Barrington Plastic Surgery, Ltd. offers a full array
of reconstructive and aesthetic surgical procedures. Dr.
Christopher Pelletiere performs the full spectrum of plastic surgery
procedures including hand surgery, reconstruction after trauma or
cancer, skin cancer treatment and repair, burn treatment, wound
reconstruction, and the full spectrum of aesthetic procedures, both
surgical and non-surgical.
Consultations are available Monday through Friday, depending on the
schedule and request. There is a fee for consultations; however, this
is waived if surgery is scheduled. There is no time limit during
consultations, or even follow-up visits, since each visit is very
personal in nature. Patients are never rushed and are encouraged to
take as much time as they need when discussing their problems,
surgery, follow-up, etc. All consultations are done with the doctors
themselves - there are no patient coordinators, aesthetic consultants,
etc. that come between you and the doctors.
Surgery is performed in our in-office surgical suite, a day-surgery
center, or a local hospital, depending on the health of the patient,
the extent of the procedure, and the type of anesthesia required.
For reconstructive procedures, we are contracted with most
insurance companies. For those companies we are not contracted with,
we will still work with them to ensure that the majority of a
patient's reconstructive work is paid by insurance and not the
patient.
For aesthetic procedures, payment in full is due on the day of
surgery.
As a practice, we believe that mutual trust, respect, and attention
to detail are critical for providing the optimal surgical result for
each patient. We also believe in patient privacy and strict
confidentiality. We do not advertise in magazines, newspapers, etc. -
we let word of mouth from our patients be our referral base, since
excellent work and patient rapport speaks much more than any
advertisement can. We take pride in the fact that we have an
extraordinarily high number of returning patients, with a patient base
that encompasses not only the entire Chicago area, but also nationally
and internationally, from Europe to South America.
