“Patients are, first and foremost, people. So that’s where my work begins: I treat every person with individual consideration to get a clear understanding of their specific circumstances. Once we’ve determined the appropriate treatment goals and methods, I apply my skills and experience to create both functional and aesthetic restoration. And as the field advances, I’m committed to ongoing improvement of my own skills as well so that I can do whatever it takes to improve my patients’ quality of life.”
– Dr. David G. Genecov
“My life goal as a physician is to treat each patient with the same professional expertise, consideration, and personal concern as I would my own family members. And my family is my most valued asset.”
– Dr. Carlos Raul Barcelo
Huay-Zong Law, MD“Every patient and family is different, and their treatment must be tailored to their individual needs and desires. Often several surgeries are possible, but I only offer surgery if it is what I would want for my own child or family member. I trained with many amazing surgeons, and try to combine the best from each to help my patients as safely and reliably as possible.”
— Dr. Huay-Zong Law
