WVU Medicine Plastic Surgery recently celebrated the opening of its new office at 60 Maclaine Way in Shepherdstown, marking a significant investment in local healthcare. The transition from Martinsburg to Shepherdstown allows residents from nearby towns like Charles Town and Harpers Ferry to access expert plastic surgery services closer to home. Dr. Jack Gelman, a seasoned plastic surgeon, will lead the practice along with physician assistant Sarah Cross, ensuring that both surgical and nonsurgical procedures from the former location will be available in a calming, patient-focused environment. This move underscores a commitment to meeting the health needs of the community as noted by WVU Hospitals East President and CEO Mark O'Hern. The Shepherdstown Chronicle published this coverage of the ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by local leaders, highlighting the vital role this service will play in the region.
