Office

Our office is an independent, comprehensive state-of-the-art surgical facility with the latest technology for cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, which includes two state-certified operating suites in addition to medical exam rooms and recovery areas. Most surgical procedures are performed in our facilities with the assistance of an anesthetist and a well-trained surgical team. Our goal is to offer you a convenient, private and comfortable setting for the procedure(s) you need. Drs. Musarra, Leake and Petrosky have staff priviliges at nearby Wellstar Kennestone Hospital and Marietta Surgical Center for more extensive cosmetic or reconstructive surgeries.

Meet the Surgeons

Each surgeon at Plastic Surgery Center of the South is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. This is the only board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in head-to-toe plastic surgery. In addition to their board certifications, Dr. Musarra, Dr. Leake, and Dr. Petrosky continue to advance their education and give back to the community through charitable work and participation in a number of medical societies.

Testimonials


Testi "I just wanted to take a moment to let you and your staff know how wonderful my plastic surgery experience has been with your office! I previously worked in the medical field for 16 years and had always heard from physicians and previous patients how wonderful you were as a surgeon and have been privy to see your work. I knew when the time came for me that you would be the one I choose to do my surgery. I did of course consult with several surgeons but ultimately choose you. From the moment I contacted your office your staff was nothing but pleasant and professional. Previously working in the field, patient customer service is a huge issue for me! Of course the true test was when I did come for my consultation. You and your staff continued to live up to my expectations in person. I have since had my surgery and have worked and spoken with several members of your staff during the last months and in recent weeks. Each one of you has always been professional, compassionate, polite and patient with me and my questions. I extend these compliments to the surgery center staff as well."


Testi "I just wanted to thank all of you at the center - from the wonderful people in the front office to Dr. Leake and his surgical staff. You were all so kind and made me feel safe and secure when I was there to have my "Tummy Tuck". Thank you all again, so much!"
