Your Surgical Consult

Quick Facts

The Surgical Consult is an Opportunity to Discuss Options with a Board Certified Surgeon

The surgical consult is an invaluable opportunity to discuss your objectives with your surgeon and learn about the risks and benefits of cosmetic surgery. Computer imaging is often used and is a great communication tool.

Dr. Buonassisi and Dr. Watts welcome you to West 8 Cosmetic Surgery, a private and exclusive practice located on a quiet tree lined street in the South Granville area of Vancouver. Your first visit is an opportunity for you to meet our staff, view or medical facility and have an an in-depth cosmetic consultation with your surgeon. Consultations will often include computer imaging so that you can see the simulated results of your surgery prior to making a decision. An important part of the consultation process involves understanding your needs and desires. Find out more what to expect on your first visit.

Educate & Inform

If you are like most people, you would like to have access to information about cosmetic surgery before you commit to booking a consultation. For that reason, we are committed to providing an abundance of information on our website. We encourage you to explore this website’s Knowledge Base.

Consultative Experience

Positive cosmetic surgery outcomes are highly dependent on several factors: the surgeon’s skill and experience play a major role. However, what is often overlooked is the quality of the surgical consult, which is when the patient’s expectations are managed. In order to facilitate an informative, communicative relationship with our patients, we have formalized a process for managing the cosmetic surgery experience. 8-West Cosmetic Surgery’s ‘8 Stage Cycle of Responsible Care‘ was built to help ensure that patients are well informed, have sufficient time to consult with their surgeon, and that their experience is facilitated each step of the way by our patient care experts.
