Nadia S. Afridi M.D., F.R.C.S.

Dr. Nadia S. Afridi is a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Canada, an associate fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Upon completing medical school, Dr. Afridi entered a highly competitive integrated plastic surgery residency program at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Five years of residency training culminated in a final year as Chief Resident. Dr. Afridi then completed one year of sub-specialty training in reconstructive and aesthetic breast surgery and body contouring with internationally recognized surgeon and scholar, Dr. G. Patrick Maxwell. Before entering practice, Dr. Afridi spent a year working for the non-profit organization Interplast. As the Jerome P. Webster fellow, she was primarily performing complicated reconstructive surgery for children in the developing world. As one of the few female plastic surgeons in New York City, she is specifically interested in women's health issues as they relate to plastic surgery. In particular, being a new mother has made her keenly aware of the needs of young moms who want to experience the joys of family but restore their pre-baby physiques.
