Get to know Plastic Surgeon Dr. D’Arcy A. Honeycutt, who serves patients in Bismarck, North Dakota.

Dr. Honeycutt has been in private practice at Advanced Surgical Arts Center in Bismarck, North Dakota since 1994. She is one of only a few female plastic surgeons in North Dakota, and as a woman she brings a unique perspective to the practice of cosmetic and breast surgery.

The doctor enjoys a busy breast surgery practice and has a particular interest in facial cosmetic surgery and body contouring. She and her all-female staff have a private and confidential, fully accredited, Class C operating suite that is recognized as an ambulatory surgery center.

With a personable, caring, and understanding approach, they emphasize patient education and preparedness, and they achieve excellent results with this team approach. This is reflected in their 97% patient satisfaction rate.

After graduating from Rice University, Dr. Honeycutt completed medical school and a rigorous general surgery residency at the University of Texas Medical Branch. She then performed original research as a Fellow at the Shriners Burns Institute. She completed her plastic surgery training at the well-respected University of Kentucky where she trained under Dr. Edward Luce, the past president of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. She has completed 13 years of medical school, residency, and research but continues her education by attending seminars to master the latest techniques in cosmetic surgery. 

Subsequent to her education, the doctor attained board certification in plastic surgery through the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS). The mission of the ABPS is to promote safe, ethical, efficacious plastic surgery to the public by maintaining high standards for the education, examination, certification and continuous certification of plastic surgeons as specialists and subspecialists.

Moreover, she is board-certified in general surgery by the American Board of Surgery (ABS). The ABS is an independent, non-profit organization located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, founded for the purpose of certifying surgeons who have met a defined standard of education, training, and knowledge.

A Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a Fellow of the American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery, Dr. Honeycutt maintains memberships with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, the North Dakota Chapter of the American College of Surgeons, the North Dakota Medical Association, and the Association of Women Surgeons.

Active in academia, she is on staff at the University of North Dakota, and has taught medical residents, physical therapy students and surgical technology students. She helped develop the national certifying exam for surgical technologists. She has been active in the local Chamber of Commerce, and has just joined the Bismarck-Mandan YMCA Board of Directors.

Enjoying speaking engagements, Dr. Honeycutt is a former President of a Toastmasters Club. She has achieved the highest rank in Toastmasters International, The Distinguished Toastmaster. Having raised money for her alma mater, Rice University, she coordinates and conducts Rice alumni interviews for high school applicants for the region.

Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done.

On a more personal note, Dr. Honeycutt is happily married to Lee Schwartzmann, of Schwartzmann Trucking, out of Richardton, North Dakota. She was previously married to the late Thomas Spagnolia, a long time Bismarck neurosurgeon, and they had two children. Enjoying the beautiful, wide-open North Dakota landscape, her home overlooks the majestic Missouri River. She enjoys hiking and underwater photography. She completed the 2013 Ironman world championship in Kona, Hawaii – a bucket list dream. She is planning on getting her pilot’s license, and hopes to reactivate the Bismarck Astronomy Club.
