He took his time and didn't rush me at all. Listened to me very well about the history of my illness. Then he explained his thoughts and diagnosis.

More about Dr. Afshin Parhiscar, MD, MD
My name is Afshin Parhiscar, a Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon, who has dedicated many years of my life to mastering the art of Plastic Surgery. It is a privilege & a pleasure to be able to share the experience of transforming a physical aspect of your body to help improve your quality of life. I strive to hear your concerns, assess your goals & aim to provide a safe & optimal surgical outcome together.
Once I began medical school, I soon learned that practicing medicine was something I loved just as much as the science of medicine. Taking care of patients & sharing in their experiences has allowed me to live a fuller & more meaningful life & further keeps me committed to providing the best possible care. By the time I completed medical school, I decided I wanted to become a Head & Neck Surgeon, since the head & neck had always been the most interesting, & incredibly complex anatomy & pathology for me.
My residency training opened an entire new aspect of medicine to me. I always enjoyed working with my hands, unraveling structures, understanding their mysteries & putting them back together. The fundamental skill set I acquired as a surgical resident allowed me to appreciate the structure & function of the human body. I learned that I strive & grow when I’m allowed to create & imagine, so I decided to expand my horizons by further studying the discipline of Plastic Surgery. I quickly fell deeper in love with a profession in which I use my knowledge of science, my compassion for people, my technical skills & the creative freedom to imagine & form the optimal surgical outcome for a physical attribute.
I look forward to getting to know you!
