PERFECTIONIST
It’s not a great surprise that Dr. Markmann ended up in the medical field considering the fact that six of the seven children in his family have followed a medical career path. The artistic nature of plastic surgery is what drove him to his chosen specialty. “Plastic surgery is creative and requires artistic talents in addition to scientific knowledge and familiarity with the anatomy of the body,” says Dr. Markmann. “Plastic surgery entails making people look better on the outside, which can in turn make them feel better on the inside. Facilitating such a positive boost in one’s appearance and self-esteem is the most rewarding part of what I do.” Dr. Markmann, who is ever intent on ensuring his patients receive star-quality treatment, pays close attention to each aspect of care provided.
