It is with mixed emotions that I announce my retirement from active practice, effective April 1, 2027. I will continue operating until January 1, 2027. During the following three months, I will focus on seeing postoperative patients, performing small procedures, and providing Botox and filler injections.
Dr. Landon Perry, a plastic surgeon I have known and worked with for many years, will become the custodian of all my medical records and will be an excellent resource for your ongoing plastic surgery needs.
Your medical records are confidential, and a copy can be transferred to another doctor or released to you or to another person you designate only with your permission. If you plan to continue with Dr. Perry, you can sign an authorization to release your files to Dr. Perry on your next visit. If you choose to see a different physician, please contact the office as quickly as possible to obtain an authorization form for your records so we may transfer your records to you or your new doctor.
It has been my privilege and honor to serve as your plastic surgeon. After 40 years in practice, and with (almost) three grandchildren to spoil, this feels like the right time to step into a new chapter of life. Even so, I will truly and deeply miss seeing and caring for so many people whom I have come to think of not only as patients but also as friends.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the trust you have placed in me over the years. Being a part of your life and your care has meant more to me than I can adequately express.
CoolSculpting® patients are happy with their results! All are discovering improvement in contour of the treated areas. This cryolipolysis method externally freezes fat in the areas of the tummy, hips, flanks, and bra line. It is non-invasive, non-surgical, done in the office, and takes about 35 minutes per site treated with no downtime. A 30% reduction of fat is generally expected in the area(s) treated, and an additional treatment to each area could improve the contour as much as 50%. Secondary treatments can be done a month or so after the first.
We’re excited to tell you we’re running a summer special in honor of Dr. Kerner’s 30th wedding anniversary. She’s going on a lovely vacation with her husband, and we’re going to run that CoolSculpting® machine as much as we can while she’s away! Not sure CoolSculpting® is right for you? Enjoy a complimentary consultation with Belinda or Sally and learn more about the technology and how it can benefit you.
Each cycle will be offered $100 off during the special dates. As the manufacturer prohibits postingspecial pricing for CoolSculpting®, we’ll be happy to go over that with you either during your consultation or on the phone.
The dates for the special pricing are:
June 7 and 8; June 11, 12, and 13; June 18, 19, 20, and 21
Treatment times will be offered on a first come, first served basis. In order to receive special pricing, treatments must be done on one of the nine dates listed. No “banking” (paying for future treatments) will be permitted except when purchased as a package at the time of the first treatment. Call today to reserve your appointment! Sorry, no appointments made via email.
Many people are bothered by a “double chin”, usually caused by fatty deposits. Dr. Kerner injects this FDA-approved fat dissolving product into the submental (under chin) area. It takes several weeks to several months to see the final result, but our patients are pleased with the difference seen in that short time. A more refined jawline without the fullness or appearance of a double chin does not require maintenance or upkeep. One or two treatments (depending on the patient) is all you’ll need to see a permanent improvement.
During the month of July, Kybella® will be offered with special pricing of $500 for the first vial and $450 for the second vial, making the typical two vial treatment $950 (normally $1,200)*. This pricing is offered for the first 15 patients to book their appointments. Don’t miss out. Call today!
*Dr. Kerner will help determine how many vials of Kybella® will be needed. Most initial treatments are done with two vials. If additional vials will be needed, they may also be purchased at the special price as long as secondary treatments are completed within four weeks of the initial one. No exceptions. No appointments made via email!
