Physician Personal Statement
My practice philosophy is to help my patients achieve their goals. If I can't do it, I will try to find someone who could. If a procedure is too risky, we will find an alternative.
My patient coordinators and I will take the necessary time to educate you on the specific procedures, and inform you of your options. We want you to have a positive and a safe experience.
Once you step into our office, you'll quickly realize that we set a high standard for patient care in Plastic Surgery.
