Dr Ajay Chauhan trained with the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons and the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons in Melbourne and Brisbane after several years training in General Surgery. He was drawn to the specialty because of the challenges involved – a high level of surgical skill, attention to detail and an extensive knowledge of anatomy. However, it is the ability to restore a patient’s sense of self that has kept him passionate about his profession.
Plastic Surgery seeks to restore form and function, and both are equally important for the face. The face is how we are represented in the world, how we communicate and its restoration can be the most rewarding task undertaken by a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon.
Dr Chauhan travels extensively to further his understanding and to learn from world experts in the fields of reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. He has been invited to speak at a number of international conferences and seminars and remains an active clinical researcher.He is involved in Multidisciplinary Care of head and neck cancer patients at each of his hospital appointments, as well as the Skin and Cancer Foundation of Victoria. He is experienced in surgery for skin cancer, including melanoma, especially where a patient may have had prior surgery or radiation therapy.
Dr Chauhan also has public hospital appointments at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre and Monash Health as a consultant Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon.
Ajay is known to be a thoughtful, caring surgeon who will spend time discussing the potential options for each individual patient.
