Philosophy & Practice Info

Practice Philosophy

Dr. Saul R. Berger is dedicated to providing the highest level of Plastic Surgery services with the utmost professionalism. The foundation of this capability is his outstanding training in General Surgery at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York and Plastic Surgery at the prestigious USC in Los Angeles. He obtained board certification in both specialties and has been practicing in the Los Angeles area for more than 13 years. He has maintained his affiliation with USC as Clinical Assistant Professor of Surgery and has participated in residency training. He also has published in peer review journals, presented at national meetings, and chaired local Plastic Surgery symposia.

Dr. Berger brings an extensive experience in both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures to each patient consultation to create an effective, safe and sophisticated plan of treatment. He believes that the greater the variety of procedures and technologies available to the plastic surgeon, the more customized the plan can be for the individual. In addition, patients directly benefit from his ongoing efforts to improve upon the way existing procedures are done. Dr. Berger is an advocate of combining a variety of surgical techniques and new technologies to achieve his results and to foster rapid healing with less discomfort. This includes frequent use of minimal incision and endoscopic approaches and even procedures in which there are no visible incisions. Most surgeries can be performed as outpatient in an AAAASF accredited surgicenter in collaboration with board certified anesthesiologists and an experienced, handpicked operating room team.
