About Dr. Sternberg

At the University of Georgia, Dr. Sternberg graduated magna cum laude with his undergraduate degree in microbiology. He earned his M.D. at the Medical College of Georgia. Arriving in Jacksonville in 2002, Dr. Sternberg completed a five-year general surgery residency at the highly acclaimed Mayo Clinic, where he focused on general and vascular surgical procedures like transplanting livers, removing burst appendices, and performing cancer surgeries. Dr. Sternberg then shifted to plastic surgery and completed a two-year plastic and reconstructive surgery fellowship at Vanderbilt University.

Although Dr. Sternberg didn’t start in plastic surgery, he has such a profound appreciation for how it can transform lives — and how it’s not purely about vanity. Dr. Sternberg loves being able to help his patients “feel great about themselves, recapture their youth and reinvigorate their lives.” This is why he continues to study, learn, and grow his knowledge base in order to provide his patients with the latest and greatest procedures available.
