Established in 1990 after teaching residents in the art of plastic surgery for a decade, I left the Loma Linda University professorship and opened private practice venture in Newport Beach in 2000. I have been in the same location for the last 14 years, serving Orange County and surrounding counties and states with a concierge experience, before the word became associated with high quality Patient-focused personalized health care. I believe in being and providing the best for my patients, and maintain board-certification in not one, but 3 specialties in medicine. This places me, along with just a handful of other physicians in the United States, among an elite group which numbers only 57 others with the same credentials. Private practice also allows me to pursue my interests in photography and  computer technology while at the same time benefiting my patients and enhancing their experience. And I believe, the best is yet to come as evolving technology continues to help us treat aging skin with less scars, faster recovery and more natural results.
