Meet Dr. Evans
''South-African born, Canadian and American trained, I feel very fortunate to now live and practice in the best place in the world.
I chose plastic surgery as a career because it not only deals with the abolishment of disease, but also reconstruction, restoration, and aesthetic considerations.
I believe in the highest quality patient care. It is my goal for you to be well-informed ahead of your procedure and meticulously cared for throughout your surgical experience."

Plastic vs. Cosmetic Surgeon?
In Canada, physicians, dentists, and naturopaths can all use the phrase 'cosmetic surgeon'. Only a successful MD surgical graduate of an accredited plastic surgery training program can use the stand-alone designation 'plastic surgeon', without any additional words, phrases, or modifications.
