The editor’s perspective
Local detail. Personal decisions.
Mission Santa Clara introduces this California edition. The profile identifies Dr. James Orman’s published Kaiser Permanente department and separates professional background from the practical questions of referral, eligibility and treatment scope. Choosing a surgeon also requires a discussion of training, treatment setting, alternatives and follow-up. National cost benchmarks and the consultation notebook below can help you prepare those questions.

Professional detail.
A personal decision.
MD · Plastic surgery
Kaiser Permanente’s professional profile lists Dr. James Orman’s American Board of Plastic Surgery certification, medical degree from Georgetown University and training at the University of Washington and Lahey Clinic. His published interests include breast, general reconstructive and hand surgery. Professional biography ↗
The listed Santa Clara department is part of Kaiser Permanente. Confirm membership or referral requirements and the services available for your concern; this profile does not establish access to elective cosmetic treatment. Practice information ↗
Appointment detail: The official profile lists Plastic Surgery on the second floor, Department 290, at 710 Lawrence Expressway. The department number is (408) 851-2000; surgery scheduling is listed separately as (408) 851-2400. Published contact information ↗
Ask who will perform each part of treatment, which facility will be used and how follow-up will work. Your consultation should establish whether a proposed treatment fits your health, goals and circumstances.
An editorial profile, not a ranking, clinical assessment or claim of celebrity patients. The surgeon is not presented as the author or medical reviewer of this edition.

02 / Before you book
Start with the essentials.
Four checks to make before choosing a date or paying a deposit.
Understand the proposal.
Ask about expected changes, limitations, alternatives and the important risks for you. Bring your medical history and a list of medicines and supplements; discuss them with the treating team.
ASPS patient safety ↗Confirm the setting.
Ask where the procedure will take place, who provides anesthesia and how the team responds to complications. The consulting address may differ from the surgical facility.
Verify ABPS certification ↗Plan the follow-up.
Request written recovery instructions, scheduled follow-up and an urgent contact. If you are traveling to Santa Clara, ask how long to stay locally and when travel is appropriate.
Preparation & safety resources ↗The consultation mindset
A good plan begins with your priorities.
Describe the concern in your own words. Ask what the proposed approach would change, what it would leave unchanged and whether postponing treatment or doing nothing is a reasonable option. Use reference photographs to explain a preference, without treating another person’s result as a promise. Prepare your consultation →
03 / Procedure conversations

04 / Understanding costs
Build a clear budget.
Separate national cosmetic context. These ASPS benchmarks are not this practice’s quotes or a list of services offered by the featured clinician.
National surgeon-fee benchmarks — not Santa Clara prices. ASPS publishes the figures below on its procedure-cost pages. They exclude anesthesia, operating-room facilities and related expenses. They are not Dr. Orman’s prices or complete procedure totals. These source pages were checked October 4, 2026; they do not identify a statistical year for the displayed figures.
| Procedure | Published average | Source and scope |
|---|---|---|
| Breast augmentation with implants | $4,875 | Implant-based augmentation · ASPS ↗ |
| Breast lift | $6,816 | Mastopexy · ASPS ↗ |
| Abdominoplasty | $8,174 | Tummy tuck · ASPS ↗ |
| Liposuction | $4,711 | Liposuction · ASPS ↗ |
| Upper eyelid surgery | $3,359 | Upper blepharoplasty · ASPS ↗ |
| Facelift | $11,395 | Facelift · ASPS ↗ |
These published averages do not establish the price of a particular surgeon, location or individual case. Fees may change. Ask the practice for surgeon, facility, anesthesia, implant or device, aftercare and revision terms in writing. The table’s source year is separate from the 2025 procedure-count charts below.
A quote has more than one line.
Start with your personal written estimate, then check what is included before adding amounts to the worksheet. Do not count an anesthesia or facility charge twice if it is already included in a package. Ask whether consultation, prescriptions, garments and follow-up are extra. Read the CPS U.S. cost guide →
Ask Kaiser Permanente Santa Clara Homestead Medical Center whether there is a consultation fee, how any deposit is applied and which charges are included in your written estimate. No clinic-specific treatment price is asserted here.
05 / The consultation notebook
Arrive with better questions.
Two simple planning tools for your Santa Clara, CA consultation. Use them to organize a discussion and a written quote with your treating team.
Prepare your conversation
Consultation checklist
Tick a topic once you have a clear answer. Bring any unanswered questions to your clinician.
A discussion aid, not a medical assessment. No answers or personal health details are collected.
Read the whole quote
Your USD budget worksheet
Enter amounts from your own quote or estimates. Every field starts empty; this worksheet does not suggest prices.
Keep the quote in context
Confirm whether each amount includes taxes. This tool does not add taxes, estimate rebates or fill in missing costs. Enter a fee once; if a package already includes a category, avoid counting it twice.
Blank fields are unknown, not free. An entered subtotal is not a complete treatment quote. Ask what follow-up, revisions or unexpected care may cost.
Use non-negative amounts up to USD 1,000,000 per field, with no more than two decimal places. Figures and ticks remain only in this open page; nothing is sent or saved by these tools.
06 / The national perspective

07 / City planning
Make room for recovery.
Practical questions for Santa Clara residents and people traveling to the city.
Before your appointment
Choose the right address.
Use the published Santa Clara address shown in the clinic section. Confirm the consultation location, operating facility and follow-up arrangements before setting a date.
Around your treatment
Plan practical support.
Discuss transportation, accompaniment and help with everyday tasks before choosing a date. Ask your clinician about time away from work, local follow-up and travel arrangements appropriate to your procedure and health.
After your visit
Know who to call.
Keep the treating team’s written instructions and urgent contact details. Confirm how concerns are handled after hours. The magazine’s enquiry channel is for editorial matters and cannot provide clinical follow-up.
08 / Frequently asked
The useful
answers.
A few details to clarify before contacting a clinic.
What credentials are listed for Dr. James Orman?
The linked professional sources list American Board of Plastic Surgery certification. Verify current certification with ABPS and current California licensure through the state licensing authority. This editorial profile is not a live registration certificate.
Where is the featured practice for Santa Clara readers?
Kaiser Permanente Santa Clara Homestead Medical Center is listed at 710 Lawrence Expressway, 2nd Floor, Department 290, Santa Clara, CA 95051. Call +1 (408) 851-2000 to confirm the named surgeon and appointment location.
Are these complete surgical prices?
No. The table contains ASPS national cosmetic surgeon-fee benchmarks. They exclude anesthesia, operating facilities and related expenses, and are not this practice’s quotes. The worksheet only adds your own entries.
Can I read the clinic’s Google reviews?
Open Google reviews leads to Google Maps. The live control can request a current clinic-wide average and count when the site’s Google configuration permits it. User reviews do not verify credentials or predict results.
Do the charts describe Santa Clara procedure numbers?
No. They show national ASPS estimates with the year and scope stated, not local counts, unique patients or this surgeon’s activity.
Does CPS book medical appointments?
Contact the practice directly for clinical appointments. The CPS enquiry form prepares a WhatsApp or email draft for magazine enquiries and corrections. The visitor reviews and sends it in their chosen app.
