When you walk through the door, you feel as though you have entered a Beverly Hills spa. The music is soft; a fountain gurgles; the art is beautiful; and the surroundings are luxurious. But it isn't a spa. It's Edina Plastic Surgery's new clinic and surgical center in the Southdale Medical Building at 6525 France Avenue South in Edina—just across the street from Fairview Southdale Hospital.

Dr. William Carter, founder of the four-surgeon practice, emphasizes the value of the new medi-spa to patients. "We are very proud of being able offer our patients the highest level of privacy and comfort. Our patients come to us because of our skill and experience, but we also want our patients to feel warm and well cared for. They will enjoy the experience of a spa environment rather than the cold starkness of a medical office." Each year Dr. Carter and his colleagues, Dr. Nathan Leigh, Dr. Robert Wilke and Dr. Michael Philbin help hundreds of patients feel more beautiful.

The Edina Plastic Surgery medi-spa offers patients a full range of cosmetic procedures, an on-site surgical center for privacy and peace of mind, the latest technology, and a skin care salon. The physicians are board certified in plastic surgery, and the medical team is well known for its expertise and professionalism.
