With dozens of peer-reviewed articles, book chapters and other publications to his name, Dr. Singh is an expert and national leader in his specialty. His recent publications in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and International Wound Journal cover topics such as the latest techniques for breast reconstruction as well as the benefits of closed incision negative pressure dressings. His research helps improve outcomes for patients, both functionally and aesthetically. He has also served as a peer reviewer for numerous journals, including the Journal of the American College of Surgery and Nature – Scientific Reports.
Dr. Singh has given hundreds of lectures and presentations locally, across the country, and internationally, furthering the knowledge and skills of plastic surgeons world-wide.

My surgical and recovery experience with Dr. Singh was excellent. He guided me through every step, made sure I knew what to expect, and checked on my progress throughout. My results are better than I hoped, and I have complete confidence in him as a surgeon. I am lucky to have him on my surgical team. Highly recommend.

The University of Miami Hospital (UMH) is a "Blessing" in this area. Look no further if you are seeking for a Reconstruction/Oncology plastic surgeon plus other health expertise solutions. Cleveland Clinic, Weston, FL advised me to contact UMH to continue and complete my surgical procedure due to a shortage of surgical physicians. I did, and, shortly after UMH responded. To my great favor, Dr. Devinder Singh MD Chief, Professor, & Program Director Plastic Surgery at University of Miami office called to scheduled an appointment. Dr. Singh gained my trust as the general surgical procedure started and the outcome of each step was performed by him and his team with superb assistance services, and commitment for excellence. Today, my procedure is complete exceeding my expectations. I am very grateful to Dr. Devinder Singh MD Chief, Professor, & Program Director Plastic Surgery at University of Miami, UMH, and all the staff, who gave me empathic support, and consistent proficiency. Again, seek no further and call UMH for your healthcare
