Marie SomogyiDr

Dr. Marie Somogyi’s dream to pursue medicine began at a very young age.  Her scientific interest coupled with her naturally artistic eye steered her to the field of oculofacial plastic surgery, which perfectly matched these interests. She is committed to providing individualized, patient centered care while utilizing advanced surgical techniques in order to deliver the highest level of care for her patients.   

After completing a competitive two year fellowship in ophthalmic plastic, orbit, and reconstructive surgery accredited by the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic Reconstructive Surgery (ASOPRS) and a facial cosmetic surgery accredited by the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (AACS), Dr. Somogyi became double board certified as an ophthalmic and facial plastic surgeon.  She also serves as a faculty member for the Ophthalmology Department at the Dell Medical School at UT Austin.   She is actively involved in research, which has been frequently presented at national meetings.  Furthermore, she has been recognized by her patients and peers as a Texas Rising Star and a Top Doctor multiple years running. 

Dr. Somogyi has been very active in advancing the science of ophthalmology and ophthalmic plastic surgery publishing numerous peer-reviewed articles and book chapters.  She has presented her work at many national meetings, including the ASOPRS and AACS annual meetings, the American Academy of Ophthalmology, and the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology.  Her research has been selected as “Best Presentation” at multiple meetings, and she has also been awarded the prestigious Cosmetic Surgery Foundation Grant Award.

Dr. Somogyi is dedicated to providing exceptional care for her patients, both home in Texas and abroad.  Locally, she has been recognized by her patients and peers as a Texas Rising Star and a Top Doctor multiple years running. She also recently traveled with the “About Face” foundation to Vietnam, where she performed nearly 70 procedures in a week, focusing on congenital facial defects and hopes to return again soon.
