What do you like about this subject?

Facial Anatomy and human Facial expressions fascinate me. I have always been a visual and "hands on" person and consider myself very lucky to spend my days working with my Patients where I get to incorporate science, art and surgery in my work.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

One the most exciting aspects of practicing Facial Plastic Surgery is that the specialty is constantly growing and developing. I really enjoy talking with Patients and answering their questions since it is a benefical and edcuational process for both of us. Setting and achieving new goals helps fuel my passion for Facial Plastic Surgery.
