Dr. Sofer graduated with honors from Columbia University. He then received his medical training at Albany Medical College, completing residencies in general surgery at New York Medical College in Westchester, NY, and in trauma surgery at St. Vincent Medical Center in Bridgeport, CT.  He went on to complete two highly competitive fellowships: the first in plastic and reconstructive surgery at the Medical University of South Carolina, in Charleston, SC; the second in hand and microvascular surgery at the prestigious Kleinert Institute for Hand and Microvascular Surgery in Louisville, KY, where the first successful hand transplant in the world was achieved. It was during this time, while performing innovative and life-altering surgery—including replantation and reattachment of fingers and hands—that Dr. Sofer perfected his surgical craft and honed his ability to perform each procedure with utmost precision and attention to detail.
