Plastic Surgeon Who Served In Vietnam Has Helped Provide Over 230 Surgeries For Veterans

A plastic surgeon and Vietnam vet is helping to restore confidence in wounded veterans.

For the past few years, Dr. Timothy Miller has performed reconstructive surgeries on veterans as part of Operation Mend, a program at UCLA that provides free plastic surgery and medical support to veterans who have sustained severe facial and other injuries, according to the initiative’s website. Miller, who serves as the program’s chief reconstructive surgeon, recently published a book entitled, The Surgical Reconstruction of War: Operation Mend, which tells of the journeys of 11 of his patients, along with their before-and-after photos, according to the New York Daily News.
