Patrick Maxwell.

As one of a limited number of plastic surgeons in New York City, Dr. Afridi is specifically interested in women's health issues as they relate to plastic surgery. She is keenly aware of the needs of young moms who want to experience the joys of family but keep their pre-baby physiques. Therefore, Dr. Afridi has established a particular interest, and is specializing, in post-maternity body reshaping.
