Dr. Steinsapir's training is in both oculofacial and cosmetic surgery.
He attended medical school and internship at the David Geffen School of
Medicine at UCLA. Following this, he trained in ophthalmology at The
University of Chicago, which has a very strong tradition of eye plastic
surgery. He went on to complete a two-year fellowship in orbital
surgery and research at UCLA's Jules Stein Eye Institute followed by a
one-year fellowship in oculofacial plastic surgery also at the Jules
Stein Eye Institute. UCLA is widely recognized as having one of the
best oculofacial plastic surgery fellowships in the country with very
strong training in cosmetic and restorative surgery. After this he
completed two more years of fellowship training in cosmetic surgery
with a well-known cosmetic surgeon in Rancho Mirage. The discipline of
microsurgery from ophthalmology as well as detailed knowledge of how to
take care of the eye, the most precious facial structure, has been
invaluable training, creating the basis for one of the premier
practices of oculofacial and cosmetic surgery in the country.
