  • 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
