Since then, I have developed a practice focused on facial aesthetic and rejuvenate surgery, specializing in surgery of the nose and sinuses, eyelids, forehead, ears, and neck. I believe that my primary roles as physician and surgeon are to listen to my patients' concerns, educate and inform them about their options, and finally, to implement a plan to achieve optimal surgical results with minimal recovery time. I feel strongly that surgery should achieve natural results that enhance my patients' own looks, without appearing artificial or "done." The vast majority of my practice consists of referrals from previous patients and my colleagues. ### Professional highlights I grew up in Chicago, Illinois, and received my Bachelor of Arts degree from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. After completing medical school, internship and residency training at Stanford University Medical Center, I pursued a fellowship in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, with combined studies at the UCLA Medical Center and a private practice in Beverly Hills. ### Outside of medicine Outside of Medicine, Dr. Fann is married and has two young children. He enjoys bicycling, tennis, music and travel. He is a life-long Chicago Cubs fan. ## Education and training **Medical school:** Stanford University School of Medicine, 1987 **Internship:** Stanford University Hospital **Residency:** Stanford University Hospital **Fellowship:** University of California, Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, CA, Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery ## Board certifications -
