A Caring Approach

Home » Doctor Article » A Caring Approach

Dr. Horn and his staff take their claim of being patient centered
to the next level in terms of convenience, availability, experience
and support. Their first-class facility in
downtown is home to a thriving practice dedicated to the
cosmetic enhancement of the face and body. Dr. Horn works hard
to establish a sense of trust and confidence with his patients.
“Patients are surprised when I call them at home before and
after their surgery.” Anxious about a procedure? Dr. Horn’s staff
have all already had plastic surgery, so he matches patients due
to have the same procedure with his internal ambassadors. “It
gives patients a support network to call on if I am in surgery, or if
they just want to identify with a peer.” Saturday and evening hours
guarantee best times for busy professionals. His open-door policy,
easygoing demeanor and excellent results all spell growth, yet
Dr. Horn performs all surgeries himself rather than expand his
practice and bring on another plastic surgeon. The result: many
more patient-ambassadors willing to testify on behalf of their
exceptional experience.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT
When Dr. Horn began his practice, he pledged that he would never become a jack-of-all-trades. At a time when
many practitioners may be adding to their menu of services, he believes the secret to his success has been
perfecting his expertise in a limited number of procedures. His focus remains on BREAST AUGMENTATION,
FACIAL PROCEDURES, LIPOSUCTION AND TUMMY TUCKS. “You cannot train for a triathlon one day a week and
expect good results,” he explains. To Dr. Horn, his specialization and repetition of procedures provide his patients
with a winning combination. Aside from producing outstanding and predictable results, doing so allows him constantly
to sharpen his skills. Working towards perfecting a handful of procedures has resulted in his developing
surgical techniques that MINIMIZE SCARRING, SPEED RECOVERY, LESSEN BRUISING AND SHORTEN TIME
under anesthesia. Dr. Horn admits that there are many ways potential patients can evaluate surgeons; however,
for him, “the best surgeon is the one who most frequently performs a particular procedure.”
