Choosing a Cosmetic Surgeon

March 6th, 2023

Dr. Ralph Bashioum arriving at KARE11-TV for interview

When asking patients why they chose me to do their surgery, I’m often surprised at the variety of answers. While it seems qualifications are important, length of experience and referrals from family or friends seem to top the list. With the rapid rise of social media, no doubt this may play a role as well. My patient shares her thoughts in excerpts from a previous blog.
Jessie writes, “To prepare myself for the rhinoplasty surgery, or nose job, I researched various websites, such as plasticsurgery.org, and Dr. Bashioum’s own website, nipntuck.com. I was most happy to find that Dr. Bashioum told me that we were working with my own nose, hence making the surgery look more natural (to harmonize with my facial structure).
I choose Dr. Bashioum for many reasons. Above all, I wanted a qualified surgeon; someone skilled and experienced, because I know this will make all the difference in the result of my surgical procedure. A friend recommended him, because she was very happy with the quality of the surgical staff and her own results. She in turn was also originally recommended to Dr. Bashioum by a co-worker, who also had surgery. When choosing a doctor, I was not necessarily concerned with specific certifications, but personal references. Personal referrals led me to choose Dr. Bashioum for my surgery. During my consultation, I also enjoyed meeting members of the staff and feel confident that they are aware of my individual needs and truly do care about me.

Another Kind 5-Star Patient Review

August 2nd, 2021

5-star Rating Review

What a nice way to start out this month! A hearty thank you to Brooke for sharing a 5-Star Google rating for her cosmetic surgery experience, which I happily shared with staff this morning. It is my practice philosophy to give my patients Informed Consent and I believe discussing surgical options is really important, as is answering all their questions. We also welcome second clinic visits to patients where that might be helpful.

Brooke writes, “Every step of this process was smooth. The staff were all very friendly and Dr. B is simply the best. It’s a big decision to go under the knife and I wouldn’t trust my body with anyone else. Always available to answer my questions and treated me with kindness and respect.”  Dr. Bashioum’s reply: Dear Brooke, Thank you for your 5-Star Review today. It means so much to hear that you are pleased with your cosmetic surgery experience and it is always a joy to share with my staff. We are dedicated to providing our patients with exceptional care and I believe that fully answering all questions contributes to trust in making the important decision to have surgery and then having that care extending throughout recovery. Thank you again for sharing your comments.
