Providing Care and Compassion in an Emergency

Gunshot wounds, heart attacks, a woman about to give birth. Adam Corley, MD, never knows what will happen next, but that’s why he loves his job as the Medical Director for Emergency Services at Brazosport Regional Health System.

“Providing life-saving emergency care is a critical part of my job, but so is reassuring the mother of a child with a 101 degree fever,” said Dr. Corley. “Emergency medicine is about caring and compassion and the opportunity to make a difference in someone’s life. I wouldn’t trade that for anything.”

Dr. Corley began his medical career as an orthopedic technician where his experience working with patients convinced him to become a doctor. He graduated from the University of Texas-Houston Medical School and chose emergency medicine because of its variety of cases and fast pace.
“Brazosport Regional is the only Level III Trauma Center in the area and we treat more than 33,000 patients a year,” said Dr. Corley. “We are quality and service oriented and I am proud of the way we care for each and every patient.”

Dr. Corley also serves as Regional Medical Director for EmCare, a leading provider of physician services.

The Allergy Clinic

Dust mite allergies, mold allergies, cat and dog allergies, pollen allergies. There is no end to the number of things that can cause allergies, making you sneeze, wheeze, cough and feel miserable. Relief comes in the form of Houston’s Top Docs at The Allergy Clinic.

Dr. David B. Engler, Dr. Alnoor A. Malick and Dr. Sunil K. Saraf are the medical minds behind The Allergy Clinic. They specialize in the treatment of allergies, asthma and immunology. Each is board certified by the American Board of Allergy and Immunology. While many allergists remain stagnant in their approach, using treatments that date back 20 to 30 years, The Allergy Clinic employs the latest advances in the diagnosis and treatment of allergies and asthma.

“We perform RUSH immunotherapy which allows patients to get the first 6 months of allergy shots all in one day. This provides relief much faster,” says Dr. Engler.

The Allergy Clinic has four locations, including the Texas Medical Center, Pasadena, Pearland and the Museum District.
“We often hear ‘these shots have changed my life.’ There is an enormous variability in how allergy shots are formulated and dosed,” Dr. Engler says. “We base our recipes on the latest published guidelines and balance that with the common sense that comes from years of experience. No one ‘nose’ allergies like we do TM.”

Dr. Kristi Sumpter, of Winds of Change Cosmetic Surgery, remains dedicated to the trust her patients place in her. “Cosmetic surgery is an important, personal decision. I’m working with their appearance, part of their identity, their body, their before and after. It’s a tremendous responsibility that I take seriously. ”
A talented and experienced surgeon, Sumpter feels strongly about making a connection with her patients. “You should like your surgeon,” Sumpter says. “A cosmetic surgeon should be approachable, have clear, open communication with a patient and build a relationship with each. Patients are great at telling a doctor what they want. A doctor has to listen. When all this is done right, the results and impact on the patient are phenomenal; what both the patient and I want them to be.”

Offering free consultations, Dr. Sumpter often spends 45 minutes or more with an initial consultation. The Winds of Change office emphasizes a relaxed, compassionate approach to cosmetic surgery.

Aldona J. Spiegel, MD

Aldona J. Spiegel, MD
Center for Breast Restoration

Recovering from breast cancer treatment can be a painful and overwhelming ordeal. Dr. Aldona J. Spiegel understands the anxiety and confusion that many women feel when faced with choosing a suitable breast reconstruction option.

Dr. Spiegel and her team know that the role of breast reconstruction is about much more than just replacing the lost breast(s). It is about restoring emotional well-being, and allowing women to emerge confidently from their breast cancer battle with a renewed sense of wellness. She provides the most advanced breast restoration procedures in a caring and supportive environment — allowing each woman to successfully complete rehabilitation from breast cancer.

Board Certified in Plastic Surgery, Dr. Spiegel has trained with leading reconstructive surgeons around the world. Her clinical expertise in breast reconstruction and microsurgery allows her to focus on innovative surgical techniques, such as muscle-preserving flaps: DIEP, SIEA, GAP, TUG, and the TAP for optimum results. Her commitment to advanced research combined with a strong desire to improve patient quality of life, have led to the development of sophisticated, new breast reconstruction techniques.

Dr. Spiegel is a highly requested speaker and teacher at national and international forums regarding her clinical and research interests. Her novel approach to sensory innervation has garnered much attention from the medical community. Dr. Spiegel’s recent work on sensation recovery with DIEP Flap neurotization is her latest achievement in the ongoing quest to provide the most complete form of breast restoration. The use of autologous tissue for reconstruction and reattaching nerves for reestablished sensation create natural-looking results that minimize the after effects of breast cancer on a woman’s body.

Dr. Spiegel serves as Director of the Center for Breast Restoration at The Methodist Hospital Institute for Reconstructive Surgery in Houston. Her vision combines a dedication to advanced research, exceptional education and the development of new, less invasive treatments.

Committed to outstanding, patient-focused care, Dr. Spiegel prepares the next generation of surgeons to meet the standards of excellence.

For the sixth consecutive year, Dr. Gary Kraus has been selected as an H Texas Top Doctor. By combining world-class treatment  with a compassionate and caring environment, the Kraus Back and Neck Institute provides the care which patients expect and deserve. “Patients come to me with serious problems. They may have severe pain in the back or neck, brain tumors or other issues. This can be very frightening for them. Restoring  their health and watching their progress is what I strive for. Helping a patient to achieve an excellent outcome is as rewarding to me now as it was the day I began practice.”
Dr. Gary Kraus has extensive experience (having performed over 3500 operations on the spine) with minimally invasive as well as traditional surgery on the spine and brain. He has practiced neurosurgery for 26 years, including residency and fellowship, and not only  stays current on the latest technologies, but he is helping to advance the science, with patents pending for minimally invasive surgical techniques on the spine. Dr. Kraus has years of expertise in more conservative non-surgical treatments of back and neck pain, including epidural pain injections and physical medicine. In addition to traditional brain surgery, Dr. Kraus is an expert on the Gamma Knife, a non-invasive device for treating brain tumors and facial pain, allowing the patient to return home the same day.

“It is truly exciting to participate in the advances of neurosurgery. The techniques and instruments have improved, and modern biologics allow for better healing. With modern techniques, patients can often return home a couple of hours after an operation. I treat patients the same way I would want to be treated.” Dr. Kraus, we think that says it all.

Dr. Kraus is Chairman of Neurosurgery at Memorial Hermann Memorial City Hospital. He is Director of Neurosciences and Gamma Knife at West Houston Medical Center. He is Assistant Clinical Professor, Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Texas Medical School at Houston. Dr. Kraus is board certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery, and is a Fellow of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons.

Nicholas A. Fiore II, MD, FACS
Cy-Fair Hand & Wrist Surgical Associates, PA

Dr. Fiore is double board certified in General Surgery and Surgery of the Hand. His passion and respect for the subspecialty of hand surgery began while wrestling for the Duke University Blue Devils. Fracturing his wrist, he never took the ability to perform simple tasks for granted again. After medical school at Ross University and surgery residency at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, Dr. Fiore completed the prestigious hand surgery fellowship at Baylor College of Medicine.

“50 years ago it might have been acceptable to see a general doctor for hand issues, but not today. The anatomy and treatment of the hand is so complex. If hand surgery is not your focus, it is difficult to keep up with current treatments.  I strive for using smaller incisions and minimally invasive techniques as patients have decreased pain and recovery time while providing a better cosmetic result.”

Dr. Fiore’s practice is devoted solely to surgery of the upper extremity with a focus on the hand and wrist. Conditions treated include, but are not limited to, carpal or cubital tunnel, trauma injuries, Dupuytren’s contracture, and arthritis. He is ‘in network’ for most private insurance and offers early office hour appointments for your convenience.

Museum District Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

MARK A. SCHUSTERMAN, M.D. F.A.C.S. & PATRICK W. HSU, M.D.

The Museum District Aesthetic Plastic Surgery doctors, Mark A. Schusterman, M.D., F.A.C.S., and Patrick W. Hsu, M.D., are two of Houstonians top picks for best plastic surgeons. Chosen not only for their masterful and artistic skills in recontouring patients’ bodies, but also for the compassionate and personal attention they give to their patients.
Drs. Schusterman and Hsu earned their reputation in part due to a strong pull to work with breast cancer patients undergoing reconstructive surgeries as well as patients recovering from traumatic, scarring events.

“Working with people in crisis, such as cancer patients, takes empathy, compassion and care. The spirit and emotions of the patient need as much attention as the body for healing to be successful,” says Dr. Schusterman. “We understand this and apply it to all of our patients.”

In addition to being breast specialists, the doctors also specialize in Smartlipo Triplex, an advanced, minimally invasive form of liposuction that “melts away” fat, leaving patients with dramatic body changes almost instantly. The procedure can be applied to almost any area, is done in the office, leaves little scarring and patients typically recover within a couple of days.

The doctors also offer breast augmentations, breast reductions, breast lifts, facial and skin rejuvenation, obesity surgery, body contouring, vein treatment and more. Both doctors are board certified in plastic surgery, are frequent lecturers and have authored a number of articles and text books.

“Most important to us is our patients’ safety and well being. We take the time to make sure you are completely informed about the procedure,” says Dr. Hsu. “This way, you leave our office more secure and confident about your choices.”

Anthony Perri, M.D.

“Texas Raised and Texas Trained.” As a child growing up in Corsicana, Dr. Anthony Perri learned the importance of early detection of skin cancer, as his own father was diagnosed with melanoma. Fortunately, the melanoma was treated before it had become more advanced and his father is alive and well today due to a skin cancer screening.

As a Board Certified Dermatologist, Dr. Perri treats all skin conditions and is committed to ensuring patients do not have to wait weeks – or even months – for an appointment. He maintains an open access policy with several appointments reserved each day so patients can be seen immediately if they are concerned about a changing skin lesion or a severe rash. Dr. Perri’s practice has also eliminated many of the traditional barriers to dermatology access, as his clinic is open 8AM to 8PM during the week and on select Saturday mornings.

Dr. Perri attended medical school in Houston at Baylor College of Medicine where he graduated with Honors and was inducted into the prestigiouis Alpha Omega Alpha medical honor society. Just a few years after graduating as Chief Resident of Dermatology at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Dr Perri has become Chief of the Dermatology section at Sadler Clinic and is quickly becoming regarded as one of the pre-eminent dermatologists in the Houston area.

Dr. Perri has two convenient offices at Sadler Clinic: Pinecroft Drive in The Woodlands and at League Line Road in Conroe. He is committed to educating the public about dermatology and maintains a daily dermatology blog on his website at TheWoodlandsDermatology.com and Facebook.com/TheWoodlandsDermatology.

Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery

Unlike many top plastic surgeons, Dr. Vitenas has been able to build a practice which provides a superior level of quality in surgical results, service and care.

Delivering natural results in cosmetic plastic surgery requires a combination of rigorous training, years of experience, and an artistic eye. With the focus of medical school being so concentrated in math and science it is not an environment that draws many artistically inclined candidates and graduates even less.

In his 22 years of private practice Dr. Vitenas has proven his ability to deliver natural results to thousands of happy patients. The quality of service and care are of equal importance to him and it shows from the moment you call the office. His vision is for each patient to receive the same experience within his office. An experience which begins the moment you first make contact with the office and that lasts a lifetime. The patient reviews online say it all, Dr. Vitenas has achieved his vision.

EDUCATION: Tulane University, BS; Tulane University School of Medicine, MD; Tulane Medical Center, Residency in general and plastic surgery; University of Miami and Paris, France Fellowship.

AWARDS: Patients Choice Award 2010, 2011; Distinguished member National Council of Leaders in Breast Aesthetics; Top Doctor 2011, 2012 by RealSelf.com; Most Compassionate Doctor Award, 2010 and 2011 by Vitals.com.

Lee Steely, MD, FACS
Steely Plastic Surgery

Dr. Steely is a rare find among both plastic surgeons and physicians in general.  In a time of assembly-line medicine, Dr. Steely and his staff have successfully combined mastery of cutting-edge techniques with old-school attention to individualized care.

Dr. Steely is double-board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery, and limits his practice to rejuvenative and cosmetic surgery of the face, breast, and body. Dr. Steely and his staff believe that concentrating exclusively on the cosmetic side of plastic surgery allows them to excel in providing the best possible care and outcome for each patient.

Every patient is unique, so every rejuvenative solution recommended is a unique distillation of over ten years of experience designed to achieve the best possible results, delivered with care, compassion, and expertise.  A cosmetic procedure is a luxurious treat and the patient experience at Steely Plastic Surgery reflects this belief.  From keeping wait time to a minimum, to giving the patient as much time with Dr. Steely as necessary, to watchful scrutiny throughout the recovery period – the entire patient experience at Steely Plastic Surgery has been carefully constructed to deliver the best experience available.  We invite you to visit our office and see what a cosmetic surgery experience should be.
