Facial Plastic Surgery & Hair Restoration Oakland, CA

Welcome to my website.  If you are reading this introduction, you most likely have had little, if any, knowledge of me and my practice so I would like to give you an introduction.  You might want to know why you should explore this website further or contact my office for an appointment and consultation. To summarize what I have to offer compared to most others is experience  and the knowledge and skills  that comes with it .

Since 1971, I have acquired a broad experience in facial plastic surgical procedures including hair restoration surgery.  Many Internet plastic surgery websites emphasize experience, certification, great skill and strong reasons why you should see the practitioner who owns that website.  I offer experience that few can match. Please see information about my extensive education and training, and long list of certifications here.  When others refer to their expertise, education, and certification, it is people like me who were the teachers and lecturers and writers of the articles that gave them their level of knowledge.  Having a level of knowledge is one thing, having the hands-on experience and judgment that goes with it is another.

I also want to emphasize that we have an in-office accredited surgical facility that is surveyed every three years by an independent accrediting body, the Institute for Medical Quality.  What this means to you is that surgery can be performed under local anesthesia,"twilight sleep" ( conscious sedation), intravenous anesthesia and general anesthesia within our office.  Our office surgery center has been present at the 3324 Webster location since 1977 and we have an extremely high safety record. It has been shown that rates of infection are much lower in office surgical facilities than in hospitals due to the fact that we operate only on healthy people.  The same is true for serious complications. more
