Safety
Safety is always the first directive for any surgery. We work hard on this every day of every week. How do we approach this?
- Fully CSPS(BC) accredited surgical facility.
- The best, most experienced and highest trained staff and nurses.
- Never ending education for everyone involved in your care. Dr. Stan is a member of the Canadian, American and International Aesthetic Plastic Surgery societies and attends several meeting a year focused on safety and professional improvement.
- Multimodal strategies to reduce or eliminate the need for opioid medications after surgery.
Next Steps
Some patients are focused and determined. They know what they want and they have done a lot of research already. Others are tentative or nervous – they wonder if they are doing the right thing in coming in to see us. Is this the right thing to consider right now?
Our goal is to treat everyone on all ends of spectrum the same – with understanding of what you are really seeking and then education as to what we have to offer that might move you towards that. A consultation is not a commitment to surgery. It is simply an opportunity to spend time with a professional to learn more about how the services we provide might mesh with your desired outcome.
