At the initial consultation, Dr. Friedland will review the patient's past medical history, perform an appropriate physical examination and suggest a therapeutic plan for correction of problems. This takes into account the necessity for surgery and whether or not the patient is a good candidate for a particular procedure. Extensive educational materials (including instructional videos) are provided which discuss pre-operative and post-operative care and the surgical procedures being considered.

Photographs of patients are taken for their medical records, where they remain confidential and are never shown to anyone, as the staff and Dr. Friedland completely respect the privacy of their patients. However, textbook diagrams and textbook "Before" and "After" photographs are available for review. Computer simulation is not used since it is  felt that we cannot promise a result which might not be precisely the result achieved by surgery.

If the patient elects to have surgery, the initial consultation fee charged will be deducted from the surgical fee. Major credit cards are accepted for payment, financing plans are available.
