Highly renowned Stanford University Medical School produces some of the finest doctors in the world. One such doctor is Patrick Bitter Jr, M.D, a dermatologist known for going that extra mile to create a comfortable, positive and effective experience for his patients. With a private practice in Los Gatos, California, a small city in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains, Dr. Patrick Bitter Jr. specializes in skin cancer surgery, dermatology and cosmetic surgery. His impressive list of credentials includes his being a Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology, the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery and the American Society of Lasers in Medicine and Surgery. A member of the American, California and Santa Clara County Medical Associations, Dr. Bitter is a frequent lecturer for the American Cancer Society.
Certified by the American Board of Dermatology, Dr. Bitter spends his professional life in Los Gatos, California, improving the lives of others with the aid of cutting edge technology that includes his own personal touch, as well as his own personal and inventive treatments. If the term, “miracle worker” wasn’t such an overused term, it would be used here to describe Dr. Bitter. Suffice it to say that he truly does work wonders for his patients.
Rather than asking patients to rearrange their lives just to accommodate extended treatment recovery times for conditions such as roacea or sun spots, Dr. Bitter has developed breakthrough treatment techniques that result in fast, effective improvements. With Dr. Bitter, gone are the weeks of recovery time that used to take away from his patients’ lives. The procedure is called the FotoFacial treatment and involves the use of laser light flashes to produce dramatic differences in the appearances of his patients’ skin.
The FotoFacial procedure lasts approximately 30 minutes, wherein intense light pulses are applied in a manner that penetrates deep into the skin. While a small amount of minor discomfort has been reported, the procedure is virtually pain free. It causes blood vessels and collagen to constrict below the epidermis and this reduces age lines and redness. The benefits of this treatment happen gradually during the weeks that follow. Eventually, patients notice excellent results with rejuvenated, soother skin that shows a more even coloration and tone.
Dr. Bitter does an excellent job in treating commonly occurring skin conditions associated with the aging process, or those that simply result from an excessive amount of time spent in the sun. Symptoms such as redness, flushing or unsightly age spots are effectively removed with Dr. Bitter’s unique and non-evasive treatment methods. Thanks to Dr. Bitter, there is no longer a point for anyone to look older than he or she feels. As a competent skin specialist, when Dr. Bitter lacked the tools that were needed to do the job in the way that he envisioned, he invented newer and better ones.
The thing that sets Patrick Bitter Jr. apart from other doctors is his focus on his patients’ overall health. So many others treat their patients in impersonal ways, not really taking the time to get to know them and rushing them right out the door so they can get to their next money making opportunity. Dr. Bitter does not practice medicine that way. He takes as long as is needed to ascertain all of the information from each patient that it takes to get the treatment done correctly.
Patients who visit Dr. Bitter’s office are presented with an informative, congenial visit that covers all the bases in terms of what and what not to expect. The doctor remains available to listen to each patient’s concerns about any prospective treatment and has the magical ability to quell any fears with his ability to knowledgably answer any questions the patient might have. His talent and gifted spirit allow him to bring out the best features in each of his patients. Dr. Bitter’s enormous talent transforms the lives of his patients, leaving them feeling better about themselves than ever before. Over more than twenty years, Dr. Bitter has touched the lives of many patients and has enhanced their abilities to go through life feeling better about themselves than ever before.
