About Dr. Stalder

I am an Assistant Professor of Clinical Surgery in the LSU Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and currently the Director of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at University Medical Center, and the Co-Director of the Microsurgery Fellowship at LSU. I am a graduate of the LSU School of Medicine in New Orleans where I also completed my plastic surgery residency training. Additionally, I completed a fellowship in craniofacial surgery at the Miami Children's Health System. Following this I joined the faculty at LSU, where I have been since 2017.

I am board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and I am a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. My clinical practice and academic research focuses on complex microsurgical breast reconstruction following mastectomy, the microsurgical treatment of lymphedema after breast cancer treatment, and microsurgical techniques for complex facial reconstruction after trauma or resection of cancer. Additionally I am a member of the cleft and craniofacial team at Children's Hospital of New Orleans.

My Little Something Extra: I am an avid music fan and have played the guitar for over 20 years. One of my prized possessions is my 1976 Gibson Les Paul electric guitar.
