New York Magazine Lists Dr. Robert Bernard

Among "Beauty's Best" Docs

White Plains, NY (October 6, 2003) – Robert W. Bernard, MD, of White Plains and Mt. Kisco, New York, is the only Westchester plastic surgeon named to New York Magazine's list of the city's top cosmetic physicians. The magazine's "Beauty's Best" list is an annual guide to the handful of physicians whose reputations for excellence in cosmetic procedures –- ranging from facelifts to body lifts to BOTOX® injections –- place them "a cut above" the hundreds of other physicians who perform these procedures in New York and surrounding areas. Only 23 plastic surgeons were named on this year's list.

Dr. Bernard performs all types of cosmetic surgery, including facial, breast and body contouring procedures. New York Magazine highlighted Dr. Bernard's "anterior vertical SMAS" facelift (also called the component facelift) technique, designed to enhance facial contours while reducing surgical risks and recovery time.

Dr. Bernard, who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and trained at the elite New York University plastic surgery program, is president of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). ASAPS, with nearly 3,000 members and candidates, is the nation's most prestigious organization of board-certified plastic surgeons specializing in cosmetic surgery of the face and body.

Dr. Bernard is Chief Emeritus of Plastic Surgery at White Plains Hospital, Northern Westchester Hospital in Mt. Kisco, and United Hospital in Port Chester.

Dr. Bernard's White Plains office includes a fully accredited ambulatory surgery facility, providing patients with state-of-the-art care in a comfortable, completely private setting.
