He realizes that each person is unique and has their own personal concerns and goals and that is why he works closely with them to tailor each procedure to meet their individual needs.

A native of the Cleveland area, Dr. Fedele attended St. Joseph High School in Cleveland where he played varsity football, pole-vaulted, and was captain of the track team. He went on to major in pre-medicine at The University of Dayton, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and Chemistry. He attended The University of Cincinnati College of Medicine where his interest in plastic and reconstructive surgery began to grow. 

Dr. Fedele returned to the Cleveland area for his five years of general surgery training at Case Western Reserve University, University Hospitals of Cleveland. He then went to The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, one of the top plastic surgery training centers in the country, for his plastic and reconstructive surgery training.

An accomplished artist, Dr. Fedele attended the Cooper School of Art in Cleveland and took anatomical drawing and figuring drawing classes at the University of Dayton. He is a medical illustrator with over 100 illustrations published in medical textbooks and scientific journals articles. 

“I feel that an artist has a unique perspective and can better visualize how a procedure will enhance a person’s appearance. The human body is already a beautiful work of art and plastic surgery only enhances that beauty. I have the skills of a trained surgeon, but see things with the eyes of an artist. That is why I feel that plastic surgery is an art, and who better to perform plastic surgery than an artist” expressed Dr. Fedele.

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.

Outside of practicing medicine, Dr. Fedele enjoys playing the drums with his band “The Retractors.”
