Education & Training
MEDICAL SCHOOLING
Always looking to achieve success in his work, Dr. Khorsandi was admitted to the combined B.S./M.D. programs at Villanova University and attended Temple University School of Medicine where he took an early interest in plastic surgery. He started a student chapter of Operation Smile while there, completed numerous early elective rotations in plastic surgery, and served as a research assistant to the Chairman of Plastic Surgery. Following medical school, he trained at the highly esteemed Ivy League surgery program at the University of Pennsylvania. This program selects only 6 candidates from a pool of over 1,000 accomplished medical students each year. During this time, he had the privilege of working at Pennsylvania Hospital, the country’s very first hospital, originally founded by Benjamin Franklin.
ADVANCED TRAINING
The advanced medical training Dr. Khorsandi completed took him to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP) and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), two institutions consistently ranked among the nation’s best hospitals by U.S. News & World Report. Dr. Khorsandi’s experience at these hospitals laid the foundations for his surgical career. His hard work and academic achievements led to his acceptance into the Plastic and Reconstructive Training Program at the Cleveland Clinic Weston. He spent two years refining his skills in Plastic, Reconstructive, and Hand Surgery, and became the program’s Chief Resident. He also co-authored a textbook chapter on wound healing and continued working on several research projects in plastic surgery.
ADDITIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS
Looking to develop his skills further, Dr. Khorsandi completed an Advanced Aesthetic Fellowship in Beverly Hills, where he learned to perform some of the most challenging types of surgery, including revision plastic surgery. From there, he trained in Houston, TX, in minimally invasive hand surgery and peripheral nerve reconstruction. Most recently, Dr. Khorsandi has pursued training in the groundbreaking techniques of migraine surgery.
