Plastic Surgeon Warns: Don't Sacrifice Safety In This Tough Economy
Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, Dr. Jay Orringer, approaches cosmetic surgery with a vast background and knowledge in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Dr. Orringer warns "don't sacrifice safety for savings". Skimping in any of three critical areas can lead to a less safe and satisfying plastic surgery outcome.
Beverly Hills, CA (Vocus/PRWEB ) February 2, 2009 - Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, Dr. Jay Orringer, has been in practice for nearly two decades.
With his main office in Beverly Hills, liposuction, abdominoplasty, facelift and breast procedures are specialties of Dr. Orringer. When considering plastic surgery consider these factors regarding patient safety to better ensure a pleasing outcome. It may cost more to use a well-qualified, board certified surgeon who utilizes a high quality accredited facility and board certified physician anesthesiologist.
Cost-saving considerations should not preempt safety considerations at any time. First, a thorough discussion of the patient's individual issues and expectations is a necessity. In his examination he carefully evaluates the nature of the unique concerns of the patient. Before leaving the initial consultation, a detailed analysis and discussion of various options, including their advantages and disadvantages takes place. This is followed by further in depth discussion at the time of the pre-operative visit. A successful, meticulous, operation occurs only with very detailed pre-operative planning and further discussion regarding concerns, goals and expectations. "At the completion of the process, it is very gratifying to share the delight of a satisfied patient," says Dr. Orringer. "A discussion of ways to best assure patient safety is part of the initial consultation and pre-operative visit," continues Dr. Orringer. Dr. Orringer is board-certified by the American Board of Surgery and is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. Both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery are Boards that are recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties. Board certification is a critical variable in the safety equation - certification helps to better assure higher levels of medical training and qualification. Other important safety considerations include the use of an accredited surgical facility. Accreditation by the Joint Commision Ambulatory Accreditation Program requires a facility to meet certain standards that promote patient safety and quality of care. With regard to administration of anesthesia, Dr. Orringer prefers the use of a board certified physician anesthesiologist. During the past two decades, Dr. Orringer, who is double board certified and has completed a fellowship in microsurgery, has acquired considerable training and experience in facelift, blepharoplasty, tummy tuck, breast lift and breast augmentation. Beverly Hills patients who are interested in facial, body or breast cosmetic surgery should demand a high level of attention to detail, training and experience from their cosmetic surgeon. Dr. Orringer's practice uses three different facilities in the vicinity of Santa Monica, Westwood and Beverly Hills. The Renaissance Medical Center for Aesthetic Surgery is a warm, comfortable facility located in the heart of Beverly Hills. Plastic surgery consultations, as well as pre-operative and post-operative visits, take place here. The accredited Surgery Center of Santa Monica provides outstanding care and personalized service to patients and their families during the surgical procedure. Patient comfort and safety are emphasized during the preoperative, intra-operative and postoperative experience. Dr. Orringer's patients begin their recovery at the Serenity Postsurgical Aftercare Retreat, where the expert staff specializes in the post-surgical care of the cosmetic surgery patient. Serenity's skilled nursing care facilitates the start of the recuperation process. Serenity is a medically oriented setting offering licensed nursing care, hotel-like accommodations and optional therapeutic services. It is a well rounded, holistic approach to patient care and safety that has garnered Dr. Orringer wide recognition including listing in "The Best Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons," "Guide to America's Top Plastic Surgeons," "Guide to America's Top Surgeons," "Guide to America's Top Physicians," as well as listing in Los Angeles Magazine's "Southern California's Super Doctors."
