“I  always liked the sciences therefore entering medical school was a natural progression.
After my third year of medical school, having done my first surgical rotation I knew that I was going to be a surgeon.

The decision for plastic surgery came shortly thereafter as I learned about the diversity and finesse of the specialty,”
