According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, there has been a rise in cardiologists, oncologists, and emergency room physicians performing plastic surgery procedures without the proper board certification. This discrepancy, in the training and certification of these doctors and the plastic surgeries they have performed, has led to many uniformed individuals receiving inadequate or poorly managed care. To ensure you are getting the best care from a top rated plastic surgeon it is imperative that you look for a plastic surgeon that is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery as well as the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
Dr. Patrick Sullivan is certified by both the American Board of Plastic Surgery, in plastic and reconstructive surgery, as well as the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. In addition, Dr. Sullivan has also received certification from the American Board of Otolaryngology (surgery of the head and neck). Patient safety is a cornerstone of Dr. Sullivan’s practice and he is frequently called upon by the media to speak about the importance of certification and safety.
