In July 2006, Dr. Jorge Reisin was joined in practice by his son, Dr. Elan Reisin, who had recently finished his training as Chief Resident in Plastic Surgery at the Georgetown University Medical Center.  Dr. Elan Reisin is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

After working as a Research Fellow in Genetics for the National Institute of Health, Dr. Elan Reisin decided to pursue a career in health care.  He received the Michigan Achievement Award during his undergraduate studies and completed his Batchelor of Science in Biopsychology at the University of Michigan.  Following that, he completed a Masters Degree in Medical Science at Wayne State University and received his M.D. at the Wayne State University School of Medicine.  He finished three years of General Surgery training at the prestigious Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit before transferring to Georgetown to complete an additional three years of residency specializing in Plastic Surgery. 

Dr Reisin is trained in both Cosmetic and Reconstructive Plastic Surgery procedures and has contributed his talent on several occasions to work with children in the Dominican Republic who suffer from birth defects and disfiguring injuries.  He is available to see patients in our Chevy Chase office and will be offering complimentary consultations for those patients interested in cosmetic surgery.
