Practice Experience
He has over twenty five years of experience in plastic surgery,

breast reconstruction in York and pioneered many reconstructive
microvascular procedures, he has moved to the forefront in state-of-the-art
aesthetic surgery. His vast experience has led to a professional
dedication to answer the needs of a patient seeking aesthetic
and functional improvement, offering them the most advanced surgical
techniques available for facial and body improvement.
He has been Chief of Plastic Surgery at York
Hospital and is on the staff of 4 other medical facilities.
He is committed at the Center to bring the best and most up-to-date
methods to his patients in all aspects of cosmetic and reconstructive
surgery. His utilization of endoscopic surgery, laser resurfacing
of the skin, and ultrasonic assisted liposuction has enabled him
to provide smaller incisions with less recuperative time than
conventional procedures.
He was the first plastic surgeon in Pennsylvania to use endoscopic
techniques in face lifting procedures, augmentation mammoplasty,
and abdominoplasty. He also had the first skin care center connected
to a plastic surgery practice and was the first to utilize laser
resurfacing in the state.
His goal is to provide the most functional and natural result
possible.
