Summary

  • Dr. Leslie Irvine is a board certified otolaryngologist and fellowship trained facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon.

    Dr. Irvine received her undergraduate degree from Harvard College with honors in neurobiology. In addition to focusing on the very demanding curriculum, she also captained the cross country team and was a member of the track and field team for four years. Dr. Irvine then went on to complete her medical studies at Harvard Medical School. During those four years, she served on the admissions committee, volunteered to provide healthcare to the local homeless population in Cambridge, and participated in clinical research evaluating the delivery of primary care to rural areas in Greece.

    Following her graduation from Harvard Medical School, Dr. Irvine completed a rigorous five-year residency program in head and neck surgery at the University of Southern California. Along with performing over 2000 surgeries during that time, she was appointed Chief Resident in her final year.

    After residency, Dr. Irvine chose to pursue her surgical passion and specialize in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. She was accepted to one of the most prestigious fellowship programs in the country with Drs. Nassif, Azizzadeh, and Massry in Beverly Hills, California. During this intense program Dr. Irvine participated in over 600 surgical cases learning specialized surgical approaches and techniques that these world renowned surgeons have perfected in their more than 50 years of combined experience.

    Facial plastic surgery allows Dr. Irvine to combine her creativity and love of art and drawing with the uncompromising science of medicine. She is very detail oriented and meticulous in the operating room, always striving to achieve the most desirable aesthetic results for her patients.

    After 6 years of extensive training in Los Angeles, Dr. Irvine is very excited to bring her specialized skill set to the Santa Barbara community.
