Sargent reopens Chattanooga practice
Internationally recognized plastic surgeon Dr. Larry Sargent has opened a full-time practice in Chattanooga.
He returns after five years in Salt Lake City, Utah, where he was awarded “Best in Salt Lake City” the past two years.
He is known as a leader in craniofacial surgery, maxillofacial trauma, and has a particular interest and expertise in cosmetic surgery. He has appeared on the Emmy Award-winning and nationally syndicated show The Doctors, where he discussed his innovative techniques in craniofacial surgery. His new office, located at 2290 Ogletree Ave. Suite 112, has a state-certified operative suite for all cosmetic procedures.
Sargent has a 30-year history in Chattanooga, where he founded and served as director of the nationally recognized Tennessee Craniofacial Center at The Children’s Hospital, serving patients with facial deformities in over 40 states and several countries.
“When the opportunity presented itself to come back to Chattanooga full time, I was excited to make the move. The South has always felt like home, with most of my career spent here in Chattanooga,” he said.
