I am a plastic surgeon in Little Rock, AR. I used to "suture for a living", I continue "to live to sew". These days most of my sewing is piecing quilts. I love the patterns and interplay of the fabric color. I would like to explore writing about medical/surgical topics as well as sewing/quilting topics. I will do my best to make sure both are represented accurately as I share with both colleagues and the general public.

I do some cosmetic dermatology and-wow-this graphic summary is sobering. You've done a service to put this out where the public can find it. People need to check in with themselves if they are considering a cosmetic procedure, and we physicians need to check in with them as well for all the reasons depicted in the graphic.
