I am a plastic and reconstructive surgeon with a specialty focus in microsurgery, which most often involves transfer of tissue from one part of the body to another to restore or replace tissues that has been affected by cancer or trauma. However, I have a broad range of interests, and I feel that my responsibility as a reconstructive surgeon is to be familiar and comfortable with reconstructive procedures throughout the entire body. By fulfilling this responsibility, my hope is to provide operative treatments that restore form, function, and wholeness to patients whose illnesses or injuries have taken something away from them. The conditions that I treat most commonly are cancers of the breast, head and neck, and the bones and soft tissues of the extremities. I also provide surgical solutions for lymphedema, including lymphaticovenous anastomosis and lymph node transfers. Other areas of clinical expertise include cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the breast and trunk, including gender-affirming surgeries and body contouring. Within cancer care, I believe my most important job is to enable colleagues in other cancer disciplines to do their lifesaving work without fear that their operations and treatments will permanently disable, disfigure, or otherwise harm their patients.
