Dr Eddy Dona is a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon who has dedicated his career to Plastic Surgery since 2007. He is a member of the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons and a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (FRACS).
While still at school, Eddy considered two career options: art and medicine. His love of creativity was reflected in his HSC subject choice of 3-unit art, where his major works topped the state and were part of the annual Art Express Exhibition.
However, a career in medicine beckoned, and Dr Dona completed his medical degree at the University of Sydney before undertaking 11 years of intensive training to pursue his surgical career. Of all the specialities available, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery was closest to his heart.
Plastic Surgery is far more than cosmetic; however, a large part of the training and practice is dedicated to reconstructive work. For the first 15 years of his specialist career as a Plastic Surgeon, Dr Dona dedicated part of his time working on some of Sydney’s busiest public hospitals, including emergency on-call services. During this time, his work was often focused on Reconstructive Plastic Surgery, such as hand and skin cancer surgery, including trauma and reconstructive microsurgery.
