Part of the oath all doctors take is a promise to teach and further the profession. My research and training under exceptional surgeons from across the US has given me a unique skill set and knowledge base that I have been able to share by writing book chapters, publishing peer-reviewed research papers, and lecturing.
I have written chapters in Secondary Rhinoplasty by the Global Masters and Operative Techniques in Plastic Surgery
I have lectured at national and international plastic surgery conferences on microsurgery, breast reconstruction, craniosynostosis, pediatric plastic surgery, and skull reconstruction. These lectures have sent me as far as Mexico and Tokyo. My research presentations have earned me honors at the national society level.
I have published peer reviewed journal articles in prestigious journals such as the Journal of Pediatrics, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, and the Journal of Surgical Research.
Below is a list of lectures, presentations, chapters, and abstracts:
