Many of our patients fly in from out-of-state or visit us from international locations. Below is some information to explain and help facilitate this process:
Take the first step and contact us by phone or email.
Dr. Cassileth will review your photos and assess if you are a good candidate for surgery.
Our patient care consultant, Sonya Pasamonte, will give you an estimated cost for the procedures in which you are interested. Sonya will also discuss pre-operative care, recovery, local accommodations and answer any other questions related to your procedure and stay in Beverly Hills.
Dr. Cassileth will review your photos and assess if you are a good candidate for surgery.
Schedule your procedure. Once you have decided to proceed, a $2,500 deposit is required to reserve your surgery date. This becomes non-refundable after 48 hours. The balance for your surgery is due two weeks before your surgery date.
Once you have booked your surgery you will receive by mail your pre-operative instructions and procedure consents. This packet must be read carefully and instructions followed closely. Details of any blood work required and related medical testing will be included in this packet.
Two weeks before your surgery date our physician\'s assistant, Kristin Polega, will contact you by phone to review your instructions and go over your health history.
Local Airports:
    Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
    Burbank (BUR)
    Orange County (SNA)
    Long Beach (LGB)
Our closest airport is LAX. It is approximately 20-40 minutes from our office depending upon traffic.
You MUST arrive one to two days prior to your surgery date. At a designated time during this period you will meet with Dr. Cassileth and have an in-depth consultation to discuss your procedures. Surgical consents will be signed at this time.
Recovery: We require that patients flying in for surgery spend at least one night in an after-care facility to ensure that you receive any necessary medical attention. We will help you to arrange your stay with one of the excellent facilities we recommend.
  In the days that follow, Dr. Cassileth and her assistant, Kristin Polega, PA-C, will see you post-operatively at our office. Depending upon which procedures that have been performed you may return home 7 - 14 days later. We advise that you have your primary care physician aware of your surgery and available to follow up with you once you return home. Your health and safety are our main concern.

We look forward to assisting making your dreams become a reality.
