Our small, state-of-the-art surgical facility offers unparalleled comfort and safety. Unlike busy hospital settings, our patients can relax in a comfortable and private environment.
Led by Dr. Joseph A. Russo, MD, we are conveniently located in Newton, MA, just 20 minutes outside of Boston. Our private practice has been in operation since 1991 and has evolved into a full-service cosmetic surgery center outfitted with modern amenities and the latest technology.
Personalized Patient Care
Patient-centered care is the hallmark of our AAAASF-accredited surgical center. As a small, tight-knit facility, we offer a more personalized option than public hospitals. Our team caters to one patient at a time, from the initial consultation process to surgery and recovery.
Private, individualized care ensures Dr. Russo’s patients get the best results. You will meet each member of our team, unlike a public hospital with changing shifts and high staff turnover. Every member of our medical staff has been carefully selected by Dr. Russo for their high level of experience, dedication, and compassionate bedside manner.
Comfortable & Private Recovery Rooms
Stepping inside our private medical facility, we strive to make each patient feel comfortable and well-cared for. Arguably, one of the most important considerations of getting plastic surgery is the recovery environment. Proper healing can only take place when the patient has a stress-free setting to facilitate recovery.
A bustling hospital recovery room is rarely private, with sick patients frequently sharing recovery rooms with patients that recently underwent cosmetic surgery. Hospital beds are located within feet of each other, with so little as a thin privacy curtain acting as a barrier between patients. This puts the healthy patient at a high risk of infection and a complete lack of privacy. In contrast, our serene recovery rooms are clean and private with uncompromising patient care.
Many patients that choose to get cosmetic surgery in hospitals also complain that it is difficult and scary when nurses and aids are nowhere to be found after surgery. With dedicated, one-to-one patient care, you will feel comforted knowing that our medical staff is beside you to ensure your safety and comfort the moment you wake from surgery in our private recovery room.
Convenient Location
Dr. Russo’s surgical suite matches the excellent quality of care that is available in Boston cosmetic surgery centers, with the comfort and tranquility that comes with a small-town feel. Located just 20 minutes outside of Boston, our comfortable, modern facility offers the best of both worlds.
One of the greatest benefits of our location is the privacy and convenience that it offers. We believe an important part of your cosmetic surgery journey is feeling at ease. The experience of pulling up to our private, discreet facility is nothing like sitting in traffic and looking for parking in a crowded Boston hospital parking lot. Removing stress on surgery day and during follow-up appointments goes a long way toward supporting good healing.
Safety and Cleanliness
Dr. Russo’s medical suite upholds the strictest safety measures as evidenced by our AAAASF accreditation. Our exceptional standards of cleanliness and safety dramatically lower the risk of cross-contamination as we don’t treat sick patients. We have one of the lowest infection rates of any surgical facility in the greater Boston area. Keeping our patients safe is of the utmost importance during and after surgery. This greatly reduces the risk of post-op complications.
The secret to our low-infection rate is having a small, tightly controlled environment. This enables proper sanitization of all surfaces between patients. As a small, private facility located just outside the city, there is far less foot traffic, which eliminates much of the contaminants that easily spread in public hospitals.
Our AAAASF accreditation demonstrates our commitment to patient safety. We aim to exceed the standards set by this nationally recognized medical oversight organization. AAAASF requires that the surgical site is led by a board-certified surgeon that is state-licensed. A top-level anesthesiologist oversees each cosmetic surgery that Dr. Russo performs.
All of our surgical equipment has been rigorously tested to meet the highest standards of safety. Every precaution is taken to protect our patients for the duration of their stay, maximizing both safety and comfort.
We Have the Strictest COVID-19 Measures in Place to Ensure Your Safety
With a smaller building and less foot traffic than hospitals, it is a much easier task to ensure the facility is sanitized. Exposure to fewer people makes our facility the safest choice, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. All medical staff and visitors are routinely screened according to the CDC protocol.
Not only is our surgical suite sanitized between patients, but our cleaning staff is also trained in CDC sanitization measures to ensure the safest environment possible. Every building material has been carefully selected for durability and ease of cleaning, from non-porous tile to stainless steel. This allows for extensive cleaning for enhanced patient safety.
