About Me

I am a fellowship-trained facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon. I perform surgery to repair the face after injuries, skin cancer (Mohs surgery) and facial paralysis. I also treat facial nerve disorders and offer cosmetic facial surgery as well as nonsurgical treatments, such as Botox and filler injections.

Facial plastic surgery provides an incredible opportunity to improve patients’ quality of life and self-esteem, whether I’m repairing a disfiguring injury or addressing concerns that cause self-consciousness. I stress honest communication with my patients to set clear expectations. In my free time, I enjoy travel, gardening and ceramics.
