Dr. Powers' philosophy is simple--to provide the best plastic surgery and follow up care for her patients. Most come to her Long Beach office with an idea of what they want to accomplish with their surgery. Dr. Powers listens carefully to her patients on this initial visit. The goal of Dr. Mary Powers is to help her patients achieve their realistic cosmetic goals and to ensure that the results are long-lasting.
After meeting with her patient and discussing his or her aesthetic goals a second (preoperative) meeting is scheduled before the actual surgery. During this appointment the details about the actual surgery are clarified and any additional concerns or questions the patient may have are addressed. Dr. Powers' wants to be certain that each patient understands all facets of the permanent surgical self-investment.
Dr. Powers performs the surgery in the safest manner possible in a state-of-the-art, certified surgery center in or near Long Beach. After surgery, the patient's progress is followed closely with office visits and phone calls until she or he is well-healed and satisfied with their results.
Annual follow-up visits for life are welcomed and complimentary. It is Dr. Powers' desire that her patients experience safe and very satisfying results. The well-being of each and every patient is important to Dr. Powers and her experienced staff. Patients appreciate such care and concern: read patient testimonials.
