Dr. Buchanan is a super star doctor! In Oct 2018 I was diagnosed with breast cancer which required a double mastectomy and breast reconstruction. I have been beyond fortunate to have Dr. Buchanan as my surgeon for the breast reconstruction portion of my treatment. Not only is Dr. Buchanan a highly skilled surgeon, he is also a perfectionist, he is caring, compassionate, warm, innovative and has an incredible sense of humor. Dr. Buchanan is so knowledgeable and it is obvious he stays current on all the latest technologies and innovations. I could not be more pleased with my results! He is, pure and simple, the absolute best! Dr. Buchanan is a life changer - he has certainly changed my life in the most positive, wonderful way. His staff, Michelle and Shannon are wonderful as well!

Do your homework…. As someone familiar with the medical profession, before selecting a surgeon, I did research, including consulting with prospective surgeons. It was vital to have a high confidence level in my selection. My paramount criteria were: education, certification, experience, reputation and, yes, even personality. Though many specialties can perform cosmetic surgery*, being a board certified Plastic Surgeon was paramount since that achievement requires additional years of specialty training via a fellowship. I also wanted a cosmetic surgeon who was somewhat younger because he/she, in my personal and unscientific opinion, seems more motivated to be up-to-date on the latest surgical techniques. Additionally, although personality doesn't affect competence, it should be considered because, during what can be a stressful experience, a caring bedside manner is very comforting before and after surgery! I had facial surgery so, because cosmetic surgery is about improving one's appearance, having a "critical eye" to create what is best for that individual patient is a valuable talent – I didn't want a "one-size-fits-all" procedure. This artistic approach was my final piece of the puzzle to select Dr. Dallas Buchanan. I'm happy I did! * Many physicians are board certified in other medical specialties and often perform practice cosmetic surgery by completing cosmetic procedure continuing education classes – this wasn't sufficient to me. Though I'm sure they are competent, I didn't want to take any chance.
