Our Practice Philosophy
You are unique and your plastic surgery should reflect your individual goals. Dr. Lokeh will take whatever time is needed to carefully evaluate your particular situation and develop a treatment plan to help you look and feel your best. Our philosophy is not to try to “sell” you plastic surgery or a particular procedure, yet carefully listen to your objectives and provide you with an honest opinion based on experience and expertise. It is very important patients have all of the information they need before making their decision. He will discuss options that include safety, cost, value and effectiveness for each patient, review your entire history, and truly listen to what is troubling you and what you would like to improve. His assessment of what would provide the biggest change for the least amount of risk and cost will be provided.
Dr. Lokeh has often discouraged patients from pursuing certain procedures as he does not want to charge a patient for a procedure he believes will be less than effective for them. He believes in staying focused in areas of plastic surgery one excels in. Because he does a great deal of post bariatric plastic surgery, body contouring, and breast surgeries, he often send patients to other surgeons instead of performing a surgery he has chosen not to do frequently. He treats each patient as though they were a friend or family member.
We are a small practice and have worked together for many years in a comfortable, relaxed environment. I do not spend a lot on decorating an office space at the expense of my patients, and still take insurance when many plastic surgeons do not. Whenever possible, I charge less for procedures that are out-of-pocket.
Your consultation is a time to start the conversation and obtain the facts you need to make an informed choice. Our number one priority is providing each patient with individual attention, self care, and beautiful, natural results.
