Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dr. Craig received his undergraduate degree and Master of Arts degree from Kent State University. He received his medical doctorate from the University of Missouri/Columbia and continued his general surgery training and his plastic surgery training at the University of Missouri/Columbia, as well.

Dr. Craig also completed a cosmetic surgery fellowship with Plastic Surgery Associates of Miami, Florida.

“Most people visit me because they feel younger than they look.”

Dr. Craig says that his patients are not looking for dramatic transformations. They want to look more refreshed, youthful and very natural. He has a frank discussion with each person and considers it a privilege to figure out what is best for that patient. There’s a lot of talk and questions from both sides. The final step during a consultation is the examination to determine if the patient’s anatomy is appropriate for the procedure. “We have a frank talk,” he says, and “If I believe it’s right, I tell my patients, ‘I’ll get you there’.”

“My greatest referrals come from other patients or from other physicians.”

Dr. Craig is known as a high-quality surgeon who really cares. That sums up his reputation, and it is the reason that the majority of his patients come from referrals.
