Dr. James Apesos – Plastic Surgery in Dayton, Ohio – Experience Counts
For more than three decades, Dr. Apesos has helped patients look and feel their best. His reputation is built on trust, experience, and an unwavering commitment to exceptional outcomes.
From your very first consultation, you are encouraged to ask questions, express concerns, and fully understand your options.
Every appointment—from consultation through recovery—is personally conducted by Dr. James Apesos. Your care is never handed off to a nurse practitioner or physician assistant. Every patient has Dr. Apesos’ personal cell phone number and is encouraged to call with questions or concerns after surgery. You are never left wondering if what you’re experiencing is “normal.” Care is never rushed, never delegated, and never impersonal. Excellent surgical care doesn’t end when the procedure is complete—it continues through recovery and long-term follow-up care.
Today’s plastic surgery landscape is crowded, and not all credentials are equal. Legally, any physician may call themselves a “plastic surgeon” or “cosmetic surgeon,” even without specialized training. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) is the only board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties. Dr. James Apesos is board-certified by the ASPS, reflecting years of rigorous, highly specialized training and a lifelong commitment to safety, ethics, and excellence. This distinction matters—because you deserve nothing less.
Housed within a unique Frank Lloyd Wright–designed medical pavilion, Dr. James Apesos’ practice reflects a shared philosophy of harmony, function, and beauty. Wright believed that great design should be organic—guided by balance rather than excess––every choice intentional, serving both form and function. That same philosophy guides Dr. Apesos’ work. It is fitting that a practice devoted to precision, intention, and harmony resides in a space designed by one of the world’s greatest champions of those very ideals.

Many procedures can be performed under local anesthesia in our fully equipped, in-office operating suite. More complex procedures requiring general anesthesia are performed at an accredited outpatient surgery center with overnight stay availability.
