Providing Appropriate Patient Care

I would like to thank Dr. Van Woensel for his article,¹ in which he politely and thoroughly reminds the thousands of fellow CDA members—and the many more professionals who read JCDA online—of our obligations to appropriate patient care.

At a time when far too much emphasis is being placed by many in our profession on “elective” treatments (i.e., Botox, fillers), the core message of good decision-making needs to be inhaled daily by all of us.
