The primary concern of every member in my practice is the safety and well being of our patients. The operations that I perform are done within the safe confines of the prestigious Mount Sinai Medical Center. Furthermore, I do every operation myself to be sure that the quality of the work done is outstanding. It is my intention to have every patient leave the office looking naturally beautiful without any evidence that an operation has taken place. In the end, I want people to be happy that they came to me for help. http://drsterry.com Your Consultation Patients are welcomed into the office by a receptionist and asked to provide some basic information about their health.
