He is the only doctor in the United States who has been board-certified in both Plastic Surgery and Pediatrics. Educated at five Ivy League institutions, he brings a new, holistic approach to plastic surgery. He developed The Whole Being Plan, a unique program that uses both Eastern and Western methods: therapies include acupuncture, holistic medical aesthetics, psychotherapy, reflexology and aromatherapy. The plan prepares patients for their surgery, helps heal them afterwards, and continues the success of their operation into the future. Dr. Ronel is an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. He was named one of America's Top Plastic Surgeons by the Consumer's Research Council of America, and he is a national trainer for Artefill, Radiesse, and sits on the Allergan Silicone Breast Implant Panel.
