The genesis of Dr. Calvin Lee as an aesthetic physician

I was a busy general surgeon with a heavy load of trauma surgery. Conflicts with my six member general surgery group landed me without a job. This allowed me to reflect upon how I wanted to prioritize my time and my life. I wanted to spend more time growing artistically with my violin. I also wanted to continue making web pages to share information. And most importantly I wanted to spend more time with my wife who is a plastic surgeon. During my phase of soul-searching, I enrolled in a year long Medical Acupuncture course affiliated with Stanford University and added acupuncture to the list of skills that I have.

In 2006, my wife and I started Surgical Artistry which is mainly a plastic surgery practice.

That's interesting: Dr. Seiler is a Board Examiner and the Executive Director of the American Board of Laser Surgery and co-author of the ABLS examination text book and board certification exam.

As a single physician owner, how does your clinic operate?

My practice, Seiler Skin Cosmetic Laser Center, is a single physician driven cosmetic practice. I personally perform the laser and injectable procedures. I have a very good medical aesthetician working directly under me who helps patients with skincare programs, Hydrafacial, chemical peels, and laser hair removal. My wife is our marketing and website director and she is co-owner with me in the practice. We run the practice together, but we have an office manager that helps.  I perform fractional CO2, Fraxel, Thermage, Laser Hair Removal, Laser Spider Vein treatments, IPL, and others. Botox and Juvederm are the only injectables, although I have tried many others, I feel they are the best. Our practice is really the only one in Birmingham in which the physician specializes entirely in cosmetic laser procedures and nothing else, which really helps to offer the experience that I provide.
