While all the answers here are great and most work very well, there is a slightly simpler method which achieves the same effect...

For Push:

  NextViewController *nextViewController = [[NextViewController alloc] init];

  // Shift the view to take the status bar into account 
  CGRect frame = nextViewController.view.frame;
  frame.origin.y -= 20;
  frame.size.height += 20;
  nextViewController.view.frame = frame;

  [UIView transitionFromView:self.navigationController.topViewController.view toView:nextViewController.view duration:0.5 options:UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionFlipFromRight completion:^(BOOL finished) {
    [self.navigationController pushViewController:nextViewController animated:NO];
  }];

For Pop:

  int numViewControllers = self.navigationController.viewControllers.count;
  UIView *nextView = [[self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:numViewControllers - 2] view];

  [UIView transitionFromView:self.navigationController.topViewController.view toView:nextView duration:0.5 options:UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionFlipFromLeft completion:^(BOOL finished) {
    [self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:NO];
  }];}
