Trillium Cosmetic Surgery & Skin Care

Your body and your health belong to you. We are here to help when, and if, you need us. Each patient is unique, with a unique set of problems, needs, desires, concerns, emotions and history. Whenever possible, we will inform you of your options for treatment, and allow you to make informed choices for your care. We cannot, and will not, make unilateral decisions for you concerning your own body and how it is treated.

This is sometimes troubling to patients, and sounds passive, until they understand our fundamental philosophy of care. We do not wish to fix something that is not broken, but we will make every possible effort to allow you to choose the avenue of medical or surgical treatment which is most likely to provide the improvement you seek, or which is indicated for your health or cosmetic desires.

When a problem is anatomic and effects normal functioning of the eye (i.e. possibly covered by insurance), we will make every effort to assist you in obtaining approval for insurance payment. When a concern is cosmetic, we will discuss the options for improvement and give appropriate price quotes.

Not every patient can, or will, benefit from our services. When this is the case, we will be exceedingly and respectfully frank, believing that sometimes no treatment is better than a treatment which will produce minimal results, and/or unwarranted expense and inconvenience. If your problem is outside our area of expertise, we will offer a referral to another expert physician who has earned our respect, and who has the skills which may help you. For some patients with certain conditions, tincture of time is a variable option.

We will always do our best to guide you and participate with you in deciding upon the treatment and/or surgical option which is best suited to your individual needs, your specific condition, your desires for improvement and your lifestyle.
