    Non-Cosmetic Doctors Profiting by Doing Cosmetic Procedures?
    A recent article in USA Today described a situation not unknown to those of us who are long-time cosmetic surgery-only practitioners.

    Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Questions

    Friday, August 27th, 2010

    Got a Question?  Ask it!  Why Worry?
    I like for patients to have every question answered.  Before surgery, it is very appropriate to have questions about anesthesia, recovery, pain.  Even worries of nausea and vomiting, which are now rare, should be addressed.
