There are two facilities where surgery can be performed. Dr.
Karen performs surgery in his completely-equipped operative
treatment room. An anesthesiologist, who is board certified and
on staff at Winchester Medical Center, administers intravenous
sedation while Dr. Karen utilizes local anesthesia. Healthy
patients that can undergo three hours of sedation can have their
surgery at the office. This offers a private and more intimate
setting for surgery. The anesthesiologist fee is based on an
hourly rate and is $450 for the first hour and $300 each subsequent hour.
A separate room charge of $500 is paid to help restock supplies.
Dr. Karen can also perform surgery utilizing only local
anesthesia. This removes the anesthesia cost to the patient.
Only select patients and procedures can be performed under local
anesthesia only.
The Surgi-Center offers comprehensive care to the surgical
cosmetic patient, and it is where Dr. Karen performs a majority
of his surgery. The staff there is dedicated to the complete
care of the cosmetic patient, including confidentiality. The Surgi-Center is an ideal place to have your cosmetic procedure(s)
performed. Estimates of the facility charge as well as the
anesthesia fee will be given to you at your consultation.
Payment: In order to schedule your surgery date, the office
requires you to pay a deposit, which is equal to 1/3 of the
surgical cost of your procedure. Two weeks prior to your date,
