SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY--(Marketwired - Apr 25, 2013) - Dr. Steven Yarinsky, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Saratoga Springs, NY, recently received a Compassionate Doctor certification for 2012. Awarded by Patients' Choice based on patient feedback, the prestigious nomination honors physicians from across the country who demonstrated an exemplary degree of kindness to their patients. In regard to his recognition, Dr. Yarinsky says: "This is quite an honor for me and for my staff, for without their help I could not provide our exceptional level of quality service and care. I am very pleased to have been selected and grateful to my patients who went out of their way to rate me and give me a positive review."

According to the Patients' Choice website, more than 200,000 patients nationwide provide feedback about dentists and physicians every month. In addition to written reviews, visitors to sites like Vitals, UCompareHealthCare, and Patients' Choice are able to rate their physicians in a variety of categories including ease of appointment, accurate diagnosis, bedside manner, and follow up care, among others. Furthermore, patients are often prompted to give their physicians an overall rating, taking into account every aspect of care they received. Based solely on exceptional overall and bedside manner ratings, Patients' Choice selected only 3% of 870,000 active doctors to receive the 2012 Compassionate Doctor certification.

A two-time recipient of the Compassionate Doctor certification, Dr. Yarinsky offers a comprehensive variety of procedures ranging from facial cosmetic surgery and breast augmentation, to body contouring and BOTOX® injections. He performs every cosmetic procedure right in his office facility and allows patients to recover in the comforts of their own homes whenever possible.
