Haddock, M.D., is a Professor in the Department of Plastic Surgery at UT Southwestern Medical Center as well as the Vice Chair of Business Affairs for the Department of Plastic Surgery. He specializes in breast reconstruction surgery after cancer, aesthetic breast and body procedures, microsurgery, and extremity reconstruction in Dallas, Texas. Dr. Haddock completed an undergraduate degree in finance at the University of Texas at Austin and earned his medical degree at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. He completed residencies in general surgery and plastic surgery at the Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery at New York University Langone Medical Center, serving as Executive Chief Resident in his final year. He received advanced training through a hand and microsurgery fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania, gaining further experience in extremity reconstruction, complex microsurgery, and breast reconstruction. Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Dr. Haddock joined the UT Southwestern faculty in 2012. Among his other roles at UTSW, Dr. Haddock participates in extensive outcomes research. His two main goals are to achieve high patient satisfaction and to deliver excellent aesthetic results. A renowned breast reconstruction surgeon, he has led research studies on microsurgery and breast reconstruction, including the influential works describing the profunda artery perforator flap (PAP flap) procedure. He has studied operative processes and in doing so has reduced the operative time to half of the national average for bilateral breast reconstruction with the deep inferior epigastric perforators (DIEP) flaps. Dr. Haddock has published numerous papers and book chapters on plastic surgery, breast reconstruction, microsurgery, and cosmetic surgery. His research has appeared in publications such as Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery; Reconstructive Surgery Global Open; Aesthetic Surgery Journal; Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery; Annals of Plastic Surgery; Journal of Hand Surgery; and The Breast Journal. He has been invited to present his work at medical meetings around the globe and has been featured on multiple news outlets, such as Fox, NBC, and NPR. He is a leader in multiple plastic surgery societies and is an Associate Editor for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Global Open, the two preeminent journals in plastic surgery research and scholarship.
