Procedure pages on the practice's own site. The site shows no eyelid before-and-after gallery.

Training and board certification

  • The site states she founded Catalyst Medical Center over twenty-five years ago and is "a Stanford-educated, triple board-certified physician and surgeon" (source). The site does not name the three boards, her medical school or her residency.
  • The plastic surgery page states she has more than 20 years of experience (source).
  • The team page describes facial plastic surgery, a specialty within otolaryngology, as her main focus (source).
  • She leads the clinic's ENT team for children and adults (source).
  • Community roles: Dakota Medical Foundation, TedXFargo and The Choice Financial Board.

Eyelid surgery work

The plastic surgery page (source) lists "Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)" and "Brow Lift" among her cosmetic procedures. The team page lists brow lifts and eyelid surgery within her facial plastic surgery work (source).

  • Booking: patients start by emailing wecare@catalystmedicalcenter.com with photos of the front and both sides of the face.
  • Consultation: covers goals, medical history and treatment options, including non-surgical alternatives such as injectables and lasers offered at the clinic.

The site has no separate blepharoplasty or brow lift page, does not name eyelid surgery techniques, and has no before-and-after gallery.

Other procedures

The plastic surgery page also lists neck lift and facelift, chin implant, cosmetic rhinoplasty, otoplasty, fat transfer, lip lift, ear lobe repair and skin cancer reconstruction. The team page adds birthmark removal by laser or surgery and buccal fat removal. The clinic also offers ENT and sleep care, allergy, dermatology, vein care, women's health and family medicine, and the Catalyst Clinical Spa offers injectables, lasers and facials (catalystclinicalspa.com).

Insurance and cost

  • The plastic surgery page footer states: "We accept most major medical insurance plans and Medicare." Referrals are not needed unless the insurance plan requires one (source).
  • The site does not state whether insurance covers eyelid surgery and publishes no prices.

Recovery

  • The plastic surgery FAQ states recovery time varies with the procedure, and final results often develop over the weeks and months after surgery as swelling subsides (source). The site gives no eyelid-specific recovery times.

Medicare eyelid operations, 2022 to 2024

From CMS, Medicare Physician and Other Practitioners by Provider and Service, NPI 1952469165. Medicare pays only when the lids block vision, so these are the medical cases. Cosmetic eyelid surgery is paid by the patient and is not in this record. CMS leaves out any code billed fewer than 11 times in a year.
