Dr. Parker is a Las Vegas native that comes from a family whose name has been in the medical community since the early 1960s. Like his family before, Dr. Parker is an excellent surgeon and sought after as an authority in his field of practice. Dr. Parker began his studies at Brigham Young University and received an undergraduate degree in Business. He went on to study medicine at the Chicago Medical School where he earned his medical degree and was selected as one of the few to go on to train at the University of California Los Angeles, UCLA. Here he completed his internship and residency in the field of general surgery. To finish out his training and wind up his scholastic career, Dr. Parker attended the University of Wisconsin where he received extensive, focused training in cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery. Although perfectly qualified, it is important to remember that plastic surgery is not just about degrees and affiliations. Plastic surgery requires an artist’s eye with the skillful hand of a surgeon. These are traits that can not be taught in an educational setting. Dr. Parker’s trained, skillful eye is evident in the results of his work. He is a perfectionist that has mastered the art of selecting which surgery, technique and possibly implant are best suited for his patients. Quite often, surgeons lose track of the individual nature of each patient; as they progress in their practice they begin to have an assembly line approach to surgery. In Dr. Brian J Parker’s office, you will not find a cookie cutter approach to surgery. Each patient is evaluated for their individual needs, their specific body types, and their desired outcome. A surgical plan is then formulated with you in mind.
