Dr. Engler's office, which is located at 122 East 64th Street (between Park and Lexington Avenues) in New York City, contains a fully equipped surgical facility that is accredited by the American Association for the Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgical Facilities (AAAASF). Most procedures are performed here, under local anesthesia and intravenous sedation. Some procedures (such as breast reductions) are routinely performed in a hospital. Any procedure, however, can be performed in a hospital, according to the patient's and/or the surgeon's preferences. Dr. Engler has admitting and operating privileges at several Manhattan hospitals (Beth Israel Medical Center and the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary) as well as in some suburban communities. Dr. Engler's operating privileges at these hospitals include all of the surgical procedures that are performed in the office.
Dr. Engler has received a U.S. Patent (D458,680) for a surgical instrument he designed. The instrument, called the
Engler Lighted Retractor, is distributed by Byron Medical, a division of the Mentor Corporation. Available in two sizes, it is used for procedures on several different areas of the body, including the face (facelifts, liposuction of the chin/neck) and breasts (breast enlargements).
