Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done.
Among his various accolades, Dr. Bailey has been the recipient of the On-Time Doctor Award (2018, 2017, 2016, 2015), Compassionate Doctor Recognition (2018, 2017, 2016, 2015), Patients’ Choice Award (2018, 2017), Compassionate Doctor Award – 5 Year Honoree (2020), Harvard Health Professions Scholarship (1983), and was on the Dean’s List at the University of Iowa (1980-1983).
