Medical ear piercing by a family doctor you can trust.
We use the Blomdahl Medical Ear Piercing System, available only to physicians. This provides your child with a safer and more sanitary alternative to the mall or jewelry stores.
Cost $99 includes procedure, earrings, after care supplies
We use disposable cartridges that are replaced with every piercing. Unlike mall jewelry which commonly has the risk of allergic reaction to nickel in it, we use only medical grade plastic to eliminate this risk.
We are trained in sterile technique and wound care management.

Nope. We are offering this as a service to our patients and the community.
