The surgeon who would treat you.
Dr. Melanie Petro
M.D., quadruple board-certified · Facial plastic and cosmetic surgeon
MD, University of Mississippi; otolaryngology residency at UMMC; cosmetic surgery fellowship at the McCollough Plastic Surgery Clinic, where she was later MedSpa medical director.
The homepage opens with a quote.
A patient arriving from a search needs to see who you are, what you do and where, before anything else.
Headings that do not say what you do
After the menu, the homepage opens on a quotation, and its three main headings are “QUALIFICATIONS”, “BOARD CERTIFICATIONS” and “SPECIAL INTEREST”. None says facial plastic surgeon in Vestavia Hills.
One phone number, at the very bottom
The homepage shows the phone number once, in the footer, written as 2058246334 — after the whole of Dr. Petro’s biography. The hours and the address are there too, and nowhere above them.
What a surgeon-injector actually changes.
A doctor every time

Surgery or not
Non-surgical care for those not ready, and maintenance after surgery.
Natural results
Facial rejuvenation that looks natural, and breathing considered after rhinoplasty.
No pressure
You leave the consultation with a plan, pricing and time to think it over.
Board certifications
Injector — Dr. Petro
McCollough Plastic Surgery Clinic
Fellow, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery

Meet Sandy, the front desk that never goes home.
She knows every procedure and treatment, Dr. Petro’s training, the hours and the address. Ask her out loud — she answers in about a second.
- “Who does the Botox?”
- “What is the Petro Petite Lift?”
- “Are you open Friday afternoon?”
- “Is Dr. Petro board-certified?”
- “Book me a consultation next week.”
Demonstration only. Any appointment Sandy takes here is not placed with Petro Facial Plastic Surgery.
The same Sandy can answer the phone.
What you just spoke to is the website half. The identical agent — same treatment knowledge, same booking rules, same voice — can be connected to a phone line to catch the calls nobody gets to.
Unanswered calls. Sandy picks up when the line rings out because the room is busy.
After hours and weekends. She answers questions and takes bookings while the doors are shut.
Overflow. When two calls arrive at once, the second one stops going to voicemail.
Nothing about your existing number changes. You keep it, you keep answering it, and Sandy only takes what you would otherwise have lost. You can listen to every call and read every booking she makes.
- Sandy gets her own numberA dedicated line, never published to your guests.
- You set the forwarding rulesBusy, no answer, or after hours — your choice, with your carrier, reversible in a minute.
- She answers what you missSame knowledge she has here. She can also hand a caller straight to a human.
- Bookings land in your systemConnected to your real diary once you say so — never before.
Turn the demo into a decision.
Everything on this page came from petromd.com — your own training, your own before-and-afters, your building, hours and address. Nothing was invented. A 60-minute Discovery Call with Ignatius covers what it takes to answer every enquiry properly — the evening facelift questions, the who-injects questions, the Friday-afternoon calls — and whether it is worth doing at all.
