About me
Sam Orkar believes in offering his patients sound advice that helps them make informed choices. He sees the consultation as key to this and therefore sets his patients and clients at ease for a frank and open discussion from the outset. Sam further believes in achieving excellence in simplicity using a thoughtful application of appropriate surgical techniques and attention to details.

He is keen on facial aesthetic surgery including nose reshaping, breast cosmetic surgery as well as breast reconstruction including microsurgical breast reconstruction, and body contouring surgery including weight loss patients.
