FAQs About Our Practice
Will I be able to tolerate the pain post-operatively?
Each patient will tolerate pain post-operatively in a different way, and we consider this. While some patients may describe the pain as an ache, others experience greater discomfort. Appropriate pain medications are prescribed for the post-operative patients, and these help minimize discomfort. Most facial cosmetic operations have minimal postoperative discomfort. Liposuction is slightly more uncomfortable, and operations that require elevation or tightening of the muscles, such as an abdominoplasty or breast reduction, have discomfort equal to that of a C-section.

“I was so lucky to get surgery by Dr. Cole after a serious car accident. He did an amazing job fixing my orbital bone and totally shattered nose. Once I saw him, I knew everything was going to be ok. He is extremely professional and I am so grateful that he saved my life.”

“Dr. Cole removed a lipoma from the back of my neck. He is a very professional and caring physician who made me feel at ease during my procedure. I can highly recommend him. I really appreciated his kind and genuine bedside manner and the respect he had for his assistant and me. From the moment I walked in and was greeted by his office staff until the time I left I felt very comfortable and taken care of. I had a very good experience and I am happy I chose Dr. Cole.”

“I was having a hard time finding someone I trusted to do my tummy tuck, but I knew the second Dr. Cole said “Look, I’d rather be up front and honest with you right now, even if I lose you as a patient, than have you be unhappy later. Even if you end up going somewhere else, at least I’m being honest with you and that’s what’s important.” I knew the moment he said that that he was the doc for me. That says a lot. I’m very happy with my new tummy. Dr. Cole was with me every step of the way.”

“Dr. Cole is very upbeat- and extremely knowledgeable and talented. Reconstruction after a double mastectomy is delicate both physically and emotionally. Dr. Cole understands how difficult this particular process can be.”
