About Dr. Shankaran

Board-certified plastic surgeon and breast reconstruction specialist

As a board-certified plastic surgeon, I am excited to bring my experience and skills to Canada and to serve the people of Saskatchewan to the best of my abilities.

I perform reconstructive and aesthetic surgeries and enjoy a practice that allows me to practice in both areas. As a breast reconstruction specialist, my primary interest is helping women following mastectomy. Seeing patients go from a mastectomy wound to a successful breast reconstruction is incredibly gratifying, and I feel privileged to be trusted by women facing such a difficult time.

I am thrilled to be here in Saskatoon, and I look forward to sharing my expertise in plastic surgery and breast reconstruction with the residents of this great city and province.

Experience and education

I am board-certified in General Surgery and Plastic Surgery (through the American Board of Plastic Surgery) and completed my general surgery and plastic surgery residencies in the US. I have experience in both private and academic practices. My professional memberships include the following:

  • Saskatchewan Medical Association

  • Canadian Medical Association

  • American Society of Plastic Surgeons

  • American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgeons

  • American Council of Academic Plastic Surgeons

  • Fellow of the American College of Surgeons
