Dr. Burt Brent's Patients

Dr. Brent has been an icon in his efforts to help patients with microtia. I would like to thank him for all that he has done throughout the years. I have personally had the honor of treating or corresponding with thousands of parents of children with microtia worldwide.

This is the reason that I have remained EXCLUSIVELY a pediatric ear surgeon dedicating my life to children with microtia. With this duty comes much responsibility. I have always felt that all parents of children born with microtia should understand all of the options before making a decision for their child. This is the only way that parents can feel comfortable with their decision. I make myself available as long as necessary until parents fully understand what is ahead for their child.

Because Dr. Brent and I utilize the cartilage technique, our styles are very similar. I have made adjustments to the standard technique that have changed the landscape of microtia surgery, especially in the area of ear elevation.

Please know that my staff has been accommodating Dr. Brent's patients and strive to continue the excellent care that he provided for years....of course with our own personality and vision. Call us anytime or call after hours and speak with me in person: 210-477-3277.

Again, I thank Dr. Brent for changing the lives of so many patients.
