Philosophy

Dr. Friedlander believes that informed patients make the best surgical decisions. She listens to her patients carefully, then provides clear and comprehensive information so they approach surgery fully informed about their options. The decision to undergo plastic surgery is an important one and should never be rushed.

Expertise, Training, and Education

Using her more than 15 years of experience, Dr. Friedlander performs a variety of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures, but focuses on facial rejuvenation and body contouring as well as surgery of the breast. She has been quoted in local and national magazines, as well as newspapers, as an expert in plastic surgery.

Dr. Friedlander grew up in Tennessee, but has resided in the Tri-State area for over three decades. She attended medical school at the State University of New York and completed a full general surgery training program in four years, rather than the usual, five. She continued with her plastic surgery training at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Montefiore Hospital in the Bronx before entering private practice in 1987. She is Board Certified in both general surgery and plastic surgery, although she limits her practice exclusively to plastic surgery. She has privileges at several local hospitals, including Overlook Hospital in Summit, NJ, Saint Barnabas Hospital in Livingston, NJ, and the Ambulatory Care Center in Livingston, NJ.

Professional Societies and Leadership

Dr. Friedlander is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery as well as the prestigious American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. She is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons and the International College of Surgeons and has remained active in these, and other, medical societies at the state and regional levels.

Dr. Friedlander has been on the staff of Overlook Hospital since entering private practice. She was Chief of the Plastic Surgery Section from 1996-1999 and currently serves as the Vice Chairperson of the Department of Surgery at Overlook Hospital.

As one of only a small percentage of Board Certified plastic surgeons who are women, she is firmly committed to ensuring that all women have access to breast health care. She has been active in the American Cancer Society for many years working tirelessly in their Breast Outreach programs to ensure all underprivileged women and senior citizens have access to care and treatment. As a member of the Susan G. Komen Foundation speaker's bureau, she is a frequent speaker at both public and medical events and has been quoted in national and regional magazines as an expert in breast surgery.

Honors

Dr. Friedlander was honored by her peers when she was voted a top doctor in New Jersey. She has appeared in the Castle Connolly Guide of “Top Doctors in the New York Metropolitan Area” for several years.  

 

 

 

 

What Does It Mean To Be Board Certified?

Board certification is a "stamp of approval" that a surgeon's cosmetic surgery skills are up to the rigorous standards set by the members of the American Board of Medical Specialties (the only recognized board of its kind). These surgeons are required to take exhaustive written and oral examinations which demonstrate their competence and skills. Certification is awarded by the American Board of Plastic Surgery to the doctors who are trained, not only in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, but who have extensive training in addition to plastic surgery resulting in skills and knowledge that go far beyond a specific area. This broad knowledge attained through many years of surgical residency and experience can make a substantial difference in the outcome of your surgery and makes these select doctors uniquely qualified to perform cosmetic surgery of the face and body. Dr. Friedlander is such a surgeon.
