Los Angeles cosmetic surgeon Dr. Michelle Spring says that, in her experience, women often feel more at ease about breast enhancement when they can consult with a female specialist.

Marina Del Rey, California (January 2012) – Dr. Michelle Spring of Marina Plastic Surgery Associates (marinaplasticsurgery.com) says she finds that female patients tend to feel more comfortable discussing breast enhancement procedures when they're talking with a female doctor. A Los Angeles cosmetic surgeon and breast enhancement specialist, Dr. Spring helps women feel and look their best by combining personal attention with advanced techniques.

"One of my goals during any consultation is to make the patient feel comfortable so we can openly discuss any concerns," Dr. Spring says. "When it comes to breast enhancement, I find that women typically feel more at ease speaking with a female surgeon."

One of the reasons patients feel more comfortable, she says, is that they sense that a female doctor can relate more easily to breast concerns.

"As a female, I understand why women would seek out breast enhancement procedures in Los Angeles, such as breast augmentation, and I am able to help them make important decisions regarding their surgery," Dr. Spring says.

Dr. Grant Stevens, a board-certified plastic surgeon and director of Marina Plastic Surgery Associates, explains that having a female plastic surgeon on his team helps those patients who are more comfortable discussing cosmetic concerns with a woman.

"It's great to see how Dr. Spring has connected with our female patients, and I'm glad she is able to help them feel more open and relaxed," Dr. Stevens says. "It's always our goal to provide the highest level of care for our patients, and we always try to take steps to create a comfortable environment."

Dr. Spring supports patients through every step of the surgical process and offers her advice for achieving the best results. Using her experience, she shares her insights on how to meet the specific goals of each patient.

"Whether I'm helping someone in Los Angeles learn about breast implant options or explaining the recovery process, I try to create an environment where the patient feels she can express any concerns when it comes to her breast enhancement procedure," Dr. Spring says. "I look forward to helping more women at our practice and assisting them in achieving an enhanced version of themselves."
