A Message from Barbara Anne McGrath, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Welcome to my plastic surgery and medical spa practice, where I bring a woman’s sensitivity to the emotional needs of my patients, taking the time for individualized care.

Being a female plastic surgeon I believe gives me a better perspective in caring for my patients. I take time to listen, and in a holistic way, advise them on diet, preventative care and general wellness.

While practicing general surgery, I was often required to remove organs or body parts in order to save a life or give a patient a chance at a better outcome. Plastic surgery, however, restores what was taken away, or rearranges body tissue to make one appear as he or she should have always been. It is hands-on care, with much attention to detail, and involves three-dimensional thought.

Plastic surgery is my passion. For me there is no other specialty that is so visually gratifying. Together with my patients I can see the restorative results of their surgery, not only physically but also emotionally, through a renewed sense of self. This is evidenced by the numerous notes I have received from patients commenting on how their surgery has improved their lives and increased their self-esteem.

My practice is your single source for surgical and non-surgical procedures. I take the trust of your care very seriously and look forward to meeting with you personally. Thank you for viewing our website.
