Patient Information
Surgical Facilities:
Most of our outpatient procedures are performed at the Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) on the campus of the Medical Center Clinic. The professional team at the ASC pride themselves in offering the highest standard of care not only for patients but also family members.
The experienced anesthesia staff of physicians and nurse anesthetists is second to none. They can provide all levels of sedation from simply taking the nervous edge off of a procedure to a full general anesthetic.
We think you will agree this is a great place to have surgery.
For the patient who may need to stay in the hospital overnight, West Florida Hospital has 12 state-of-the-art surgical suites, opened in 2002. These are the same suites where complicated heart and brain surgeries are performed every day so you can be assured that your safety is at the top of the priority list.

Consultation:
Dr. Frost’s goal in the consultation is education without any attempt to “sell” cosmetic surgery. Dr. Frost tries to understand what you want to change and then find a way to accomplish your goals. He has always felt that he has done his job equally well if you decide not to proceed with surgery as if you decide to have a total makeover.
The consultation begins with a simple introduction and a review of your medical history. The next part of the consultation is up to you. We want to hear your hopes and desires. Whether it is for a younger neck, less tired looking eyes, larger breasts or to get rid of your mother’s chin, we want to hear what you hope to achieve.
The next step is the physical examination to understand our starting point. From there we can give you an idea of what procedures may be best suited to your goals. We can look at photos of other patients who had similar procedures and discuss what we may be able to achieve for you.
The consultation is for you so please ask questions. If you have more questions after you leave, please call or come back for a complimentary, follow-up consultation. We want you to be educated.
At the conclusion of the consultation, we hope you have a realistic expectation of what can be achieved and, just as important, what can NOT be achieved with the many procedures that are available in the always advancing world of cosmetic surgery.
