I am committed to delivering compassionate, personalized, and
culturally competent care to every patient in my practice.
I value the doctor-patient relationship and enjoy working with other specialists to deliver coordinated high-quality patient-centered care. As a female plastic surgeon, I am particularly sensitive to the needs of women who want to look and feel their best, and I take pride in my integrity, honesty, and natural looking surgical results. In my practice I also utilize a variety of virtual technology platforms to increase access to necessary reconstructive surgery in underserved populations and improve patient experience.
