Dr. Eric Okamoto Serving Residents of the East Bay - Fremont,
San Jose, Pleasanton, Danville, Walnut Creek, and Oakland

After graduating from Stanford University with a Bachelor’s Degree in 1968, Dr. Eric Okamoto went on to receive his medical degree from UCLA in 1972. His first specialty training was in Otolaryngology (Ear/Nose/Throat) at Stanford. In 1979, he achieved Board Certification in this field. Later, he trained as a plastic surgeon at the University of Wisconsin in Madison – this led to his Board Certification for this specialty in 1984 and also admission to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. (For those who are unfamiliar with “Board Certification,” you will gain insight into this designation by visiting the website for the American Board of Medical Specialties, www.abms.org - there you will learn about the rigorous standards imposed by the ABMS.) Demonstrating both interest and skill in cosmetic surgery, Dr. Okamoto became a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons in 1988, a well-respected organization to which the most esteemed cosmetic surgeons in America belong.

Since 1983, Dr. Eric Okamoto has been in private practice as a plastic surgeon in Fremont, California. Although he has had extensive training and experience in reconstructive surgery, his practice has been dedicated to cosmetic plastic surgery since 1991.

Forty-five minutes to an hour are set aside for the initial cosmetic consultation with our plastic surgeon. This usually provides ample time for analysis and discussion regarding the topic of interest. Most patients comment on how informative these sessions have been. You will see that no pressure is exerted upon you to sign up for surgery until you are well prepared for this decision. We believe that during your consultation, you will understand that certain principles serve as guideposts for your care:

• Patient respect (compassion, courtesy, kindness, careful listening)
• Safety
• Understanding that every patient presents unique problems that require individualized approaches
• A natural look as a surgical goal
• Service and availability
• A plastic surgeon who constantly updates his body of knowledge and is informed about most of the latest trends in the field
