Subbio
MD
As a child, Dr. Subbio was affectionately known to his family as “the little artist”. Even in elementary school his talents for the visual arts were obvious and soon led to a string of awards and accolades in local and regional art competition. As a teenager he was focused intently on applying to art school when he saw a documentary which changed his life forever: the story of American Plastic Surgeons volunteering their time to help cleft lip and burn victims in India. Seeing these gifted scientists using their hands and artistic vision to forever change the lives of others had a profound effect on him, and his new purpose was born. To this day, he volunteers his time on trips to third world countries one or two times per year to help those less fortunate through the modern artistic miracle of plastic surgery.
