- 00:00I pride myself in being
- 00:01a general plastic and reconstructive
- 00:03surgeon. About fifty percent of
- 00:04my clinical practice is breast
- 00:06reconstruction.
- 00:07The other half of my
- 00:08practice is body contouring. So
- 00:10that includes breast reduction surgery.
- 00:11That includes
- 00:13post bariatric body contouring surgery.
- 00:15So patients who've had massive
- 00:16weight loss and they have
- 00:17excess skin,
- 00:19and irritation and challenges with
- 00:21that. I genuinely believe that
- 00:22I've got the best job
- 00:23in the world. Restoring form
- 00:24and function is,
- 00:26a a privilege.
- 00:27So as a reconstructive surgeon,
- 00:29obviously, we are bringing things
- 00:30back that they had previously
- 00:32either lost through trauma or
- 00:34cancer or we are making
- 00:37things better. We are enhancing
- 00:39a challenge that they've either
- 00:40dealt with for many years
- 00:42or even a week. I
- 00:43get to move the field
- 00:44forward with my pen as
- 00:46it pertains to my research
- 00:47endeavors. I get to move
- 00:48the field forward as far
- 00:49as how I go about
- 00:50educating the next generation of
- 00:51physicians and I think I
- 00:53get to carry out the
- 00:54most paramount
- 00:55and pinnacle of care.
