Meet Dr. Halvorson
I grew up in Maplewood, NJ and went to Bates College in Maine. I attended Duke University School of Medicine and completed a general surgery residency at Brown University where I was given the “outstanding chief resident” award. I then completed a plastic surgery residency at Lahey Clinic that included rotations at Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Children’s Hospital of Boston, and Maine Medical Center. Throughout my surgical training, my goal was to become the most comprehensive surgeon possible. To that end, I pursued a fellowship in microsurgery and breast reconstruction at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
