Profile of Chet Nastala, Dr
Dr. Nastala attended Harvard University graduating Magna Cum Laude in biochemical sciences. He was Varsity Golf team captain and enjoyed travel and competition but developed his passion for medicine and surgery through his work in the cardiovascular laboratories at Thomas Jefferson in the summers. Attending Duke University Medical School allowed him the unique opportunity to pursue surgical research and present his work internationally and meet mentors in Plastic Surgery inspiring him to use his talents for the reconstruction of cancer patients.
During the last two decades at PRMA, Dr. Nastala has focused his efforts on developing one of the best breast reconstruction practices in the country. As patients have come from all over Texas and beyond, he has focused on delivering the best surgical care possible. He also served as the Secretary, Vice President, then President of the San Antonio International Society of Plastic Surgeons. Along with Dr. Ochoa, he has been instrumental in the research efforts of the practice as listed on his CV developing important protocols for nerve regeneration (TruSense technique), and improving clinical outcomes with ERAS – Enhanced Recovery After Surgery –, all important topics to improve our patients’ care and minimize complications and post-operative discomfort.
