DESCRIPTION

Blue Water Plastic Surgery is seeking a Surgical & Clinic Registered Nurse for our award-winning cosmetic surgery center.

Dr. Law and his team treat each patient like they are a close friend or family member. They are selective about who is a candidate for surgery and every detail is carefully considered. Anesthesia is administered by a board-certified MD anesthesiologist. Safety, patient comfort and consistently excellent outcomes are the highest priorities of Dr. Law and his team. The OR is set up like a spacious hospital OR. However, each piece of equipment is hand selected by Dr. Law, and each team member works together to create a positive and cohesive environment. Patients enter and exit through a first-floor private entrance where they will never be in a public lobby, parking lot or elevator and will never encounter a member of the public.
