Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) August 13, 2014

In response to a rapidly growing Hispanic patient population, The Bitar Cosmetic Surgery Institute has launched a Spanish language cosmetic surgery website to enhance overall patient experience within the Spanish speaking community. In addition to the website, The Bitar Institute has increased the number of Spanish speaking staff members, furthering efforts to provide better service and care for this demographic group.

“We have seen a huge increase in the last two years in the number of Spanish speaking patients that call and visit our office," said Dr. George Bitar, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Medical Director at the Bitar Cosmetic Surgery Institute. “The population of the Northern Virginia area is very multi-cultural, and our goal is to grow and evolve with our community and clientele.”

National statistics support this growing trend. According to The American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Hispanics had nearly 1.5 million cosmetic plastic surgery procedures in 2010. Hispanics led all minority groups in the number of procedures performed in 2010, comprising 11 percent of the 13.1 million cosmetic plastic surgery total.

“Fifty percent of our staff is fluent in Spanish including myself,” said Dr. Robert Centeno MD, FACS, MBA. “Our staff understands the individual needs and cosmetic preferences of this and other ethnic and racial groups very well. Our experience, expertise and understanding are crucial to our ability to provide the best care and service possible.”
