It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Anida Baftjari, a remarkable woman who has been a beloved provider of cosmetic services in our Staten Island office for 21 years.

Dr. Anida received her medical degree from the University of Medicine Tirana in Albania, where she graduated with honors. Upon moving to the United States, Anida found great satisfaction continuing her career in the medical field. She was thrilled to discover all of the ways she could help patients look and feel better with various cosmetic treatments.

Dr. Baftjari’s life was a canvas of dedication and service, not only to her patients but to her loved ones. Her interests were as wide-ranging as her expertise, from the tranquility of gardening, to the joy of cooking, each hobby was an extension of her love for life and her desire to enrich the lives of those around her. Researching was not just a professional requirement but a passion, as she continually sought to expand her knowledge and leverage it for the betterment of others.

Anida’s life is an example of living with purpose, loving without reservation, and giving without expectation. She will be thoroughly missed.
