Proudly serves over 4000 patients
FACEMED opened in 2017 under ownership and management of Monica Berrange Nurse Practitioner who has been providing expert medical aesthetic treatments in Essex since 2004.
Nowadays, FACEMED is proud to serve both private and NHS patients from Essex and beyond. In 2019 FACEMED introduced NHS podiatric day surgery. Surgical patients are operated on weekly for foot and ankle surgery such as bunions, hammer toes, Morton’s neuroma and more.
In 2022 the Centre introduced Consultant Plastic Surgeon Professor Benjamin Miranda, another Essex based NHS Surgeon who offers cosmetic surgery as well as specialist hand surgery for trigger finger, ganglions, carpal tunnel syndrome and other hand and skin lesion anomalies.
Long-standing Consultant Plastic Surgeons Ms Kallirroi Tzafetta and Ms Monica Fawzy are world renowned in their fields of face and neck reconstructive surgery. They continue to achieve outstanding results for our cosmetic facial surgery patients.
Long-standing services at FACEMED
24/7 Emergency Dentist in Essex
FACEMED is home to the only 24/7 emergency dentist in Essex. The service level agreement acquired by FACEMED with 247 Dental Limited grants FACEMED with exclusivity on this particular service throughout Essex. Patients are provided with a dedicated number which allows them to book emergency dental appointments 24/7 including weekends and bank holidays.
Skin Cancer Lesion Management
The management of benign and malignant skin cancer lesions at FACEMED is aided by the service level agreements in place with specialist laboratories in Essex such as Chelmsford Histopathology (based at Broomfield NHS) and Pathology First in Basildon. Specialist courier services collect samples and take them to the specialist laboratories for pathological diagnosis which is then relayed to the patient at FACEMED by their Consultant Surgeon.
Dental Department
The dental department at FACEMED currently offers a full spectrum of dental services including maxillofacial oral surgical procedures. Oral cancer screening is an integral part of the patient examination within the dental department and onsite X-Ray and CT imaging is also available. The state-of-the-art onsite Cone Beam CT scanner allows patients to have indepth imaging on the same day as opposed to being referred to a specialist imaging centre. The Centre offers a private health insured essentials package for adults and children via Simply Health Denplan allowing patients to sign up for their continuous dental health checks and hygiene by paying a monthly fee.
Surgery
In addition to NHS and privately funded healthcare, the Centre is registered as a provider of surgery for hand, foot, ankle and skin surgery with major private health insurers such as BUPA and AXA PPP.
The Local Community
Within the last 5 years FACEMED has fast become an integral part of the infrastructure of Crays Hill and the local community in Billericay contributing to local employment, upskilling, training and development of Essex-based clinical staff such as apprentice dental nurses and specialist registrar surgeons in foot and ankle surgery.
