Dr. Bashioum on KARE TV Evening News

January 27th, 2012

I was recently interviewed for a television news segment for KARE-11  TV.  It is a story about a popular body modification trend, called ear gaging,  One of my patients seeking to have the gaging  appearance reversed, also participated.  We were originally interviewed for an article by Jeff Strickler at the Minneapolis StarTribune. The procedure that is needed to restore ear lobes to approximate normal looking ears requires cosmetic surgery.

Fox News Segment

September 22nd, 2009

KMSP-TV, the Minneapolis Fox affiliate, aired the health and medical  segment today by Dr. Archelle Georgiou, that we filmed in my office last week.   Dr. Georgiou and my patient, Patty, did a great job.   Their frank discussions go a long way  to allay possible anxiety that patients may experience surrounding the surgical aspect of elective cosmetic procedures.   In fact, I received a call from a patient who is scheduled for surgery in my office this morning, after seeing the segment.   Even though she had already discussed surgery with me at my office and was comfortable with her decision to have surgery, she said that the television interview eliminated any lingering worries she had about the day of her surgery.  My sincere thanks to Patty and Dr. Georgiou and thank them for all the kind words!

I have found that my patient contributions included on the blog are an excellent educational tool for those considering cosmetic surgery.  I naturally explain the surgery from my perspective as a surgeon.  Whereas personal patient reflections really give a valuable first-hand look at what a patient might expect from another perspective.

I extend a special “thank you” to all my patients that have contributed their own stories on our blog about having cosmetic surgery.
