Meet Dr. Kochuba
Dr. Andrew Kochuba was born and raised in Mountaintop, PA, affectionately known as Northeastern Pennsylvania. He is the oldest of 3 siblings (brother Matthew is a Trauma Surgeon at the University of Florida and sister Rachel is a NICU nurse in Philadelphia).
Dr. Kochuba prides himself on his patient care and the relationships he forms, especially since he was once a patient. As a teenager, he underwent Plastic Surgery to his face and hand after an accident. It was this misfortune and life changing experience that caused him to pursue a career in Plastic Surgery as well as his relationship with his grandfather, Dr. Joseph Campana, the first doctor in the family.
He is dedicated to providing each patient with the best experience, exceptional care, and achieving the best result possible. Outside of the OR and office, he enjoys spending time with his wife Melissa, his toddler son Gavin, soon to be newborn son, family, and friends. They love traveling, being foodies, mother nature, and just living life to its fullest. He is excited to be back in the DMV and to be a member of the Austin-Weston Center for Cosmetic Surgery team.
Dr. Kochuba is board-certified in plastic surgery by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and board-certified in general surgery by the American Board of Surgery. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. He has published extensively in peer-reviewed plastic surgery journals, especially the Aesthetic Surgery Journal and the Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery Journal.
He is also a reviewer for the Aesthetic Surgery Journal. He has presented at over 50 national and regional meetings in the field of plastic surgery. Dr. Kochuba currently serves on multiple national committees of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), including the Young Plastic Surgeons Forum, the Annual Meeting Educational Program, and the Aesthetic Residency Curriculum Development committees. He is a candidate for membership in the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).
Dr. Kochuba received his medical degree from the Georgetown University School of Medicine in our nation’s capital, Washington, DC. During medical school, he volunteered his time at the Hoya Clinic, Hands-On DC, and DC Central Kitchen. He graduated from medical school in the top ten of his class, Cum Laude, and was elected into Alpha Omega Alpha (the most prestigious medical school honor society).
Dr. Kochuba completed his general surgery residency at Montefiore Medical Center of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in NYC, widely considered one of the busiest hospital systems in the US.
