From Anatomy Lab to Rhinoplasty: A Surgeon’s Journey

You're listening to the Confident Choice Podcast with me, Dr. Roberto Garcia, a double board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon. Honest conversations and expert advice about the decisions that make you feel your best. Dr. Garcia traces his path with guest, Dr. Phillip Garcia, M.D., F.A.C.S., from the anatomy lab to otolaryngology and fellowship-trained facial plastic surgery, explaining why focused practice and fine motor training produce better rhinoplasty and facial results, and how the specialty evolved over time. He reflects on the rigor of residency, the importance of owning mistakes, lessons learned from mentors and his father about humility and hard work, and teases next week’s episode on revision surgery.
