Our Philosophy:
Our Philosophy consists of BALANCE
Everyone’s physical appearance, physiological function and mental health are intimately associated. True beauty requires a mixture of all three of these aspects of one’s life. We strive to ensure all 3 of these elements are looked after when you visit our rooms.
Our philosophy consists of realistic GOALS
“I believe that my patients and I should reach the same goals for their care. Working together, we can create a plan to best achieve a beautiful and realistic end result. While I think that every patient should have the result that they want, I also believe in trying to restore a patient’s natural beauty.”
Our philosophy consists of SAFETY
“I am a 53 year old Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon, consulting from my private practice at St Augustine’s Hospital in Durban, South Africa.
Since 2004 I have consulted over 11,000 patients in my practice. As far as I’m concerned, there is no substitution for experience and diligence when you have someone’s life and well-being in your hands. I insist that each patient is adequately informed about the potential risks that are inherent with their particular operation. I devote substantial time during our consultation to learn about my patients and extensively answer their questions. I am dedicated to ensuring every patient’s experience with me is not only enjoyable, but also safe.”
