MEET DR. GALLANT MD, FRCSC
"I believe that your outward appearance should be a reflection of how you feel on the inside. Cosmetic surgery affords you the option of making the two coincide." - Dr. Michel Gallant
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE After briefly returning to his alma mater during his first year of practice, Dr. Gallant relocated with his family and established his practice in our nation’s capital, Ottawa, Ontario. Currently, Dr. Gallant is an associate at the Montfort Hospital, and he also lectures at the University of Ottawa where he mentors and teaches medical students, residents and future plastic surgeons. Dr. Gallant is an active member of the Canadian Society of Plastic Surgery, the National Capital Society of Plastic Surgery, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario and the Ontario Medical Association. Dr. Gallant’s 12 years of experience with all facets of aesthetic (cosmetic) plastic surgery has made him very comfortable with many surgical procedures. He offers breast enhancement surgery (breast implants, breast lift, breast reduction and reconstruction after breast cancer surgery), facial rejuvenation (facelift, neck lift, lip enhancement, ear pinning and eyelid surgery), body contouring (liposuction, tummy tuck, body lift, arm lift, thigh lift, and Brazilian butt lift), genital rejuvenation surgery (labioplasty, hymen reconstruction and vaginal tightening). He also personally performs all non-surgical injectables such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and JUVÉDERM®. |
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND Originally from the East Coast, Dr. Gallant completed his undergraduate training at l’Université de Moncton in New Brunswick, where he received his Diploma in Health Sciences (DSS). He went on to study medicine at l’Université de Sherbrooke in Quebec, where he completed his Doctor of Medicine degree (MD) graduating in 2005. The ability to directly, and somewhat instantly, improve a patient’s quality of life was what brought Dr. Gallant to the world-renowned McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, where he underwent a five-year training program in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. McGill has a rich Canadian history, being the first Faculty of Medicine in Canada and one of the first in North America. It has also been ranked first in Canada among medical-doctoral universities for the last 10 years by Maclean’s University Rankings. Dr. Gallant studied under Dr. H. Bruce Williams, C.M. who just recently received the Order of Canada for his contributions to the practice of plastic surgery, particularly for helping burn victims as well as young people with congenital abnormalities. Dr. Gallant’s interest in breast surgery and cosmetic surgery brought him to continue his studies. He spent the following year working with some of the McGill experts in the field of breast surgery. Dr. Gallant became a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (FRCSC) in plastic surgery after his training. |
