ABOUT RIVERSIDE SURGICAL ARTS
Life is meant to be lived confidently.
At Riverside Surgical Arts, we believe facial care should begin with listening, not a treatment menu. Your face is uniquely yours, and every recommendation should consider your anatomy, your goals and what will help you feel most like yourself.
As the Fredericksburg area’s first facial plastic surgery and medspa practice devoted exclusively to facial rejuvenation, we bring surgical and non-surgical care together under one roof. Led by a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, our comprehensive approach allows us to recommend what is right for you, whether that means surgery, a less invasive treatment or simply knowing when less is more.
Inspired by the warmth of hospitality and the charm of Fredericksburg, we’ve created an experience where you’ll feel welcomed, heard and genuinely cared for. Because confidence isn’t about looking like someone else. It’s about feeling like the very best version of yourself.
That’s our purpose. Welcome to Riverside Surgical Arts.

“Our goal is to help people feel confident by finding the right approach and creating results that feel natural and true to them.”

My entire experience with Dr. Bartels was excellent from start to finish. I had no complications, and the recovery was much easier than I ever anticipated. Dr. Bartels is incredibly skilled, professional, and attentive, with an excellent bedside manner. I would highly recommend Dr. Bartels to anyone considering a deep plane facelift.
