Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
The Section of Plastic Surgery strives to be a premier plastic surgical service at
the regional, national and international levels, with excellence in education, patient
care and research. Our core missions are providing the best possible clinical care
in all aspects of plastic surgery and engaging in and producing high impact clinical
and basic science research to advance plastic surgery.
The Plastic Surgery Department at the Medical College of Georgia offers a broad and
advanced range of reconstructive and aesthetic services, grounded in academic excellence
and patient-centered care. The department specializes in the treatment of complex
wounds, abdominal wall reconstruction for hernias, and both oncologic and trauma-related
reconstruction, including comprehensive care for breast cancer patients. Expertise
also extends to surgical dermatology managing skin cancers and complex lesions with
precision and aesthetic consideration. Pediatric plastic surgery services address
both congenital and acquired conditions in children. We offer consultation and surgical
care for hand and craniofacial patients. In addition to its reconstructive capabilities,
the department provides a full spectrum of cosmetic procedures, blending artistry
with surgical skill to enhance natural form and function. Through innovation, research,
and multidisciplinary collaboration, the department is committed to improving outcomes
and restoring confidence for every patient.
