part of the team approach to skin care. Although
surgical procedures and noninvasive procedures such as chemical

maintain and protect your results with a healthy skin care
regime. Sylvia is a licensed aesthetician and offers a wide
range of aesthetic services.

Kate Cox
Kate is Dr. Platis' patient coordinator. She has been working

patients. Patients will usually speak with Kate at length
prior to their consultation with Dr. Platis so that she
can understand their concerns and help explain some basic
information regarding whatever procedures in which they
have expressed interest. After your consultation with Dr.
Platis, Kate will discuss your procedure costs in detail
and answer any additional questions you might have. When
it's time for you to schedule surgery, Kate will facilitate
the entire process and will continue to coordinate all of
your postoperative visits.
