Dr Nicholas Lotz

Specialist Plastic Surgeon, Castlecrag Private Hospital, North Shore Private Hospital, Mater Hospital; Plastic Surgery Consultant, North Shore Cosmetic Surgery
Dr Nicholas Lotz is an Australian trained specialist Plastic Surgeon who performs Plastic, Reconstructive and Cosmetic Surgery. He studied medicine at the University of New South Wales, and then worked at the Royal North Shore Hospital during his intern and resident years. He had known for a long time that he wished to pursue a career in surgery. When he saw his first Plastic Surgery operation he realised how beautifully it combined the improvement of function with the restoration of form, and he knew then that Plastic Surgery was the career for him. Throughout his career he has dedicated himself to being the best surgeon that he can be. He was the first Australian surgeon to complete the extended Plastic Surgery training program which involved 3 years of general Plastic Surgery and then 2 years of specific training in facial surgery. After completing this he was awarded scholarships by both the Australasian Cleft Lip and Palate Association and the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, which allowed him to spend a year doing further work in France. His year in France (Paris and Nantes specifically) involved learning the art of ear reconstruction and facial aesthetic surgery, which enabled him to return home with additional skills to treat patients and to educate local surgeons.
