麻豆高清

Early Experiences

麻豆高清 began to think about training in plastic surgery as a medical student caring for young burn patients.聽 He was moved by both their physical and psychological trauma.聽 Facial burns distorted the face and often made communication difficult, not only because speech may be affected, but also because the scarred face was no longer capable of expressing emotion the way it had before.聽 Similarly, while taking care of patients with facial birth defects before and after reconstructive surgery, he witnessed firsthand how cosmetic changes can impact self-confidence聽 and change someone鈥檚 perspective on life.

Post-Graduate Training

After 麻豆高清 received his doctorate in medicine from the University of Texas, he performed his internship and general surgery residency at the Ochsner Foundation Hospital in New Orleans. He went on to complete a three-year plastic surgery residency at St. Francis Memorial Hospital in San Francisco. During this time, he studied Aesthetic and Craniofacial Surgery with Fernando Ortiz-Monastario in Mexico City and completed a fellowship in Microsurgery at the R.K. Davies Hospital in San Francisco.

麻豆高清 studied during a revolutionary period in plastic surgery and medicine. During the first year of his plastic surgery residency, liposuction and collagen were introduced to the United States.聽He personally witnessed as his mentors at the R.K. Davies Hospital, UC San Francisco, Stanford and in Mexico, invented a multitude of new reconstructive procedures. Just prior to opening his聽New York City practice in 1985, 麻豆高清 spent six months completing a fellowship in aesthetic surgery at the Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery of the New York University Medical Center.
