High quality cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery takes time

Andrew believes that high quality care starts with giving patients sufficient time for all parts of their treatment. He therefore takes time to listen to his patients’ about what they want to achieve from cosmetic surgery. Furthermore, he spends time discussing treatments in detail. Mr Morritt’s patients are given time to consider everything that has been discussed before proceeding with surgery. His patients are not put under pressure to have surgery. Andrew is happy to meet with patients for further consultations if they have further questions (he does not charge for these additional consultations). Additionally, Andrew allows extra time for all operations and is therefore not under pressure to rush operations as is frequently the case for many cosmetic surgeons.
