Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using implants or fat transfer. Ideal for women seeking fuller contours, this procedure addresses asymmetry or volume loss post-pregnancy. Dr. Bain prioritizes natural results by tailoring implant selection and placement to each patient's anatomy, ensuring balanced, long-lasting outcomes while minimizing complications through meticulous surgical techniques.
Facelift Surgery
Facelift surgery restores a youthful appearance by tightening skin and underlying tissues. Targeting sagging jowls, deep creases, and neck laxity, Dr. Bain employs customized techniques to address individual aging patterns. The goal is natural, refreshed results that avoid an over-pulled look, achieved through precise incisions and layered tissue support for durable, subtle enhancement.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty refines nasal shape and improves breathing function. Dr. Bain addresses concerns like humps, asymmetry, or tip irregularities while preserving structural integrity. By balancing aesthetic goals with airway optimization, he creates harmonious results that enhance facial symmetry and proportion, using both open and closed techniques tailored to each patient's unique needs.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery flattens the abdomen by removing excess skin and tightening muscles. Commonly sought post-pregnancy or weight loss, this procedure addresses diastasis recti and stubborn fat deposits. Dr. Bain combines liposuction with muscle repair to achieve a sculpted core, emphasizing scar minimization and natural contours for a rejuvenated, functional abdominal profile.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes localized fat deposits to enhance body contours. Effective for areas like the abdomen, thighs, or back, this procedure is not a weight-loss solution but a precision tool for shaping. Dr. Bain uses advanced techniques to ensure smooth results and skin retraction, focusing on proportionality and avoiding aggressive fat removal to maintain natural aesthetics.

I am writing in regards to the horrible treatment my step-father received from Dr. Bain, and it is important that others know how crass and heartless this man is. My step-father was going to Dr. Bain to help him with a terrible bedsore that he was suffering with, that was not going away. One of his follow up sessions, Dr. Bain came into the room, barely looked at his wound, and said it looked "shitty" and I then asked him how long before it would go away. Dr. Bain then replied, "Until he dies." This is not what you say to a client who is suffering from cancer, and trying everything he can to get better.

And if he did feel it was something he couldn't treat, why would he have him come in for multiple follow up sessions? For money. Plain and simple. I feel someone with this kind of bedside manner should not be able to practice medicine, no matter how much schooling and experience he has received. I hope others do not have to deal with this, and maybe this writeup will help to deter them from going to see such a mean-spirited doctor.

He is such a. do NOT go there. He didn't examine me at all. He was extremely rude with no bed manners whatsoever. He yelled at me and basically took off.

I recently took a friend of mine to the ER and was referred to Dr. Bain for a wound. To say this doctor has absolutely no bed side manner is an understatement. He treated my friend the first time and came across very to the point and unfriendly. His kind nurses do the majority of he work in that office. The second and last visit consisted of him coming into the room, not remembering why my friend was there, looking at the wounds and then saying your healed and walked away.

He did not given my friend any recommendations on preventing the issue from occurring or anything. No thanking her or wishing her well. He was in the room for 30 seconds. He was extremely rude. I can't believe how he treats his patients. The nurses rock though. So sweet and caring.

Dr. Bain is a bombastic, condescending man. He may have a great deal of medical knowledge, but it would be impossible to benefit from that while also reeling from his aggressive, demeaning assaults and uninformed guidance. The hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)that the practice offers may be highly indicated for your wound care. Dr. Bain makes every effort to make sure you utilize every session that your insurance will pay for.

If there is a question about seeking weekend hyperbaric treatment (not offered by the practice) the answer is unequivocally a no (despite the touting of the extreme importance of going to HBOT everyday!). I suggest finding an altetnative doctor run practice with HBOT. My advice is: Do not subject yourself to such uncaring, ego and money-driven and medical care.

I have been to Dr Bain for two different leg ulcers. He has the very best staff. They are knowledgeable and pleasant. It took a long time for those sores to heal. I have another one so will be returning soon. I wouldn't even consider any one else. He knows what to do and even though he has a bit of a dry sense of humor I like him and better yet I trust him.

Dr. Bain treated my elderly father for a skin tear at the Wound Care center. He and his staff were very nice and funny. The jokes made us feel like people in the office like Dr. Bain and it made my dad more comfortable. My dad's wound healed much better than expected.
