New Unique Model

BETTER PRICES, EXCELLENT CARE

Unlike at many practices, patients don’t have to weave their way through administrative red tape in order to consult with Dr. Stachowicz. This allows for low overhead costs that can provide better than regional prices with a better patient experience than other practices. Instead, patients bypass the front office and talk directly to him, calling him to ask questions and seek advice prior to surgery and during recovery.

DR. STACHOWICZ STAYS IN CONTACT WITH PATIENTS 24/7

What’s more, before beginning any surgery, he takes as much time as necessary to learn about the patient, explain their surgical options, and recommend a course of action, whether that be minimally invasive Botox injections or a skin-tightening neck lift. And, afterward, Dr. Stachowicz stays in close contact with his clients to ensure they’re healing and feeling confident about their results.

Note from Dr. Pawel Stachowicz, M.D.

"Have you ever thought: “It would be so much better if I could just communicate directly with my doctor…”?
If the answer is “Yes” then you arrived to the right place.

There are no gimmicks. My practice has been transformed in 2012 from “the usual” to truly patient oriented.


Reality is that plastic surgery practices waste expenses on excessive office, private surgery space, multiple assistants and flamboyant advertising. Higher overhead costs have palpable effects on patients. Simply put, patients have to pay for all of that by having impossibly short consults, more pressure to perform “extra” procedures, very limited access to the actual doctor and higher prices. All of that has real consequences for patient's quality of care and safety.

I will be most of all honest. I will not rush through the process because education is the priority. If we need more time then additional time will be found. It is perfectly OK to leave the consultation without a “sale”. We will talk later once the information has sunk in. I will not suggest an unnecessary surgery. I am happy to refer my future patients to former patients if they wish to discuss their concern on more personal level".

HERE’S WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

I first met Dr. S after I was diagnosed with breast cancer. He was to do my bilateral breast reconstruction. I liked him right away. Dr. S is not only an extremely skilled surgeon but a genuinely caring individual. He was always just a text away, even after my breast work was completed.
