| Dr. Todd B.
Koch is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. To reach
this goal he has undergone a rigorous course of training.
He completed his medical school education at the prestigious
State University of New York at Buffalo. At the Millard
Fillmore Hospital in Buffalo, New York, he trained for
five years in a General Surgery Residency Program. During
this time, he was exposed to all aspects of surgery
including orthopedics, pediatrics, neurosurgery, urology,
plastic and reconstructive, hand, vascular, broad training
allowed him to develop his surgical skills and knowledge.
After participating in all of these wonderfully exciting
and stimulating areas, he decided upon plastic surgery
as his calling.
His travels then took him to one of the most nationally
recognized Plastic Surgery programs in Toledo at the
Medical College of Ohio. There he spent two years learning
his trade. This specialty training included reconstructive,
cosmetic, maxillofacial, congenital, pediatric, hand,
burns, tumor removal, microsurgery, head and neck, trauma
and many other challenging surgical problems. The next
6 months were spent in a dedicated Hand Fellowship.
He returned to Buffalo in 1986 with his wife and first
daughter to begin private practice in Plastic and Reconstructive
Surgery. His second daughter was born shortly thereafter.
Work consumed most of his waking hours but he still
managed to find time for his family. Most of his outside
interests revolve around athletic activities like running,
spinning, bicycling, skiing and weight lifting.
As an assistant clinical professor at the medical school,
he has donated many hours instructing young physicians
and residents in the art of Plastic Surgery. Over the
years he has become highly proficient in the area of
Cosmetic Surgery. His practice is now concentrated in
this area.
