Dr. Ruth J. Barta

I treat all aspects of plastic surgery, but have a special interest in pediatric plastic surgery. It is especially gratifying to improve a child's life. I am excited to be able to provide the latest techniques in cleft lip and palate care, congenital malformations and craniofacial reconstruction. I strive to provide my patients with the quality of care that I would give my own family members. I believe that good communication and understanding at every interaction along the way is as important to the final outcome as the surgery itself. Aside from patient care, I am an adjunct assistant professor at the University of Minnesota. I enjoy teaching and working with residents and students. I volunteer my time to surgical missions in third world countries for cleft lip and palate repair, burn reconstruction, hand deformities and other reconstructive procedures. In my spare time, I enjoy running, adventure racing and traveling.
