Garland Porterfield, M.D. specializes in cosmetic surgeries of the face, body and breasts. Cosmetic surgery is generally sought by patients to improve their appearance, and is not covered by insurance.
A consultation with our Patient Counselor is part of your first visit. You will leave with a comprehensive package of information, including fees, costs, and payment options, which you can consider at your leisure once you are home. She will be able to provide you with the specific information you need.
All cosmetic fees must be paid approximately two weeks prior to the procedure. We provide a number of payment options that may be used either individually or in any combination that best fits your need.
It is very common for patients to elect for multiple procedures to be performed at the same day of surgery. If additional procedures are performed at the same surgical setting, related fees may be reduced. There are limitations to the amount of surgery that can safely be performed at one session. Discuss these issues with Dr. Porterfield.
