Dr. Tom Bell, named one of the world’s best plastic surgeons and Canada’s best by W magazine, has finally returned home to join the iconic Toronto Plastic Surgeons (former SpaMedica Plastic Surgery Center) as its Lead Surgeon. Yorkville’s 66 Avenue Road location will now be home to one of Canada’s best plastic surgeons with decades of expertise.
Yorkville’s Avenue Road corridor is no stranger to Dr. Bell, who pioneered the address as Toronto’s “Beverly Hills of plastic surgery” with his first surgical center back in 1986.
Dr. Bell has dedicated his 25 years of practice to cosmetic plastic surgery of the face and body; he prides his excellence on the harmonious balance of vision, aesthetic appearance, and patient care. He is known for his masterful skill and personalized, respectful approach to patients.
CTV, Global, Cityline, The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star and The National Post all agree Dr. Bell is “a leading authority on cosmetic plastic surgery.”
When plastic surgeons are asked who they would send the wife or spouse to for a facelift, nose job or cosmetic body plastic surgery, they name Dr. Bell.
