Meet Dr. Thomas Kinney
Training and Background
Dr. Kinney completed his undergraduate studies at Michigan Technological University before attending medical school at the Medical College of Wisconsin. He then completed his residency in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the Medical College of Wisconsin, where he also served as chief resident.
After residency, he pursued additional subspecialty training with a fellowship in Microvascular Reconstructive Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a member of several professional societies, including regional and national plastic surgery organizations.
Reconstructive Expertise
A significant part of Dr. Kinney’s practice focuses on reconstructive surgery. His areas of expertise include:
- Microsurgical reconstruction
- Breast reconstruction after mastectomy or lumpectomy
- Head and neck reconstruction for cancer, trauma, or complex wounds
This level of training in microsurgery allows us to offer more advanced reconstructive options to patients who need them, particularly those recovering from cancer treatment or serious injury.
Cosmetic Procedures
In addition to his reconstructive work, Dr. Kinney provides a wide range of cosmetic procedures for the face, breasts, and body. These include:
- Breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction
- Body contouring procedures such as tummy tuck, liposuction, arm and thigh lifts, and combination “mommy makeover” surgery
- Facial procedures including facelift, eyelid surgery, brow and forehead lift, nose surgery, and ear surgery
This combination of reconstructive and cosmetic experience allows him to address both function and aesthetics, whether a patient is restoring what was lost or making a change they have been considering for some time.
Approach to Patient Care
When you meet with Dr. Kinney, you can expect a thorough, straightforward consultation. He will review your medical history, listen to your goals, examine the areas you are concerned about, and explain which procedures fit best. You will talk through what surgery involves, what recovery looks like, and what kind of results are realistic for you.
As with all of our surgeons, the goal is to give you enough clear information to make a confident decision, with a plan that fits your health, lifestyle, and timeline.
