Dr. Gary S. Churchill, Specialized in Facial Plastic Surgery

The demand for facial plastic surgery has increased dramatically over the last ten years and as a result, more and more practitioners are trying to "get in the game" and capitalize on that demand. This can leave the consumer confused as to who is best qualified. It just makes sense to only trust your face to a Facial Plastic Surgeon. While most plastic surgeons are generalists performing surgery on the whole body, spending much of their operating time on body liposuction, tummy tucks, and breast surgery, Facial Plastic Surgeons are true specialists devoting their entire practice exclusively to the face. It is just common sense that a board certified surgeon who specializes exclusively in plastic surgery of the face is who you'd want to see.

The surgical practice of Gary S. Churchill, M.D. FACS, has been devoted exclusively to the face since he established the Center for Facial Plastic Surgery in 1989. Along with Stacie McClane, M.D., they perform more than 1,000 such surgeries per year. This degree of experience and expertise is to our knowledge, unsurpassed in the greater metropolitan Chicago area. For more information on Facial Plastic Surgeons, click here.

Both Dr. Churchill and Dr. McClane are certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology / Head and Neck Surgery and the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. They regularly attend scientific meetings and courses to stay current on the newest techniques and technology, however, not everything that is new is better. Only those new innovations that yield improved results will be employed. Dr. Churchill serves as a clinical assistant professor at Loyola University Medical Center and is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).
