Joshua Fosnot is currently a Chief Resident in the Plastic Surgery Residency Program at the University of Pennsylvania. Prior to his plastic surgery training, he completed a general surgery residency at the University of Pennsylvania and is certified by the American Board of Surgery.  He also completed a one year clinical research fellowship primarily studying outcomes of autologous breast reconstruction. He has a broad range of interests and is planning on an academic career in plastic surgery.  His practice interests include general reconstructive and cosmetic surgical procedures.
