For over 35 years, Dr. Waheed has combined tried and true method of personalized patient care with the latest in cosmetic surgery technology, to bring patients both peace of mind and responsible, assured results. His dedication to the art form is based on a deeply felt belief in the surgeons’ ability to help people feel better about themselves. Add to that Dr. Waheed’s total devotion to his patients, and it’s easy to see why they hold him in such high regard.
“To me, there’s nothing more wonderful than seeing a patient happy with the results of their surgery. That’s why I became a doctor.”
Dr. Waheed believes in making his patients feel comfortable. This includes showing patients how successful past procedures have been so they can feel confident their procedure will go just as well. “Dr. Waheed is a magician,” says Waheed patient Joanne. “I had had surgery from another doctor before I ever met Dr. Waheed, and the results were not to my liking. So, you can imagine, I was a little nervous about the idea of having surgery again. Dr. Waheed was just fabulous! He put me at ease right away and clearly explained everything he was going to do to help me with a great deal of concern for my comfort and feelings. He also made himself available to me any time, which really put my mind at ease. He corrected the other doctor’s mistakes on my facelift and did an amazing job.”
Availability is the key for Dr. Waheed to make patients feel totally at ease. “To me, the most important thing is taking care of the patient. I will do whatever I can to accommodate a patient’s needs. If I have to see them every single day, including the weekend, to reassure them, I will do that. Sundays and holidays are not a problem. The most important thing for a surgeon is to be good to the patient. I see patients whenever they need me.”
