Our Surgeons
At the Centre, our surgeons are highly skilled and qualified Plastic Surgeons. They are:
- members of the Plastic and Reconstructive division of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS)
- members of the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
- members of the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS)
- affiliated with major teaching hospitals
- formally trained in specialised cosmetic and plastic surgery techniques.
Beware! - In Australia, any doctor can practice cosmetic surgery, regardless of whether or not they have had any appropriate or advanced surgical training
Select your surgeon carefully.
- The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons strictly recommend that all surgery be performed only by appropriately qualified specialist surgeons
- Ensure your surgeon is a member by looking for the FRACS qualification after their name - this indicates that the doctor has undertaken the years of formal education, specialized training and surgical residencies to become a surgeon
Dr Gerard Sormann says:
Choose a surgeon you feel comfortable with. Someone who's easy to talk to, friendly, professional. Someone who listens closely to what you want and cares about what you need.
