Profile

Triple board-certified Dr. Salas is a rare combination. He is an academically brilliant student of surgery, involved in pioneering research and publications. Just as importantly, he has a warm bedside manner and finesse, that cannot be taught.

 

     Peter Salas, received his MD from New York Medical College and completed his plastic surgery training under the guidance of Dr. Ian Jackson, one of the fathers of plastic surgery. He was then chief resident on a general surgery fellowship on the Sinai Grace program, Detroit, MI; completed a hand surgery fellowship at the University of Washington, Seattle; a plastic and reconstructive surgery residency at the Providence Hospital Medical Center, Southfield, MI (where he was again chief resident); a microvascular surgery fellowship at the University of Washington, Seattle; and an aesthetic surgery fellowship at St. Barnabas Hospital Medical Center in Livingston, NJ.  Aside from his training in cosmetic plastic surgery, he is also trained in general surgery, surgical oncology, microvascular surgery, and hand surgery. This unique background has provided him with the breadth of knowledge and experience to treat even the most complex conditions.

     Dr. Salas was named one of America’s top plastic surgeons by the Consumers Research Council of America and was listed in Vogue Magazine as one of the “Top Choices in the Tri-States”. He has earned the rare distinction of triple board certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, the American Board of Surgery, and the American Board of Mesoplasty.​

I’ve had multiple cosmetic procedures and a few plastic surgeries performed by Dr. Salas. I’m so so happy with the results, and I greatly appreciate everything he had done for me! The only thing I regret I haven’t done it sooner. Dr. Salas is such a talented and humble doctor who made me feel comfortable and confident with every procedure and every surgery. Dr. Salas answered all my questions and concerns with all the details. Thank you so much Dr Salas! You’re the best!!

My son needed stitches above his upper lip from a dog bite and Dr. Salas did an excellent job. You can't even see any scars. He was very nice and professional. I would recommend him! I'm so grateful to him for doing such a great job on my son. i was so worried he'd have a scar. Thank you Dr. Salas!

If you are in the emergency room and Dr Salas walks in DO NOT LET HIM DO ANY WORK FOR YOU!!! My son was in the ER for a cut on his head and Dr Salas came to do the stitches. I never imagined it would cost over 5k for a few stitches. Dealing with the office afterwards staff has been absolutely horrible!! Every time you call to talk to them they are extremely rude and make it seem like you are bothering them by calling. Made several requested to get a call back from someone else, but they never call. His office staff make me regret ever having Dr Salas work on my son. And he still has a nice big scar.

I felt compelled to write a review given the extraordinary treatment I received over the last few months from Dr. Salas. I wanted a cosmetic rhinoplasty for as long as I could remember, and also suffered from nasal issues (nasal obstruction) that required attention. Despite a busy schedule, Dr. Salas (and his staff) immediately got me into their office and addressed all of my concerns — providing me with a sense of comfort and ease pre&post surgery. My experience with Dr. Salas (and his staff) exceeded all expectations; I’m thrilled that I can finally breathe properly, and am beyond pleased with the cosmetic outcome! Dr. Salas is not only a gifted surgeon, he is a caring and attentive professional.

Dr. Salas has treated me a few times over the past 10 years, and you cannot ask for a better surgeon. Had an emergency surgery, and he was very quick to come immediately and treat me. He is kind and attentive. His office staff is also very helpful and efficient.
