Up Pediatric Plastic Surgery
At Up Pediatric Plastic Surgery, Shitel D. Patel, MD and Tuan A. Truong, MD, form a close-knit team with years of collective experience in all aspects of pediatric plastic surgery. The primary goal of Up Pediatric Plastic Surgery is to help parents in Webster and Houston, Texas, find solutions for their children, enabling them to lead happy, normal lives long into the future.
To do this, the team emphasizes procedures that keep safety front and center, all while restoring function and appearance. The team of surgeons helps children and parents negotiate a number of in-born or acquired defects, from cleft lip and palate to ear abnormalities to wounds and scars. No issue is too small when it comes to the well-being of your child.
The plastic surgeons at Up Pediatric Plastic Surgery have extensive training in craniofacial techniques that minimize risk, and they are always looking for solutions that provide parents with peace of mind and children with professional, compassionate care. All pre-surgical and post-surgical care is tailored to ensure a safe recovery and a successful outcome for each child.
To help parents get the results they want in a timely manner, we offer decreased wait times, appointments (both in-person and virtual) within a week, and sometimes even on the same day.
The personalized care at Up Pediatric Plastic Surgery underscores the importance of quality over quantity. The staff at the practice stresses education and forms a partnership of trust and understanding with every parent that walks through the door, with the full understanding that any procedure can be a scary one when it comes to their child.

Message from the Founder
Shitel D. Patel, MD |
I am a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon specializing in Craniofacial Surgery. Since I was young, I always knew that my passion in life was to practice plastic surgery. I received my medical degree from the University of South Florida in 2007. I completed my Plastic Surgery Residency at UT Houston, and finished my studies in 2016, with a fellowship in Craniofacial Surgery at the prestigious University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas. Additionally, I am board certified in General Surgery. During my residencies and fellowship, I trained alongside a wide array of talented surgeons, before finally opening up my own practice in Houston in 2016. I feel extremely fortunate to be part of a profession that helps patients look and feel better. We have been fortunate to add the expertise of Dr. Tuan A. Truong to the practice. Our patients appreciate our attention to detail, warm bedside manner, and professional integrity. Our goal is to have form meet function so that each patient can have the best possible experience and outcome. We have put together a team to give your child the attention they deserve.
