It has been 2 years!

I can't believe it. But Surgical Artistry is now two years old. We have had our free standing plastic surgery office in north east part of Modesto for two years. Time flies. What have we accomplished? So much in the world of plastic surgery world/ vein world/ acupuncture world. But on the non medical side: Websites got diversified:
Bacchus Restaurant
Galletto Restaurante
Vito's restuarant - Modesto

Free Computer Programs and tools on the web that integrate into our medical practice is a website that has a listing of great computer tools that we use to run our plastic surgery office. These programs are available free on the web. We just updated this page to include a listing of free icon websites. These icons are useful in making webpages and for our computer systems to separate out important files.

Advice to a budding Plastic Surgery PA (Physician Assistant)

My advice to a budding Plastic surgery PA to learn before graduation (whether you want it or not):

Learn lasers, learn injections, learn skin care/facial rejuventation (retin A, Hydroquinone, UVA UVB), learn about spider vein treatments (sclerotherapy and lasers), and of course learn about how to do plastic surgery procedures, especially the ones that have two sides:
Tummy Tuck, Breast Aug, Breast Reduction.
Learn how to sew really nicely and fast.
Your best stitches will be an interrupted deep dermal stitch, and a running subcuticular stitch.
You have to have a goal of sewing better and faster than the surgeon you're watching when you're a student PA.
Learn to wear a headlight.
Learn both instrument and hand ties (for sutures). The instrument tie will be more important for you as a plastic surgery PA. You will eventually tie with the instrument faster than some can tie with their hands.
If you want to do much micro surgery or ocularplastics, you'll need to get used to and buy surgical Loupes (but this is low on the priorities right now).
Learn about the muscles of the face, abdominal wall, and chest wall. Learn about their nerve supply and blood supply. Also learn about the muscles / nerves / blood supply of the upper extremities. Many plastic surgeons are also hand surgeons.
