Deigni Plastic Surgery

About Deigni Plastic Surgery

I am a rocket scientist who became a plastic surgeon and this decision surprised a lot of people, as you can imagine. I switched to medicine because I wanted to work with people on an individual basis. I wanted to be in the room, accountable to one person at a time. Plastic surgery gave me that, and it gave me something else I did not expect: the chance to operate on every part of the body. That breadth is rare. I love it. I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees in aerospace engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology. After working at NASA Johnson Space Center here in Houston, I made the switch to medicine and completed my medical degree and Master of Public Health at Emory University in Atlanta. Plastic surgery residency followed at Saint Louis University School of Medicine in St. Louis. From there I returned to Houston for two fellowships: microvascular reconstructive surgery at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, and aesthetic plastic surgery at the Aesthetic
