Lawrence Bass, MD, FACS, has been named a 2026 Castle Connolly Top Doctor, marking the tenth consecutive year he has received this designation. Only 7 percent of the nation’s licensed physicians are selected each year as Castle Connolly Top Doctors for their specialties in their regions.
Dr. Bass, a board-certified plastic surgeon with Bass Plastic Surgery, PLLC, operates a Park Avenue practice known for personalized aesthetic treatments focused on natural, enduring results. His patient care approach emphasizes detailed pre-surgical planning and advanced surgical techniques to achieve transformative yet balanced outcomes, supported by dedicated post-operative management.
‘Being recognized as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor means so much to me because of the vetting and colleague recognition that is required to achieve this designation as a physician at the top of your field,’ said Dr. Bass. The selection process involves nominations by peer physicians and evaluation by Castle Connolly’s physician-led research team based on medical education, training, hospital appointments, and disciplinary histories. Doctors cannot pay to be selected.
Bass Plastic Surgery specializes in facial rejuvenation procedures including deep plane and mini-facelifts, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), and minimally invasive brow lifts. Dr. Bass is also an internationally recognized researcher and educator with particular interest in advanced aesthetic technologies, having contributed to FDA approval trials for numerous sought-after devices.
His educational background includes a medical degree from Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons, residencies in general surgery at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center and plastic surgery at NYU Medical Center’s Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery, and a research fellowship in microsurgery at New York University Medical Center. He currently serves as Clinical Assistant Professor of Plastic Surgery at the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.
