About Raja Nalluri, MD

Dr. Raja Nalluri embodies the highest standards of modern plastic surgery. Patient safety and effective results are the cornerstones of his practice. Dr. Nalluri’s credentials reflect a lifetime of dedication to medicine. He trained rigorously under some of the nation’s top plastic surgeons at Case Western Reserve University. Medical license, board certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, and staff privileges at the local hospital and ambulatory surgery center have followed. Dr. Raja Nalluri has been rigorously trained to skillfully and safely perform a variety of plastic surgery procedures. Many professionals who are not plastic surgeons also perform these specialized procedures without all of these credentials or privileges at a local hospital which can lead to many problems for patients who unknowingly choose those professionals. Dr. Nalluri knows this first hand, having treated patients with poor results and complications from these others professionals. When choosing a physician for your important surgery, be sure to ask if they are ""Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery."" Dr. Raja Nalluri is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and has received numerous awards and recognitions, including U.S. News & World Report, Castle Connolly 2011 through 2020, Cosmopolitan Magazine Hot List, America's Top Doctors, Medical LiveWire Award for Excellence in Plastic Surgery, International Association of Plastic Surgeons and Doctor's Choice. He has also served as a Clinical Assistant Professor for two medical schools for over ten years, training many future doctors. Raja Nalluri, M.D. has been recognized by Florida Governor Rick Scott, who commended Nalluri’s success. Straight-A’s through high school and college, four years of medical school and six years of residency earned him board certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. His years of experience having treated over 11,000 patients and artistic talent allow him to achieve natural appearing facial and body results safely and effectively. Dr. Nalluri performs plastic surgery with a licensed anesthesiologist in an accredited operating room. In preparation for surgery, he provides patients with clear and accurate information: brochures, sketches where appropriate, detailed informed consent, sample photographs of average results, and a thorough discussion with emphasis on realistic goals and expectations as well as potential complications.
