Professional Background

Dr. Kalus is passionate about his patients, and about his art. He believes in the power of plastic surgery in transforming one’s concept of self, be it for a woman facing mastectomy, a child with a large birthmark or scar, or an adolescent with a bump on her nose. He practices in the old tradition of what you would expect from your doctor. Rather than following the familiar adage of “time is money” so often encountered in medicine today, Dr. Kalus strongly believes that his patients deserve his utmost attention and time. That is why he has always phoned his patients personally after their surgery to ensure that their recovery is progressing well. He leaves no stone unturned in ensuring the likelihood of a successful outcome while maximizing patient safety and minimizing risk.
