We went around our Surgical Artistry Inc. office and asked individual members of our patient care team the question: what makes us different. Each person came up with their own list. Here are the responses.
1. For complex plastic surgeries, I (Dr. Lee) am available as a very capable assist. I’m a Board Certified General Surgeon with trauma experience. Other plastic surgeons get a tech or a nurse to help with the surgeries.
2. When people call with questions or potential problems, I’m (Dr. Lee) also available in the office to give advice and to examine the situation. Other practices have medical assistants or nurses only. They do not have the advantage of having a second doctor (Surgeon even), to make medical decisions regarding our patients’ care.
3. I’m available 24 hours a day for our patients, including Dr. Wu’s patients. Dr. Wu is also available 24 hours a day.
4. We have a full time medical aesthetician who is very interested in continuing education. She is available to help with skin care products or with skin evaluations at any time. She also provides services to help make our patients’ facial results last longer.
5. Dr. Tammy Wu is a female plastic surgeon
6. We have hard wood floors in our lobby (walnut floors).
7. We have very unique water fountains in our lobby – hand made, copper and wood – a set of two water fountains (a large one with two streams and a smaller one with one stream) intermingled with plants running through the fountains.
8. We have original Christy Hughes (Modesto Artist) art throughout our office. Some of which are for sale.
9. We have more colors on our wall than any other office (in fact we have 14 different colors on the walls). We even have a website that tells our guests about the different colors so they can replicate it for their home: http://www.surgerytoday.com/colors
10. All of our surgical equipment, lights, instruments, and furniture are new.
11. We have Electronic Medical Records (EMR) we’re a paperless charting office.
12. We carry arnica products (Gel, Cream, Pellets) to help reduce bruising, swelling, and pain after surgery.
13. We have a fantastic vein laser – probably the best in it’s field.
14. We have a full time acupuncturist on staff (Dr. Lee), to help with anxiety and recovery from surgery.
15. Staff is willing to stay late to get the work done.
Our office is the newest
Our acupuncturist is an MD trained in the USA and a general surgeon who is well versed in Western and Eastern medicine; therefore, offering his patients the best of both worlds.
We have wonderful and most friendly staff here in our office who are always willing to help.
The two surgeons are on the UC Davis University Faculty.

1. Our waiting room is not really a “waiting” room – there is very minimal waiting. In fact, it is a very spa-like atmosphere; very soothing and calming. Sometimes people want to relax even longer!! :)
2. We have the most informational website – and when you are considering any type of surgery, it is extremely important to be well informed.
3. We don’t separate ourselves from our patients with a sliding window
4. We have the most beautiful bathrooms
