattoo excision, but Chloe really helped ease my nerves and kept me distracted during the procedure, which made me feel a lot more comfortable. Even though I’m still healing, I’m already very happy with the results and you can barely tell there was a tattoo there. Overall, I’m really happy with how they do business and would definitely recommend them.

Great experience! Dr. Nachbar is very professional, knowledgeable, and takes time to explain everything clearly. The staff is friendly and made me feel comfortable throughout. Highly recommend!

Amazing surgeon. From start to finish it was a great experience. He knew exactly what I wanted and led me through things every step of the way. 1 month post op and very happy with the results!

Always a great experience with the team at Dr. Nachbar's surgery

It’s hard to put into words my experience with Dr. Nachbar and his practice. I was referred by a close friend and scheduled a consult. Scheduling consultations with many offices can be difficult, expensive, and overwhelming, but scheduling with Dr. Nachbar was simple and I did it directly on his website.
From my initial consult, Dr. Nachbar was patient, listened carefully to my overall goals, and answered all of my many questions. His focus is truly on you, the patient. Not once have I felt rushed, even after numerous appointments. His office staff is kind, knowledgeable, and responsive.
After my initial appointment, I didn’t feel the need to consult with any other surgeons. Between my initial consult and scheduling my surgery, almost 11 months passed. It’s a big decision, and I took time to think before feeling ready to commit. When I returned for my second consult, it felt like no time had passed at all and we picked up right where we left off, and I scheduled my surgery.
I had a 360 tummy tuck, breast lift, and augmentation, and I honestly can’t think of a single thing I would change about my results. I stayed overnight in the surgery center, and the nurses were kind, patient, and made sure I was fully prepared for my first day at home. I feel so good in my own skin and yet, still feel like myself.
Dr. Nachbar makes it very clear that he is always available for questions or concerns and that he’s just a phone call away. He is also extremely thorough in educating his patients on what to expect throughout the entire process.
I am now five weeks post-op, and each day my recovery gets better. Plastic surgery is an art, and Dr. Nachbar is a master of his craft. He is deeply invested in his patients’ results, and I truly believe it brings him joy to see them happy. It feels more like a calling for him than a career.

It was a leap of faith entrusting Dr. Nachbar with my facelift procedure, but I am so glad I did! I knew nothing about him except he had exceptional credentials and years of experience. He was recommended by some members of a Facebook nurse group and that, for me, meant a lot. When I met with him, I found him and his staff to be friendly and welcoming. He was not a big talker but in discussing my options I felt he was confident, cautious and realistic. Having been a nurse for over 40 years, I really appreciated this about him. I made my decision quickly after that first consultation. His staff was incredible in guiding me through every step. No question was left unanswered. I was presented with the most thorough pre- and post -op instructions I've ever had which also included education on his surgical approach. After my surgery, his skill and attention to detail was evident. After two weeks the incisions were so unnoticeable I had to point them out to my friends and even another physician. I am now 3 weeks out and I couldn't be happier with the results. I am over the moon! There is still some swelling but no one but me can really tell. The incisions are nearly healed completely. This whole experience has been wonderful and exciting, and I can't thank Dr. Nachbar and his staff enough. This man is talented!

It's been awhile since I've seen Dr. Nachbar, I only saw him for in office aesthetic procedures. And I will say, I wouldn't go to anyone else, when it comes to that area of expertise. Conservative yet understands the desired results, client is hoping for. My opinion only. All the office staff that I interacted with were always pleasant.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Nachbar since 2008 and have seen him several times over the years. Recently, I needed a surgical consultation for my insurance, and he was the only doctor I trusted to help guide such an important decision.

After carefully reviewing my situation, Dr. Nachbar advised that surgery would be risky and not medically necessary in my case. His honesty and patient-first approach meant a great deal to me.

Dr. Nachbar’s integrity and professionalism are truly exceptional. It’s clear that he prioritizes the well-being of his patients above all else. I’m very grateful to have access to his knowledge, experience, and thoughtful care.

I have been a patient of Dr. James Nachbar for over 23 years, and I can say without hesitation that he is an exceptional surgeon and professional. When you have a medical history with a doctor spanning more than two decades, you truly get to know the caliber of their work and their character. There are three specific reasons why I continue to trust him with my care: He Truly Listens: Dr. Nachbar takes the time to understand my specific goals. No matter how challenging or complex a request might be, he listens with intent and works tirelessly to find a path to accomplish it. A Stellar Team: His staff is the gold standard of professionalism. They are consistently respectful, kind, and—most importantly—they pay close attention to the individual needs of the patient. You never feel like "just a number" in his office. He Delivers: Results matter. Dr. Nachbar combines technical mastery with a genuine commitment to his patients. In every procedure and interaction, he has consistently delivered exactly what was promised. If you are looking for a doctor who is grounded, highly skilled, and backed by a supportive team, I cannot recommend Dr. Nachbar highly enough.
