Dr. Minas Chrysopoulo

Raised and educated in London, England, "Dr C" is a graduate of the University of London where he received his bachelor of science degree in Advanced Anatomy and Morphology prior to completing his medical degree.

In 1997 , Dr. C moved from London to South Texas. Apparently this was "in search of a better climate". He continued his training in general surgery at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio prior to his fellowship in plastic and reconstructive surgery at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. He has also completed fellowships in burn surgery and burn reconstruction at Shriner's Burn Hospital for Children in Galveston, and hand surgery and microsurgery at the Indiana Hand Center. It was during his general surgery residency in San Antonio that Dr C met his wife, Amanda, a native of Austin.

We are proud to report that Dr C was recently named one of "America's Top Surgeons". He has also been a recipient of the San Antonio Business Journal's "Top 40 Under Forty" Award and has been featured on KENS 5 News for using new technology to optimize breast reconstruction surgery. Dr C was also the featured guest on "DeLeon's Dialogue", a radio show about surviving breast cancer. Please click on the link below to listen to the show:
