"Very little can compare with the sense of gratification a physician feels when he (or she) knows they  have made a positive impact on a patient's life. This knowledge was what led me to medical school following my experiences as an infantry medic. My fascination with the intricacy of facial anatomy and the artistic nature of plastic surgery led me to focus on Head and Neck Surgery and to subspecialize in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. I enjoy the artistic nature of facial plastic surgery, and the challenge of continuously striving for improvement and perfection. Whether turning back the clock for a patient who shows signs of premature aging, or giving a rhinoplasty patient the look they have always dreamed of, I truly enjoy my work."

 

As an accredited outpatient surgery facility, La Jolla Center for Facial Plastic Surgery, Inc., is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of safety and service in outpatient surgery.  Dr. Amir is proud to serve as a certified facility inspector for AAAASF (American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities).
