Dr Darrell Perkins FRACS Specialist Plastic Surgeon Sydney NSW

An important part of Dr. Perkins’ role as a surgeon is to educate his patients, giving them all the information and time that they need to make an informed decision for themselves. He has a wealth of experience, and it is his job to offer expert advice so that a consensus can be reached between surgeon and patient. This necessitates extensive discussion about pros and cons of particular procedures, potential pitfalls and complications, as well as expert analysis of the particular concerns or problems of the patient.

Dr. Perkins never attempts to make decisions for his patients. Personal factors are always an important part of the decision-making process. Dr. Perkins’ job is to listen and understand, assisting the patient in making the best decision for him or herself.

It is also Dr. Perkins’ job to convey realistic expectations about the possible outcomes of plastic surgery. To this end he makes extensive use of pre- and post-operative photographs of both ood and average plastic surgery results.
