About Dr Sean Moodley
Meet dr sean moodley
There are many routes to becoming a plastic surgeon, and Dr Sean Moodley has undertaken the most thorough and demanding training process: qualifying in both general surgery and plastic and reconstructive surgery.
Growing up, through to high school, art has been a great love and passion. Whilst I was doing research for a painting on Mother Theresa I came to realise what an impact you can make on people’s lives through medicine and medical care.
I became inspired by her work to study medicine and I moved to Cape Town, where I obtained my undergraduate medical degree from the University of Cape Town.
I returned to Cape Town in 2004 and qualified as a general surgeon at the University of Cape Town in 2008.
After a brief spell working as a consultant general surgeon my true calling emerged and I entered into a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery program at the University of Cape Town in 2009.
I became a fully qualified and Board certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon in 2013.
Plastic and reconstructive surgery allows me to combine my two greatest passions : surgery and art.
Teaching the art of plastic surgery to junior trainees at Groote Schuur is something I currently combine with my private practice and that I love greatly.
At present my main focus is on cosmetic surgery, with my biggest areas of interest: facial and neck rejuvenation, breast surgery, body contouring. Years of practice have taught me beauty is also carried from within. I therefore advocate for a holistic approach of the general wellbeing of a person and I have become increasingly involved in regenerative medicine, specifically stem cell therapy and all its treatment options.
