When choosing a surgeon, keep in mind that there is little uniform regulation governing the practice of physicians, especially elective cosmetic surgery. The University of Virginia adheres to the strictest standards of excellence and board certification for all its physicians and the procedures they perform. UVa's cosmetic surgeons are all trained, certified, and highly qualified to perform these procedures. Facial Plastic Surgeons in the field of Otolaryngology- Head & Neck Surgery are specifically trained to perform facial cosmetic surgery, practicing exclusively on the face and neck; they do not perform surgery on the lower body such as breasts, abdomen or other areas.

Dr. Park sees consultations at the Fontaine Research Park and operates at the Virginia Ambulatory Surgery Center (VASC), providing confidential and convenient services but fully backed by the resources and staff of the University of Virginia Medical Center.
