Dr. Joseph F. Capella is a plastic and reconstructive surgeon with a special interest in cosmetic surgery. He is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Dr. Capella received a BA degree from Cornell University and an M.D. from the State University of New York, Downstate Medical Center. He completed a general surgery residency at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center and Columbia University (both in New York City) and trained in plastic and reconstructive surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. In addition to his training and board certification, Dr. Capella also has more than __ years of experience in all facets of plastic surgery. This, combined with his training, gives him the breadth of knowledge and depth of experience that is brought to bear in each and every procedure he performs. Part of each physician's responsibility is the need to teach others and impart his/her own experience to other physicians. To that end, Dr. Capella is also a assistant clinical professor of surgery at the University Medical and Dental School of New Jersey. "I find teaching incredibly rewarding," says Dr. Capella. "Taking stock of your own experiences and communicating what you know to others is actually a cathartic experience that requires you to reflect on your own work and find the words to impart your feelings to others who want to learn from what you have to offer. Aside from helping my patients, I thoroughly enjoy my teaching commitments and making a contribution to the larger body of knowledge in the field of plastic surgery."Capella, Joseph F. is the author of 'Body Contouring Surgery After Weight Loss ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781886039186 and ISBN 1886039186.
