BEYOND SURGICAL EXPERTISE

Dr. Capizzi recommends identifying a practice that is committed to utilizing the most advanced techniques and technologies to achieve natural-looking and beautiful results that enhance your confidence and quality of life.

A testament to Dr. Capizzi’s commitment to advancing the field of plastic surgery is that he is actively involved in FDA clinical trials for breast implants and medical devices, contributing to the research and development of innovative products and techniques that improve patient outcomes and safety in plastic surgery.

Dr Capizzi’s participation in these studies demonstrates his dedication to staying at the forefront of the field and ensuring his patients have access to the most cutting-edge advancements. He is a respected member of the plastic surgery community and is frequently sought after for his insights and expertise. This level of commitment should be your baseline when researching a practice.

TRUST AND PERSONALIZED CARE

Make sure there is a qualified team working with your doctor. Dedication to patient education, ensuring that you are fully informed and empowered throughout your surgical journey, is a must.

Choosing a plastic surgeon is a deeply personal and important decision. Friendly and knowledgeable staff is a big part of what will make your experience as comfortable and seamless as possible.

It is essential to have experienced nurses, patient coordinators and administrative personnel, all working together to ensure that every aspect of your journey—from consultation to post-operative care—is handled with the utmost professionalism and attention to detail.

“I believe that a supportive and caring environment is essential to achieve the best possible results, and our entire team is dedicated to providing just that. We’re here to answer your questions, address your concerns and guide you through every step of the process, ensuring you feel confident and informed throughout your entire experience,” says Dr. Capizzi.

DR. CAPIZZI’S TOP TIPS

The patient experience should be intentionally crafted and elevated.

Olivia, Capizzi MD Director of Operations, says, “We offer a range of treatments from non-surgical to surgical that have been mindfully chosen so that we may provide the best care for our patients throughout their entire life. Your aesthetic needs change over time, but your healthcare provider should be one that consistently delivers an amazing patient experience, which is what we strive for at Capizzi MD.”
