If you are considering
plastic surgery, one of the most important decisions
you face is the selection of your surgeon. There
are many vital questions that an informed patient
will ask. Is the physician board certified in Plastic
Surgery? Where did the doctor do his plastic surgery
training? How long has the surgeon been in practice?
Do I feel safe and comfortable with the doctor?
Dr. Antell is a board certified
plastic and reconstructive surgeon who has been
in private practice for over 20 years. He is an
official spokesperson for the American Society of
Plastic Surgeons and has membership in many regional
and national medical societies, including the American
Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American
Society of Plastic Surgeons. Dr. Antell is also
a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
He received his general surgery
training at the prestigious Stanford University
Medical Center. Dr. Antell then went on to specialize
in plastic/reconstructive surgery, training at the
New York Hospital/Cornell Medical Center and the
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York
City. Interestingly, he also has a Doctor of Medical
Dentistry (DMD) degree from Case Western Reserve
University. With both these degrees (MD and DMD),
Dr. Antell has the unique expertise to analyze and
reconstruct the face.
Over 10 years ago, Dr. Randolph
H. Guthrie, Jr., M.D. entrusted Dr. Antell with
his practice. As a pioneer in breast reconstruction
during his time as the Chief of Plastic Surgery
at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in
New York City, Dr. Guthrie limited his private practice
exclusively to the breast: including reductions,
augmentations and reconstruction. Prior to his retirement,
Dr. Guthrie had one of the most successful practices
in New York. He attended St. Paul's School in New
Hampshire, and graduated from Andover, followed
by Princeton and then Harvard Medical School. He
mentored and trained Dr. Antell at The New York
Hospital-Cornell Medical Center (now called New
York-Presbyterian, the University Hospital of Columbia
and Cornell). In the words of Dr. Guthrie, in speaking
with Dr. Antell: "A lot of people have offered
me money for my practice, but I think it is unethical
to sell it to the highest bidder. I would like to
give you the practice at no charge as I think you
are the best Doctor."
With thousands of successful
procedures to date, you will be in the most capable
and experienced of hands. Dr. Antell has appeared
on NY Magazine's Best Doctor list for many years
and has been featured in numerous articles and publications.

Plastic surgery, whether face,
breast, or body, encourages and promotes a strong,
positive self-image. No matter how small or large
the change on the outside, these procedures can
create extraordinary changes on the inside, allowing
an individual's self confidence to flourish. Our
entire staff is excited to help you as you make
these important decisions. Please feel free to contact
us with any questions and concerns or to schedule
a consultation.
