About

The Coronado Plastic Surgery Center occupies 131 Orange Avenue on Coronado Island, where American Board of Plastic Surgery-certified surgeon William M. Shuffett, MD, FACS operates an AAAHC-accredited on-site surgical suite blocks from Hotel Del Coronado. A University of Kentucky College of Medicine graduate and Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society inductee, the surgeon completed general surgery residency at Wake Forest University and plastic surgery residency at UC Davis, bringing over 25 years of referral-built practice to Orange Avenue's 92118 medical corridor alongside post-procedure skin recovery programs at Lavender Flower Day Spa. The practice holds active surgical staff privileges at Sharp Coronado Hospital and American Society of Plastic Surgeons membership, covering aesthetic procedures — breast augmentation, facelift, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, abdominoplasty, and liposuction — plus reconstructive cases for post-cancer and post-trauma patients. Blepharoplasty patients requiring concurrent ophthalmologic evaluation coordinate pre-operative clearance through island eye care providers including Alvarado Eye Coronado for visual field testing before upper-lid skin excision. The center's most technically demanding procedures include deep-plane facelift with SMAS plication, circumferential body lift following massive weight loss, and autologous fat transfer using Coleman centrifugation at 3,000 RPM for three minutes to isolate viable adipocytes.
