Philosophy

Considered a leader in his field, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Sam P. Most has been recognized with national awards and titles, including a turn as vice president of the American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, and serving as the current president-elect of The Rhinoplasty Society. As the chief of the division of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery at Stanford, he provides personalized care in its state-of-the-art clinic. “Our customized, individualized approach helps determine what’s really best for the patient—sometimes it’s surgery and sometimes it’s not,” he explains. For Dr. Most and his team,patient satisfaction and following the highest ethical standards are paramount. “I spend a lot of time talking to them to understand their expectations. I also help them understand anatomy, and what the limitations are in terms of what we can and cannot do.”
