Profile of Lisa Lynn Sowder, MD

I am a plastic surgeon practicing in Seattle since 1991. I have the privilege of helping patients achieve their personal best. This quote from Dr. Gaspare Tagliocozzi in 1597 says it best: "We restore and make whole those parts which nature or ill fortune have taken away, not so much to delight the eye but to buoy the spirit...." I regularly participate in continuing medical education conferences to stay up to date on new procedures and treatments. I have given many presentations on plastic surgery procedures over the years to groups of doctors, nurses, physical therapists and other health professionals. I have been interviewed for several specials on plastic surgery by Seattle’s KOMO television and appeared on Seattle’s Town Meeting to discuss the safety concerns of breast implants. I was also featured in a special report on healthy aging in the Seattle Times.
