Ron Israeli, M.D. is a nationally recognized expert in breast reconstruction and a founding partner of NYBRA Plastic Surgery. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Plastic Surgery and has been in practice since 1997.

Dr. Israeli provides an individualized approach for every patient, offering the full range of breast reconstruction options. He is among the first surgeons in the New York region to regularly perform microvascular free flap breast reconstruction. He is also a leader in direct-to-implant reconstruction, and is among an early group of surgeons to routinely perform prepectoral implant breast reconstruction. Dr. Israeli has a special interest in revision surgery for unsatisfactory breast reconstruction outcomes. He routinely performs total capsulectomy for symptomatic implant capsules, subpectoral to prepectoral implant conversion for animation deformities, and natural-tissue flaps for the salvage of failed implant breast reconstructions. Dr. Israeli’s practice also focuses on breast reduction surgery and body contouring after weight loss.

Dr. Israeli has been named by U.S. News & World Report among the top plastic surgeons in the nation, and has been on Castle Connolly’s Top Doctor Listing for the New York Metro Area for over a decade. For his leadership in post-mastectomy breast reconstruction, Dr. Israeli was honored by the American Cancer Society with their 2007 Physician of Distinction Award.
