About Karen Singer, MD
Dr. Karen Singer earned her undergraduate degree at Harvard University, graduating Magna Cum Laude with Highest Honors. After earning her MD at Harvard Medical School, she received training in general surgery in New York City at Roosevelt Hospital and at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, New Jersey. Dr. Singer remained at St. Barnabas an additional two years to complete specialized training in plastic surgery. She pursued her interest in hand surgery after being selected for a one-year fellowship at the University of Colorado Health Sciences in Denver. Dr. Singer is a member of an elite group of Bay Area physicians to have completed such a fellowship. She has been in practice in St. Petersburg, Pinellas Park and Seminole since 1984. Dr. Singer combines this formal training with an eye for proportion, design, color match, form and symmetry, whether making noticeable changes or subtle refinements to her patients’ appearance. While many cosmetic surgeons are certified by other boards that are not specifically related to plastic surgery, Dr. Singer is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
