These posts include memorable episodes from my Grand Canyon backpacking adventure, the impact of placebo in healthcare, and the evolution of my career over the years.
Patient Care and Procedures
As a retired plastic surgeon, I am committed to educating others about various aspects of plastic surgery. This section includes discussions about specific procedures, such as breast lift at the time of breast implant removal, and the safety of combining procedures. I also provide insights into the importance of preoperative care, postoperative care, and patient safety.

Additionally, I share recommendations for educational resources that I have found valuable throughout my career.

Overall Experience with Dr. Sowder
The reviews of Dr. Sowder are generally positive, with many patients expressing their satisfaction with their experience with the doctor.
Positive Experiences
Many patients praised Dr. Sowder's kindness, compassion, and skill as a surgeon. Some reviewers mentioned that she made them feel comfortable and calm during their procedures, and that she explained everything clearly and reassured them along the way. Others praised her beautiful results, saying that they looked better than they had in years. Some patients also appreciated her sense of humor and caring nature.
Negative Experiences
However, not all reviews were positive. Some patients expressed negative experiences with Dr. Sowder, including one who felt that she only cared about her bottom line and was rude and uncaring. Another patient had a semi-negative experience with pain management during surgery discharge. One reviewer, a professional body piercer, disputed Dr. Sowder's claim that an inverted nipple piercing required anesthetic and thought her prices were extortionate.
