Dr. Peter Tobias Korn, MD

I have known Dr. Korn for about eight years, ever since I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Alongside my breast surgeon, Dr. Korn performed my breast and DIEP flap reconstruction. He is soft-spoken, kind, caring, gentle, and always reassuring. Dr. Korn is truly an artist at heart, with a remarkable sense of aesthetics. I have returned to Dr. Korn since then and would trust no one else. I cannot stress enough what a wonderful surgeon he is or how much he has helped rebuild my self-confidence and self-esteem. A true artist!

I decided to have my mini tummy tuck done by Dr. Korn. I explained my concerns with him and he walked me through what the process would be like, he explained how he planned to fix my umbilical hernia as well as do a full muscle repair. I went to him several times trying to understand how he was going to get my “beer belly” into a mini tummy tuck. He reassured me that it can be done. He truly is an exceptional surgeon and a miracle worker because I could not see his vision. From my scar placement to the contour of my new shape, I look and feel incredible. I highly recommend his services. He is kind, competent and has good bed side manners. Also, I need to mention his office manager Wendy is kind and goes above and beyond to help you get your documents filled out on time so you can get back to work.

Dr. Korn is an exceptional plastic surgeon. He isn’t just incredibly skilled but he is compassionate, humble, respectful, and genuinely kind. When I was first diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer late 2025, I was terrified. Dr. Korn went over all the reconstruction options with me including an option I didn't know I had which was the DIEP flap. As someone who is petite and doesn’t have a lot of body fat, I didn’t even think that was an option, but he explained that it was possible in my situation. I remember leaving his office feeling at ease and knowing that I would be in the best care. In January 2026, I had my double mastectomy and DIEP flap surgery. I remember how the hospital nurses were amazed by how flawless Dr. Korn's work was. I had absolutely no bruising, and the breast incisions were barely visible. His precision and expertise truly showed. Just recently at my three months post-op follow-up appt I learned that no revisions were needed. The cancer is now gone, and… somehow my body looks better than it did before surgery. I feel incredibly lucky that Dr. Korn is my doctor. He truly has a combination of technical mastery and natural ability. I am forever grateful to Dr. Korn, his team at NYBRA (including Indra & Celeste) and Dr Marie Chen (my breast surgeon). They made me motivated and excited throughout my breast cancer journey and my future ahead. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Korn again!

Dr Peter Korn was a wonderful Doctor who understood my concerns and I was so happy to with my surgery

Dr. Korn is one the very best. He is absolutely priceless to me and if you are facing a cancer diagnosis and considering reconstruction, go no further. Dr. Korn stood with me during my surgery, 15.5 hours, never leaving my side (this I heard), performing what he does best in reconstruction. His compassion, commitment and dedication exceeds all others. You will never find a better doctor, never. He is my angel and what cancer took away, he gave me back. I am be forever grateful and one of biggest fans for life. .... K. White

Dr Korn is kind , compassionate , patient, he cares about each and every person he meets...he has an unconditional love for medicine ....

Dr Korn came highly recommended and, being under his care for many months after a reconstruction procedure, I understand why more than ever! First and foremost, he is truly meticulous and managed do what seemed impossible - repair my badly scarred face. I feel forever indebted to him and his staff. Second, every single office visit was quite positive: comfortable, beautiful environment, and lovely, highly competent staff.Third, although equally important, I felt so cared for and cared about by everyone. So glad to be on the other side of it, but I will miss the wonderful care experience and all of you. Thank you Dr Korn and team!

Upon researching Dr. Korn I came across two bad reviews on this site that worried me. Thankfully I still used him as my surgeon and he was amazing. I can't say enough good things about him. His work is top notch and he was very informative, knowledgeable, professional, took his time, never rushed me, nor pushed anything on me. I feel lucky that I found such a skilled surgeon. Some breast surgeons didn't even offer me the DIEP surgery, saying it was a long surgery and that I wouldn't want to go through that. I'm assuming the reason was because their plastic surgeons weren't that experienced with the procedure. I feel amazing and everything Dr. Korn presented to me was completely accurate. It's terrible for anyone to have an unfortunate experience but I would not let any negative reviews sway you from using Dr. Korn at all.

Dr. Korn is caring and very informative.

Dr. Korn is an amazing doctor! He takes the time to explain all your options. He is courteous, soft spoken, and a true aesthetician and plastic surgeon. The entire staff is great. The office is beautiful and wait time is more than acceptable. I cannot thank him and his staff enough for all they have done to help me through a very difficult time.
