Profile of Benjamin Schlechter, Dr

Dr. Schlechter has helped thousands of patients enhance their appearance and improve their self-confidence during his 28+ years of surgical experience. Dr. Schlechter is a leader among Pennsylvania plastic surgeons, and his Lancaster and Allentown area cosmetic surgery patients will tell you that Dr. Schlechter is very calming and reassuring, and treats each one of his patients as he would like to be treated – like a dear friend. It is not uncommon for Dr. Schlechter to continue to provide follow-up care for up to a year after a patient’s procedure. This dedication to his patients’ well-being, as well as the exceptional results he creates, are among the reasons he receives so many patient and physician referrals.

Dr. Schlechter was inspired to pursue a career in plastic surgery for Reading and Lancaster, PA residents by area plastic surgeon Dr. Sergio Proserpi, the original founder of the practice. Even as a child, Dr. Schlechter knew that plastic surgery was his calling, and he has dedicated his life to excellence in this field. He graduated from the prestigious University of Health Sciences/The Chicago Medical School in Chicago, Illinois. He completed a highly sought-after residency in General Surgery at Case Western Reserve University and Mount Sinai Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio. He then returned to Chicago to complete his training in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the University of Illinois-Chicago and Cook County Hospital. He was chief resident in both his general surgery and plastic surgery residencies. His five years of general surgery training go above and beyond what is required for a plastic surgeon and demonstrate his commitment to exemplary care.
