HOW HAVE YOU HELPED MAKE RELIABLE INFORMATION MORE AVAILABLE?
I co-authored A Woman’s Guide to Cosmetic Breast Surgery and Body Contouring to demystify information relating to plastic surgery.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF YOUR JOB?
I love getting notes and vacation photos, sometimes years after surgery, from grateful patients.
HOW DO YOU START EACH DAY?
With a workout. Triathlon training was getting monotonous, so I started CrossFit® Bootcamp. I love the variety and intensity—rope climbing, tractor tire flipping—it makes me feel like I’m in Navy SEAL training. It’s hard, but fun.
