Welcome
I am Charles Thorne, MD a Plastic Surgeon with an interest and 20 years of experience in the surgical correction of ear deformities of all types including prominent ears, deformities related to trauma or cancer, and other anomalies such as microtia. This is somewhat unique. Not many Plastic Surgeons have an interest in or experience with these issues. I am also the Director of the Ear Anomalies Program at the Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery at the NYU Medical Center.
I encourage you to explore this site, view the patients’ photographs and email or call the office at 212-794-0044 with any questions. You will find one of the chapters I have written on ear reconstruction included in this website. You may also wish to explore my other website, www.microtia.com.
