Our Team
Plastic surgery isn’t for the faint of heart. If you’re considering plastic surgery, it’s very important that you choose the most qualified and experienced surgeon. At URMC, the Department Surgery has a team of plastic surgeons specializing in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery.
If you choose to have surgery at URMC, you can be confident that our entire group of surgeons has extensive training (often called fellowship training) in the latest procedures, including endoscopic, laser and reconstructive microsurgery. Our plastic surgeons help you look and feel as natural as possible after your procedure.
