My initial contact with the patient begins on consultation day. I bring the patient back to the private exam room where I review their health history in great detail. I review their allergies, their surgical history, if they are taking any medications, if they are a smoker and if so, what is their smoking history, if they have any cardiac problems, any respiratory disorders. Once I have gathered all my data, I then inquire and find out what procedure of interest the patient has. I talk to them at that point in detail about the surgical procedure of interest. I review the pros and cons and risks of surgery. Once my consultation is complete with the patient, Dr. Jon Trevisani enters the room and he... Continue Reading

I am Barbara. I am the front desk receptionist/coordinator for Dr. Jon Paul Trevisani. We like to call him Dr. Jon and most of the patients do too. I have been here for over 9 years and I have worked in the plastics field for about 20 years. We kind of pride ourselves on taking care of the patient's very smooth go from the time they call till the time they make their consultation, till the time they do their preop surgery and all their postop visits.
My name is Roshani and I am a registered nurse. I have been with Dr. Jon Paul Trevisani in his practice since 2004. I graduated nursing school in 1999 and since then I have been in plastic surgery. The most rewarding part of working in cosmetic surgery is by far working with our patients, working with happy and healthy patients.
I am Dr. Ken Miller. I have been practicing anesthesiology in Central Florida since 1983. I came here after graduating medical school at Lake Forest and doing my residency at the University of Florida in Gainesville. I have been with Dr. Trevisani for somewhere between 7 and 8 years now. Generally, patients do not get to meet me until they have surgery, unless there is a specific reason or a medical concern and then we evaluate them beforehand, but for most patients, I interview them immediately prior to surgery, doing a quick history and physical evaluation and then I formulate my anesthetic plan.
As a medical student, I knew the surgical field was where I wanted to be, and then with our surgical rotations in clinicals, the plastic surgery seemed to be a good fit for me because of seeing the patients and how happy they were after their cosmetic surgery. So that immediate gratification was something that has really attracted me to the field, and making people feeling better about themselves and more self assured and doing that on a daily basis was really what it is all about.
Breast reduction patients are one of the happiest patients out there. This surgery dramatically improves their life, their self-confidence, their ability to interact in public, gives them more incentive to workout to keep it off. This procedure is very life changing.
