MEET DR. ROBERT ZUBOWSKI, M.D.

Despite two decades of experience he’s garnered as a board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Robert Zubowski still gets excited about the most basic of cosmetic surgery’s principles — it can and will positively impact people’s lives. He’s become well-known for perfecting a facial cosmetic surgery technique that not only rejuvenates his patients’ natural looks, but also visually turns back the clock as much as ten to twelve years. In addition, Dr. Zubowski is also recognized as a top breast augmentation, reduction, and lift surgeon.

PATIENT PHILOSOPHY

Our Center was established with a critical eye on our patients’ safety. Early on we realized that the quality of staff together with the environment in which they function affect outcomes. High on his list of employee qualities is the professionalism, friendliness, patience and empathy a patient needs during the cosmetic rejuvenation process. You will find them ready to support you all through your cosmetic surgery journey.

Working with architects and interior designers to interpret our vision, we created a state-of-the art cosmetic surgery center that reflects our focus on patient safety within an atmosphere of calmness and serenity. To maximize control over patient safety and quality within our Center we included SurgiCenter, a fully accredited surgical environment.

To further validate the surgical skills and years of experience he gained while completing a general surgery residency at New York Medical College and an additional residency at the prestigious Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Dr. Zubowski has been board-certified in both plastic and general surgery. He remains fiercely loyal and grateful to both of the institutions that trained and propelled him to his career. He has served as an associate professor of Plastic Surgery at New York Medical College and as the plastic surgery specialty director of the Cleveland Clinic Foundation Alumni Association, where he is also an adjunct staff member. Cleveland Clinic is ranked as the No. 2 hospital in the world again by Newsweek’s World’s Best Hospitals 2022 list. Dr. Zubowski is a former associate director of plastic surgery at Ridgewood’s The Valley Hospital and holds a Certificate of Advanced Education in Cosmetic Surgery from the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

NOTABLE EXPERT

Dr. Zubowski has become increasingly recognizable, as he regularly speaks on all aspects of cosmetic surgery to various public and professional groups. Whenever the media is in need of expert information or a valuable opinion on new cosmetic surgery techniques, Dr. Zubowski is among the select group of professionals who field the calls. He has also notably appeared as Barbara Walters’ guest on  “The View,” FOX News, and the New Jersey News Network.

COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONS

After several years of performing breast reconstruction surgery for cancer survivors, Dr. Zubowski began to recognize a need for support among these courageous women, so he co-founded the New Jersey chapter of Image Reborn, a non-profit support group for breast reconstruction patients. Additionally, he works pro bono for Interplast, with whom he travels to Third World countries and performs reconstructive surgeries for children born with birth defects. He also invests in his own community, formerly serving as president of his town’s Board of Health and as a member of its recreation commission. During the time he has off, Dr. Zubowski spends time with his family and enjoys skiing, golfing, and maintaining a vigorous daily exercise routine.
