He was one of the principal plastic surgeons for that group for 3 decades. For 25 years of that time, he also was affiliated with LSU as an associate professor in plastic surgery for the Division of Surgery, LSU School of Medicine. In early 2010, Dr. Gruenwald availed himself of the opportunity to devote full attention to the area of his professional passion, the current and dynamic field of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. To make this possible, he relocated to a new contemporary office, specifically designed to accommodate his active aesthetic surgical practice. Dr. Gruenwald is now able to provide an enhanced personal and professional experience to those patients wishing to explore the many facets of contemporary aesthetic surgery. He is, of course, maintaining the same level of expertise and skill for which his distinguished professional reputation has grown and thrived in the Baton Rouge community. Dr. Gruenwald has been nominated to the list of Best Plastic Surgeons by his peers.
