Board-Certified Plastic Surgeons in Toronto
Dr. Mark McRae & Dr. Matthew McRae
McRae Plastic Surgery’s Toronto clinic is inside St. Michael’s Hospital, in the heart of downtown Toronto. This is where you meet your surgeon for your consultation, your planning visits and your follow-up care.
Your care is guided by your surgeon from the first consultation through recovery. Dr. Mark and Dr. Matthew believe excellent outcomes come from listening closely, continuity of care, and direct surgeon involvement, not rushed consultations or delegated care.
The focus is natural-looking results and decisions made with you, not for you.
