"I was born and raised in British Columbia and am proud to contribute to the health and well-being of the citizens of this province. I have been in clinical practice in Vancouver since 1990 and am currently the Head of Plastic Surgery at UBC. Over the years, I have made it a priority to maintain my education and skills at the highest standard and have successfully treated thousands of patients.
"My approach is to treat each patient as an individual – just like a member of my own family – offering the best of plastic surgery technology combined with my own experience as to what really works and what is most appropriate for them. I take the time to make sure patients understand all surgical options, what to expect and how much "down time" they will have. Ultimately this ensures a rewarding experience – and the best possible aesthetic results – for all my patients.
