In a move set to significantly enhance healthcare services in Western North Carolina, Novant Health has launched a new clinic dedicated to plastic and reconstructive surgery. The Novant Health Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery – Biltmore Park officially began treating patients on January 6, marking a key development in the region’s healthcare landscape.
Bridging Gaps in Patient Care
The new facility is led by renowned local plastic surgeons Dr. Sarah Sher and Dr. Paul Tenzel. Their expertise is poised to fill an essential gap in services for patients needing a variety of procedures, including reconstructive surgery following accidents, skin cancer reconstruction, and body contouring after significant weight loss.
“We’re excited to join Novant Health and continue delivering expert care that both our patients and this region deserve,” Dr. Tenzel commented, echoing the broader commitment to enhancing access to specialized care in the area.
A Comprehensive Model of Care
Dr. CJ Atkinson, deputy chief physician executive at Novant Health, highlighted the significance of the clinic in creating a more comprehensive care model for patients in the region. “The addition of Novant Health Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery in Asheville strengthens the holistic care approach we’re working to establish in Western North Carolina,” he said.
This integrated approach proves particularly advantageous for cancer patients, who often require coordinated care involving multiple specialists. By combining surgical and reconstructive services, the clinic ensures a seamless and efficient patient experience, guiding individuals through their treatment journey with consistent, high-quality care.
Strengthening Novant Health’s Community Commitment
The clinic’s opening aligns with Novant Health’s overarching mission to provide accessible healthcare across the Carolinas. Dr. John Mann, president of Specialty Institutes at Novant Health, expressed his enthusiasm about the new addition. “We are thrilled to welcome these trusted physicians as part of our efforts to create a healthier future for Western North Carolina,” he said.
With over 900 locations and a community-centric focus that contributed more than $1.6 billion in community benefits in 2023, Novant Health is firmly positioning itself as a leader in healthcare innovation. The new plastic and reconstructive surgery clinic is one of several initiatives designed to improve patient care and expand the service offerings in the region.
