Christopher

As the manager of this established team, I’m responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of our practice. My top priority is to ensure that our patients receive top-notch care from their initial contact with our office to their final postoperative visit, and beyond. In addition to my work at the practice, I have a passion for expanding my skills and knowledge. In my free time, I enjoy exploring the culinary arts and aspire to be a classically trained chef.

I believe quality patient care begins with a smile and willingness to adapt to individual clients’ needs. I love sharing my sense of humor and gentle demeanor with patients to create the most relaxed experience possible from beginning to end. In my off hours you can find me at music events, watching new films, and cuddling with my two kittens, Gouda and Brie.

Coming from an intense academic medical center background I am thrilled to now focus my skills in the private practice setting. My goal is to ensure that your experience is one of a kind from the moment you walk in the door to your last postoperative visit. Among my free time favorites are paddle-tennis, making jewelry, and playing with my adorable wiener dog, Walter!

I joined the practice right out of nursing school. Although on the quiet side, maybe it was my intense focus that landed me the opportunity. I am constantly in the pursuit of perfection in carrying out my duties and my appetite to learn is huge. I devote these traits and a tireless work ethic to providing the best care for you.

I am known for my vibrant energy and dedication to patient care. My cheerful demeanor and genuine warmth help alleviate any apprehensions, ensuring that patients feel welcomed and supported throughout their journey. When I am not wearing my scrubs I love to be in the great outdoors, in the kitchen experimenting with new cuisine, or soaking up the sun on the beach volleyball court.

I embrace the Japanese Kaizen method, always striving to improve, even in the smallest ways. I apply this approach by thoughtfully and intentionally making adjustments to stay ahead of Dr. Hidalgo's needs as he works tirelessly to provide the best possible care. Beyond the operating room, I recently completed my first NYC Marathon and look forward to tackling many more miles and marathons in the future.

Lower eyelids typically require more maneuvers than upper eyelids for both to look evenly rejuvenated. Skin quality is more visible on the lower eyelids. So besides removing loose skin it may be necessary to improve its texture with either a laser or chemical peel treatment at the same time. Older patients with weak lower eyelids may require a tightening procedure in the outer corner. This patient is actually a candidate for that but this would change his eye shape considerably, a prospect outside our goals. Instead he had only a temporary tightening to get him through the swelling period.  In contrast, young patients with familial bags typically just need them removed as a single maneuver.  In any event, regardless of what is involved, patients generally look good in two weeks after upper and lower eyelid surgery.

Rhinoplasty has evolved and is technically more complex today despite its simple conceptual nature. The nose has three structural parts: the upper third are bones, the middle third are cartilages that affect both appearance and breathing, and the lower third are the tip cartilages. Changes are typically made to all three areas. This is shown in schematic representation here but the actual changes made are much more extensive than indicated. It takes a lot of time, effort, and finesse is to create a pleasing and elegant shape, with no margin for error!  Rhinoplasty surgery is truly a labor of love.

Welcome back to the Sam & Meg series!  It’s easy to look like a genius on social media doing facelifts on 45 year olds. The true need in that age group is very rare indeed.  Facelifts are a big commitment and are not done for preventive purposes. Don’t jump the gun and use them up prematurely. #faceliftsurgery #faceliftbeforeandafter #facialrejuvenation
