Your Consultation

Complimentary Virtual Consultation
The consultation-to-surgery process at Dr. Gruber's practice is a comprehensive, patient-centric journey. It starts with the intake, where patients fill out forms, upload photos and specify their aesthetic goals. Our consultants collect essential details and answer basic queries about the procedure and recovery.
Next, the virtual consultation with Dr. Gruber involves her assessing your photos and personal goals and sketching a prospective outcome of your surgery. Financial estimates are then shared via our patient app.
The in-person consultation is crucial for finalizing the surgical plan. Even though a plan is initially crafted through the virtual consultation, it can be fine-tuned or amended based on in-person interactions. Flexibility in surgical planning is key in our practice.
On surgery day, patients are thoroughly briefed about the procedure, and medications are conveniently delivered to the surgery center. Photos are taken pre-surgery, and all surgical procedures are carried out in a sterile, comfortable environment.
Post-operation, we ensure follow-up visits the next day to assess garment fitting and skin draping. We provide an additional garment for convenience. This holistic process ensures a smooth and personalized patient experience, reflecting Dr. Gruber's dedication to exceptional care.
