Dr. Karen Lo: Pioneering Excellence in Breast Reconstruction Surgery

Innovative Techniques and Compassionate Care Transforming Lives at ROSE Medical Center

A distinguished plastic surgeon, Dr. Lo is making waves in the field of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery with her groundbreaking techniques and patient-centered approach. With a rich academic background and extensive training, she stands out as a leader in complex breast reconstruction, particularly for patients overcoming the challenges of cancer.

A California native, her journey began at Columbia University in New York, where she earned dual Bachelor of Arts degrees in English and Psychiatry. Her early career in the fashion industry in New York City nurtured her aesthetic sensibility, which she now applies to her surgical practice. She obtained her medical degree from the University of California, Davis, and further honed her skills through rigorous training in General Surgery and Plastic Surgery at the University of Colorado Health Science Center.

Dr. Lo’s dedication to her craft is exemplified by her integral role in the ROSE Medical Center Multidisciplinary Breast Team, where she employs innovative techniques to enhance patient outcomes. Notably, her expertise in nipple-sparing, direct-to-implant breast reconstruction using cutting-edge nerve repair technology is revolutionizing the field. Through these advancements, she is not only restoring patients’ physical appearance but also working to restore nipple sensation after mastectomy, greatly improving their quality of life.

“My approach to surgery is deeply rooted in understanding the individual stories of my patients,” Dr. Lo said. “I believe that each patient’s journey is unique, and I am committed to providing a warm, supportive environment as they navigate their treatment options. It is an honor to help them reclaim their lives and self-confidence.”

Among her other roles, she is affiliated with several esteemed institutions, including HCA HealthONE Sky Ridge, HCA HealthONE Presbyterian St. Luke’s, and the Sarah Cannon Cancer Institute. Her commitment to patient care is evident in her holistic philosophy, which prioritizes not only surgical excellence but also emotional support throughout the healing process.

As Dr. Lo continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in plastic surgery, her focus remains steadfast—delivering compassionate, innovative care to every patient she encounters.
