A Legacy of Service

For many practitioners, their path to the field of plastic surgery is a relatively straightforward one. However, Dr. Hamawy's passion for helping others was forged not through his accomplished academic career, but rather as a trauma surgeon in the Army. There, he had the opportunity to treat various patients during his tour of duty in Iraq and for several years at the Madigan Army Medical Center in Tacoma, Washington.

A Philosophy of Care

Dr. Hamawy got to witness firsthand how vital his skills could be. It was here that he realized people’s outward appearances were deeply connected to their sense of self and overall wellness. He realized then that health is a much broader concept than he had once considered.

A Skill Set Beyond the Usual

In addition to shaping his philosophy of care, it allowed him to hone his skills. As he puts it: “Few surgeons are fortunate enough to have been exposed to this depth, breadth, and sheer complexity of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures. I attribute my highly developed surgical skills to my Army experience.” These moments of intensity and connection and the intense training he received are the cornerstone of the PrincetonMD practice.

But this philosophy carries over to all the procedures he presides over—no matter if they are surgical or designed for a patient looking for ways to enhance their overall health and wellness. Dr. Hamawy sees his role as a combination of technician, artist, and teacher. He understands that patients have many options today and that patient education is crucial to making informed decisions. In turn, practitioners must do their due diligence to stay abreast of all the different ways to offer care in these exciting times.
