EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE
As a practice, we are true believers that excellence in performing plastic surgery procedures is derived from both education and experience. We strive to keep current on the latest techniques and standards so we can provide our patients with the safest operations, and the most optimal results. That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking your total health before performing and procedures. We also know that surgery is never routine, no matter how many hundreds of times we have performed such procedures. We never take for granted that you have placed a great deal of confidence in us. For this reason, a review of your medical history, your current health, your expectations for your surgery and your motivations for electing any cosmetic procedure are all taken into consideration before we even agree to perform any procedure.
UNCOMPROMISING SAFETY
Safety, sterilization and infection control is of utmost importance to us. To protect our patients and ourselves, we strictly maintain sterilization and safety standards to ensure you are protected at all times. Our Surgicenter (Ventura Outpatient Surgery) is certified by Medicare and the State of California. The equipment and personell in our operating room refelct the highest standards and concern for safety. Our anesthesia providers exercise the utmost care and experience for your anesthesia needs. Our operating room is equipped with an analyzer that measures the concentration of the anesthestic agents inhaled and exhaled by the patient, end tidal CO2 produced by the lungs and the SaO2 as measured by a fingertip pulse oximeter. In addition the ECG and blood pressure are conintuously monitored throughout the case. There is no compromise when it comes to the surgical/anesthesia standard of care.
