SACRAMENTO PLASTIC SURGERY PRACTICE USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO CONNECT WITH PATIENTS

Facebook and other types of social media have made it easier to stay connected more easily than ever before. Chrysalis Cosmetics, a practice offering plastic surgery in Sacramento and surrounding areas, has established a Facebook page to reach out to former, current, and prospective patients.

Sacramento, CA (Vocus) January 27, 2010 -- The advent of social media has revolutionized the ways in which we communicate with others. Photos and videos can be shared with a click of a button, and messages can be exchanged quickly and easily. Dr. Charles Perry, a Sacramento facelift and breast augmentation surgeon, says he is now recognizing the benefits of enhancing his practice’s online presence through the popular social networking site Facebook.

Dr. Perry created a Facebook page for his practice, Chrysalis Cosmetics, so that people who are interested in cosmetic surgery can learn about the treatments that are available to them. Dr. Perry says Facebook also provides a fun, informative, and engaging way to interact with him, his staff, and other patients. On Dr. Perry’s Facebook page, users can post comments, view before-and-after videos, and read what other patients have to say about their experiences at Chrysalis Cosmetics. Testimonial videos are posted so that users can actually see and hear other patients talk about the results of their procedures.

The Facebook page for Chrysalis Cosmetics also gives patients an opportunity to learn about happenings at the practice. Dr. Perry and his staff participated in the Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk® and the Run to Feed the Hungry last fall, and photos and videos from these events are posted on the Sacramento breast augmentation and plastic surgery practice’s Facebook page.

Facebook is just one of the methods that patients can use to stay in touch with Dr. Perry. He also provides his cell phone number to patients so that they can reach him at any time of the day, even during times when the practice is closed. “\'Our patients’\' needs are very important to us. One of the most important things that we can do is communicate effectively and openly to meet those needs.”

In addition to his Facebook page, Dr. Perry maintains a website with detailed information on all of the procedures that he offers and a blog with regular updates on recent trends and techniques. Dr. Perry says the website also includes links to his practice’s pages on You Tube and Twitter, two more ways of communicating with patients in the ever-evolving world of social media.
