Three Locations

Your surgeon may be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If questions or concerns arise during normal office hours, please call (949) 386-2734 and the doctor will be notified. If questions or problems arise after normal office hours, please call the exchange by dialing (949) 472-1490. In the event of an emergency, the doctor will be paged. In his absence, the on call physician will be notified.

For your convenience, we have a Fax machine available 24 hours a day at (949) 496-2705

Parking is available directly in front of our office. Unfortunately, parking may be a problem mid-day. The hospital, which is located across the street, is available for parking anytime throughout the day.

Smoking is not allowed in our office or our surgery center.

It is customary in the field of cosmetic surgery that fees for procedures are paid in advance. This is also a policy advocated by the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons and the American Academy of Facial Plastic Surgeons.

Patients are provided with an itemized statement for tax purposes.

All pre & post-operative appointments are included in the surgical fees.

A 10% non-refundable deposit is required at the time of scheduling surgery. The importance of adhering to the scheduled surgery date cannot be emphasized enough. Last minute cancellations are problematic and expensive, as arrangements for anesthesia, nursing staff, operating room set-up, and recovery care must be made well in advance. If surgery needs to be re-scheduled, the deposit may be applied to surgery performed within six months. However, when surgery is postponed or re-scheduled within 21 days of the surgery day, the deposit will not be refunded or applied to a future date while an additional 20% cancellation fee will apply. Health related cancellations and family emergencies are exceptions, of course.

The balances of the surgical fees and anesthesia fees are to be paid two weeks prior to surgery and are usually collected at the pre-operative appointment.

Laboratory fees, EKG’s, and certain prescriptions are not covered in the surgical costs.

We offer two payment options. The first option is to pay the balance of surgery in full either with cash, check, or credit card. The second option is to finance surgery with the Care Credit. We are happy to offer the Care Credit because it requires no initial payment, the monthly payments are low, there is not a pre-payment penalty, and the first payment is not due for 4-5 weeks from the date that the loan is processed. With Care Credit, there are a variety of payment options, one of which is 12 months of interest free financing.

Our office strongly upholds the confidentiality of our patients. No information or medical records are released to anyone without specific written permission from our patients.
