A Mississippi Surgeon, Home to Serve Mississippi

Dr. Katie W. Brown was born and raised in Mississippi, and her path to plastic surgery has stayed close to home at every step. She joins Plastic Surgery Associates of Mississippi with residency training in plastic surgery and an additional fellowship year focused on hand and upper-extremity care, giving patients in Jackson, Flowood, Forest, and McComb access to a surgeon trained in a full range of reconstructive and aesthetic procedures.

Why Choose Dr. Brown at Plastic Surgery Associates of Mississippi?

Dr. Brown joins a practice built on more than 25 years of shared surgical experience in the Jackson metropolitan area, delivered through a boutique, physician-led model. All the senior surgeons on the team are board certified, and Dr. Brown is actively pursuing board certification following the completion of her residency and fellowship training.

Here, we intentionally see fewer patients than in a large-group setting, allowing more time with each surgeon at every visit. With Dr. Brown's addition, our practice now offers even broader coverage across facial, breast, body, and hand procedures, all within a single, physician-led team. Our patients in Jackson and beyond gain access to her training alongside our practice's long-standing reputation for board-certified expertise and individualized care.
