in 2003 and becoming a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College

The Royal Melbourne, The Royal Children’s, and the Victorian
Plastic Surgery Unit gave him experience in all aspects of plastic
surgery, particularly in reconstructive microsurgery, hand surgery,
skin cancer management, and cosmetic surgery.
Mr Morgan subsequently commenced private practice and was appointed
as a Visiting Consultant Plastic Surgeon at the Peter MacCallum
Cancer Institute, dealing with the effects of all types of early
and advanced skin cancers

Canada in late 2004 to undertake a Clinical Fellowship in Craniofacial
Trauma & Reconstruction in Toronto under the auspices of the
University of Toronto, followed by a further Clinical Fellowship
in Aesthetic & Reconstructive Breast Surgery through the University
of British Columbia in Vancouver.
After nearly two years of overseas study, Mr Morgan returned to

trauma.
He has recommenced private practice with a specific interest in
rhinoplasty and facial cosmetic surgery, breast surgery, and skin
cancer management.
