About Dr John Flood

Choosing the facial right plastic and reconstructive surgeon is a significant decision. Dr John Flood brings more than 30 years of surgical experience to his practice in Sydney.

His focus is on providing clear, factual information about treatments, risks, and recovery, helping people make informed decisions.
