5 Questions with Dr. Gerard Mosiello
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
New Tampa

What can patients expect when they walk through the doors of your office?

Patients can expect a warm welcome and a true respect for their time. Our appointments are prompt with very minimal wait time. We have transitioned to electronic medical records and now patients can fill out their medical history information on the computer from the comfort of their home, eliminating the need to spend additional time filling out paperwork in the office. The patient can also expect my undivided attention for the consultation as we do not double-book appointments and the consultations are done by me personally.

What challenges do you face in your everyday practice?

One thing to remember about plastic surgery, no matter how common place it may be, it is still surgery. The patient’s health and safety are of utmost importance to me and I always reinforce that to my patients.

I think educating a patient about the benefits and limitations of surgery can be challenging. Once a patient has been educated by me about the procedure, there is a better chance of realistic expectations.

I try to get into the minds of my patients to ensure that their perceptions of their appearance are true and they have a clear understanding as to what surgery can and cannot accomplish. My goal is to ensure that the patient achieves the optimum clinical result possible for their individual set of concerns.

How do you ensure the best possible results for your patients?

Performing my surgeries at accredited facilities with highly trained staff affords my patients excellent care. Equally as important to achieving the best possible results is proper patient preparation and education. The consultation and preoperative visits prepare the patient for what to expect from the surgery and educate them to make the recovery a smooth process.

One thing we do at our practice is provide extensive consultations. At that visit, I meet with you and we will talk about the procedure, I will show you pictures, I will show you products, we will discuss your goals and I will examine you to determine the best course of action . . . but that’s not the last time that you see me. You then come back for a preoperative visit 2-3 weeks before your procedure and you will have time to ask all your lingering questions and have them answered by me.

What can your patients expect after surgery?

They can be sure that they have been well prepared and educated as to the guidelines to follow to achieve the best possible results. The medication regimen I prescribe helps to minimize postoperative infections and minimize pain and discomfort. For certain procedures, postoperative garments are chosen to maximize results.

Consistent aftercare is also a benefit for my patients. I am the only doctor in the practice so they can expect they will always see me for all of their postoperative visits, no matter how many visits they may require. I say to my patients, “I’m the only doctor in this office, and if there’s a problem, I carry a beeper at all times. If you call me and I think you need to be seen at 4:00 on a Saturday morning, I’ll meet you.”

Additionally, my office staff is very supportive and encouraging to all our patients and your calls will be answered personally and professionally without delay.

How important is it to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon?

Patients need to do their homework and realize that many health care providers are now performing plastic surgery procedures, but that does not mean they are all qualified to perform plastic surgery. American Board of Plastic Surgery certified surgeons are highly skilled and trained in cosmetic and reconstructive procedures of all types for the face and body.  We are proud to be the Board Certified Plastic Surgeon New Tampa and Wesley Chapel patients can rely on for exceptional care.

I love Tampa Palms Plastic Surgery ~ Dr. Moseillo, Mary, Nancy & Paula. I had breast cancer and reconstruction with Dr. Moseillo several years ago and knew I would never let anyone perform surgery on me other than him. I decided I wanted to do an Upper Blepharoplasty (upper eyelid surgery). I had the surgery a few months ago, am now at my summer home in Maine and everyone is commenting on how great I look. They have no idea that I had anything done! I keep hearing, “you have amazing eyes”. I am so thrilled with the results, feel 10 years younger and if you’re thinking about this procedure, or any other for that matter, do not hesitate to go to Tampa Palms

Dr. Mosiello, plain and simply put , is the BEST ! I did a lot of research and he was the one I chose and am very thankful and grateful that I did, as I had consulted with other plastic surgeons from other cancer centers. Dr. Mosiello surpassed in every area. He and his staff truly care and are warm, friendly, compassionate and knowledgeable. Which takes the stress out of any pre surgery or procedure. Knowing you have the best surgeon in your corner is the most important part. Post surgical procedures look amazing and he has saved my life, and has made me whole again. Look no further, he IS the best.

Dr. Mosiello taught me how to live again after having breast cancer. His staff is truly a blessing. He is an amazing artist and a wonderful Doctor and friend.

Susan Harrigan

I came to Dr. Mosiello’s practice as a reluctant patient who had just been given the diagnosis of breast cancer. I have been in several doctors’ office’s during my diagnosis and treatment and Dr. Mosiello’s office is my favorite. He is a very kind, competent surgeon who patiently answered questions and explained things fully. I was given clear post op directions and checked on by the nurse before my first post op visit and someone was always available if I had a question or concern. His staff is amazing! Melissa, Paula, Mary and Carol are all very personable and caring. This is also an office where I did not wait long periods of time to be seen. Things run smoothly and timely. I would highly recommend Dr. Mosiello to anyone in need of a plastic surgeon.
