Clinical Trials New Jersey Plastic Surgery

Featured on 2020 America’s Best Doctor List by America’s Best and Findatopdoc.com

Our office has established a state of the art Clinical Research Center offering an expanded list of clinical research and development services to established companies and start-up entities in the pharmaceutical, devices, nutraceuticals, over the counter, consumer products, and cosmetics arenas.

Our goal is to help improve people’s lives by helping bring revolutionary new products and services to the market, that improve quality of life and address unmet need around the world. In a heavily regulated environment, we work diligently under the auspices of Good Clinical Practices (GCP), while adhering to science-based research.

The newly established New Jersey Clinical Research Center is operated by Dr. Barry DiBernardo, New Jersey Plastic Surgery with collaborations from Trial Management Consulting Group LLC. Together, we put medicine, quality and compliance in everything we do.

Why Research?

Clinical Research are used to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a new product or device not yet approved for marketing. Such research provides for the information needed to support the approval of a product into the marketplace. In humans, research helps healthcare professionals identify mechanisms of action, product performance and safety in ways the animal or lab testing model can not provide.

Why Should I Join A Clinical Trial?

Clinical studies (or in human testing) require volunteers from diverse populations be included (i.e., gender, age, demographic location, ethnicities, etc) in order to obtain well represented product exposure and results.

By volunteering to participate in a research study, you can:

• Benefit society by helping researchers find better treatments for you and others in the future
• Help researchers discover better ways to fight diseases or address unmet need
• Help researchers determine if a product(s) is safe for human use/exposure
• Help researchers understand how different people process medicines or products in different ways

What are the risks?

The products being tested may be a new product entity (i.e., drug, technology, cosmetic product, or nutrient) thereby the safety profile is unknown and may result in expected or unexpected side effects.

In other instances, a marketed product may be used in a clinical study to test its equivalence to a new product, or to evaluate a new formulation for a new indication. In rare cases, side effects can be serious or even life-threatening. It is important to know that all expected or unexpected side effects are closely monitored and managed by the study doctor until the event resolves or stabilizes. In summary, the treatments being tested typically have not yet received FDA approval for sales and marketing.

Do I Qualify For A Clinical Trial?

In clinical research, every study is different in what is being tested and why, therefore, each study will be driven by a set of eligibility criteria that must be met in order for a subject to qualify for a study.

After evaluating for studies that have “Open Enrollment” status, the study doctor, or a designated study staff member will perform a review of the study in detail and respective eligibility criteria for the study, in order to determine if you qualify. This is called the consenting process where you will have the opportunity to ask questions to see if you still want to take part in the study.

How Many Office Visits Should I Expect?

Study visits are dependent on study requirements. Your study doctor or designated staff member will present this information during the consenting process to help you decide if you wish to participate in the study.

What Kind Of Clinical Trials Are Available?

Clinical trials vary greatly and there are always new research opportunities available to our patients. For more information on these opportunities as well as requirements to enroll, please call us at (973) 509-2000 .

When it comes to your appearance, never settle for second best.

Message to My Patients: Our Mission at Spiro Plastic Surgery

I want every patient to know that they are one of a kind. I work tirelessly on their behalf to keep them as safe as possible while simultaneously helping them achieve their desired goals. I infuse an artist’s vision with every surgical plan and procedure. The results speak for themselves, as shown in the before-and-after galleries and testimonials on this site.

My staff and I strive to deliver the highest level of excellence in the care we provide and exceed patient expectations, whether it’s in a surgical procedure or a treatment in our award-winning medical spa . Patients have traveled from more than 25 states and 17 different countries for our surgical treatment because of our results and our affirming approach to care. We want to give everyone an uplifting, transformative experience they’ll remember for the rest of their life.

Learn Why Dr. Spiro Approaches Every Procedure Like a Work of Art

A conversation with dr. spiro, why or how did you decide on a career in medicine and aesthetic surgery.

I have always had an interest in visual and performing arts and sciences. As I grew through my teens and 20s, I pursued art as a hobby and surgery as a career. Plastic surgery and aesthetics, in particular, became a natural way for me to blend art with the practice of medicine.

What do you find most fulfilling about your work?

Having the opportunity every day to plan and perform aesthetic surgery, is the ultimate expression of what I call “living art.” Using my abilities to make people happy and satisfy long-held goals is particularly satisfying.

What would you like new patients to know about you?

I am a hard worker and a very down-to-earth person. Too many people who have attained the career achievements I have reached are unrelatable and distant. I love people, and there should be more kindness in the world. I want to be a positive influence in patients’ lives.

Dr. Spiro received his M.D. from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, New Jersey Medical School in 1988. He did his surgical internship at Stony Brook University Hospital   in New York followed by four more years of general surgery residency, including a chief residency in general surgery at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, NJ, in 1993.

He then went to Miami, Florida, where he completed his plastic surgery training at the University of Miami School of Medicine under the world-famous plastic surgeon Dr. Ralph Millard Jr., M.D. Dr. Spiro chose to add to his training by doing an additional fellowship in craniofacial plastic surgery at Miami Children’s Hospital, Cedars Medical Center, and the University of Miami under S.A. Wolfe M.D. In 1996, Dr. Spiro began his private practice in plastic surgery affiliated with St. Barnabas and has remained in this location for the past 27 years.
