Dr Safvat began his medical training at the University of New South Wales in Sydney. After obtaining his medical degrees and being selected into surgical training, he embarked on a further fifteen years of rigorous general and plastic surgery training including full-time surgical research at the Royal North Shore Hospital, before being awarded his FRACS (Plastics) under the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, the only government recognised body for training Surgeons in Australia.
He is also a member of ASPS, peak body for Plastic Surgeons in Australia a title only granted for Specialist Plastic Surgeons. He also holds memberships with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the NSW Hand Surgery Association. Upon successful completion of his Fellowship, he undertook a further post-training Fellowship in Micro-surgery and Aesthetic Surgery at St Vincent’s Hospital in Sydney. He is also actively involved in training registrars and the new generations of Plastic Surgeons. Coming from a highly academic family has contributed to Dr Safvat’s pursuit and interest in research and academia resulting in many publications in peerreviewed journals which have won international awards.
Dr Safvat is also a clinical lecturer and examiner at The Sydney University. Dr Safvat stays abreast with the latest advances and surgical techniques through regularly attending domestic and international conference, courses, and workshops. He is involved with regular presentations at national and international meetings and conferences.
Dr Safvat’s philosophy is to treat and care for his patients as he would want his own family to be treated and cared for with expertise, care, respect and professionalism. Dr Safvat consults two days each week in his Miranda Rooms and is able to see urgent or acute patients as required.
