History

Established in 1997.

My first rotation in the third year of medical school was surgery and I fell in love. Now I was seeing the path more clearly. I was marrying surgery to art and architecture. The former is the ability to intervene thoughtfully and meticulously seeing immediate results. The latter is working closely with Mother Nature’s principles to create shapes and images that please the eye and reach emotionally deep within us.

Once in private practice I enjoyed the process of diagnosing the issue at hand. More and more I realized aesthetics could not be taught, one had it or they didn’t. I felt blessed, without aesthetics, things would be pretty formulaic. In addition, my sensitivity and personal journey worked well with those who were searching for direction and answers.

Once the correct diagnosis is established, a treatment plan can be creatively formulated, anatomically in harmony with Mother Nature. Then, and only then, the unique surgical plan can be meticulously carried out.
