Patients researching plastic surgery don't start with Google. They start scrolling — and they're making a shortlist before they ever book a consult. The surgeon they've seen, heard, and come to trust on social is the surgeon they call. Right now that's not Dr. Waltzman. The content program fixes that — with a specific focus on surgical procedures, not the med spa side.

surgeons in the US performing the Preserve procedure — Dr. Waltzman is one
3s
to stop the scroll — the first three seconds determine everything
Put the surgeon front and center. Not the practice. Not the med spa. Dr. Waltzman — his expertise, his opinions, his outcomes. A patient choosing a surgeon for a breast augmentation or lift is making a high-trust, high-consideration decision. The content that wins that decision is content where the doctor is already a known entity. That's what we're building.
01
Surgical Expertise
The Preserve procedure. What separates a good result from a great one. Decisions other surgeons make that Dr. Waltzman wouldn't. Content that earns saves because it tells patients something they actually need to know.
02
Patient Stories
Anonymized surgical journeys — the hesitation, the decision, the outcome. Narrative-led content that meets patients where they are emotionally, before they're ready to book.
03
Industry Takes
What patients get wrong when choosing a surgeon. Common advice online that doesn't hold up. The things Dr. Waltzman says in consults that most surgeons won't say publicly. Low production overhead, high authority signal.
04
Addressing the Decision
Patients don't lead with "I want surgery." They lead with a feeling — self-consciousness, a decade of hesitation, a life event. Content that speaks to that moment positions Dr. Waltzman as the answer before the search even starts.

Monthly Production Day
Add-on
One day at the practice each month. One camera setup, phones for b-roll, our director on-site. Dr. Waltzman focuses on the content — we handle the shoot.

  • Full production day at your Long Beach practice
  • Single-camera setup + phone-based b-roll capture
  • On-site direction — Dr. Waltzman talks, we direct
  • Multiple setups and locations within the practice
  • Enough footage to load 4–6 weeks of content per shoot

Why it matters

  • Self-filming creates awkward footage that undersells the surgeon

  • Quarterly cadence available as an alternative
