About Dr. Menick
“Cosmetic and reconstructive surgery are complementary – the aesthetic skill needed to enhance the attractiveness of a normal, but imperfect nose or breast, can be used to define the tissue requirements and techniques required to rebuild a missing nose or breast lost to cancer or injury. In the same way, the anatomical and technical skills of reconstructive surgery allow the surgeon to better understand and safely improve the appearance of a normal face.”
Dr. Menick graduated from Yale University medical school. Over 9 years, he completed general surgical training at Stanford University and the University of Arizona. He then specialized in plastic surgery at the University of California, Irvine. Advanced Fellowships in Plastic Surgery followed in England, California, and at the University of Miami.
He is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a member of the American Association Of Plastic Surgeons, the American Society Of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the American Society Of Maxillofacial Surgeons (Visiting Professor 2009 — 2010), the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, the Canadian Society of Plastic Surgeons, and the Rhinoplasty Society (President 2006).
He is a Clinical Associate Professor in the Division of Plastic Surgery at the University of Arizona.
Currently in private practice, he was Chief of Plastic Surgery (1991 — 1996) at the University of Arizona and Chief of Plastic Surgery (1985 — 1998) at the Tucson Veterans Administration Hospital.
