Dr. Aaron Berger is a pediatric plastic surgeon specializing in hand surgery, within the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. He earned his medical degree and a doctorate in experimental pathology through the Medical Scientist Training Program at Yale University. Dr. Berger then completed residency training in plastic surgery at Stanford University Medical Center, followed by a fellowship in hand surgery and microsurgery at UCLA Medical Center. He was selected as the first recipient of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand’s International Hand Surgery Fellowship, where he trained at centers of excellence in China for the treatment of brachial plexus and other peripheral nerve injuries, complex extremity trauma and congenital differences of the upper extremity.

Dr. Berger has been trained in all aspects of plastic surgery, and his main surgical interests are in reconstructive surgery of the hand and extremities, including microsurgical reconstruction. His clinical practice is dedicated to the treatment of congenital hand and arm differences, brachial plexus injuries and reconstructive plastic surgery. His primary research interests are currently focused on determining optimal treatment pathways for brachial plexus birth injuries and congenital differences of the upper limb. Dr. Berger works in partnership with a multidisciplinary team at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital and its network of outpatient centers to provide evaluation and care of patients with congenital hand/arm differences, brachial plexus injuries, finger/hand amputations, tendon/nerve injuries, burn injuries, post-oncologic deformities and trauma-related injuries, including fractures/dislocations of the hand and wrist. He also serves as medical director of Nicklaus Children’s Pediatric Specialists’s Wound Care Program.

Dr. Berger is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery with sub-specialty certification in hand surgery. He is a member of the American Association for Hand Surgery and American Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery. His work has been published in multiple peer-reviewed journals and he has authored chapters for several medical textbooks.

Dr. Berger is employed by Nicklaus Children’s Pediatric Specialists, the physician-led multispecialty group practice of Nicklaus Children’s Health System.
