Dr. Gruenwald began his plastic surgery practice in 1978, when he helped establish "Associates in Plastic Surgery" in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. 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.

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.
