Welcome to the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Denver Health. We provide comprehensive surgical care for patients with complex medical conditions, traumatic injuries, cancer-related defects, chronic wounds, congenital differences, and other conditions requiring reconstructive expertise. Our focus is restoring form, function, and quality of life through evidence-based surgical care.
Our surgeons are highly trained in advanced reconstructive techniques and care for patients of all ages. We treat conditions resulting from trauma, cancer, infection, chronic wounds, congenital differences, and significant weight loss. Our services include breast reconstruction, hand and upper extremity surgery, soft tissue and mass excision, scar revision, microsurgery, limb salvage, body contouring following massive weight loss, and gender-affirming surgical care. Each treatment plan is thoughtfully developed to address both functional needs and overall well-being.
We collaborate closely with specialists across the hospital—including Breast Surgery, Trauma, Oncology, Orthopedics, Vascular Surgery, Urology, ENT, and Wound Care—to provide coordinated, multidisciplinary treatment tailored to each patient’s medical needs.
As part of an academic medical center, we are deeply committed to education and research. We train the next generation of surgeons and continuously advance the field through clinical innovation and outcomes-driven research, all in service of providing exceptional, patient-centered care.

In-Office Procedures
Some procedures can be safely performed in our minor procedure room and typically involve minimal recovery time. However, not all conditions are appropriate for in-office treatment. The decision to perform a procedure in clinic versus the operating room depends on factors such as size, location, medical complexity, and patient safety. A consultation with one of our surgeons is required to determine the most appropriate setting for your care. Procedures commonly performed in our minor procedure room include:
- Excision of benign and selected malignant skin lesions
- Excision of soft tissue masses (such as lipomas and fibromas)
- Scar revision
- Dog Ear Revision
- Earlobe Tear repair
- Keloid Removals
