A typical day in my life includes… my day is like no other. I have the opportunity to be a plastic surgeon, a businessman, a teacher, a coach and mentor. I feel honored that patients trust me with their care and allow me to be a part of a very personal
journey and transformation. I am part of a specialty that allows me to feed my desire to build and create businesses and
teams of people that can help others. I enjoy both the clinical and surgical sides of being a plastic surgeon, as well as the
ability to educate people on our specialty and the specific plan that will achieve their goals as a patient. The business of aesthetics is exciting and it is amazing to be in a place where I can help set the standard for excellence in our trade.
My family is… the strongest pillar in my life and really is the foundation of who I am as a person. My wife is my best friend
and biggest supporter as we continue to experience life. My parents have been the foundation for me as I have grown up
and have encouraged me to find joy wherever my life leads me. I am fortunate to have my parents live close (Mesa) so that we can be with them as often as our busy schedules allow. My brother lives in Seattle and although I do not get to see him
as often, he also is a strong factor in my life and I admire him tremendously.
If I could have dinner with anyone it would be… me on my 80th birthday. I would ask myself advice about what is really important to worry about versus all the little things that I worry about daily that really don’t make a bit of difference for the future.
One thing I cannot live without is… music. I listen to music at home, in the car, in the operating room, golfing, etc.
I am inspired by… people that are positive, open-minded, generous, and goal focused, while squeezing every drop of
enjoyment out of each day.
My first job was… as a paper delivery boy for the local town newspaper in Albany, Oregon.
Always… show gratitude and humility.
Never… be quick to judge and criticize.

Dr. Bryan Gawley, Notable Arizona
Plastic Surgeon, Recognized by
Phoenix Magazine PHOENIX, AZ March 2016 – Phoenix Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Bryan Gawley, has been nominated by PHOENIX Magazine as a Top Doctor in their 2016 issue. Gawley Plastic Surgery Center has proudly accepted Dr. Gawley’s nominations for seven consecutive
years (2010-2016). Dr. Gawley is the founder of Gawley Plastic Surgery Center, a premier plastic surgery practice in Scottsdale
and Phoenix. Top Doc is determined by surveying medical
professionals in the Phoenix area, asking peers to nominate board certified physicians who are experts in their field. PHOENIX
Magazine published its first list of the Valley’s Best Doctors in 1995. Twenty years and 2,457 peer-selected physicians later, Top Docs
is the most popular issue – a trusted and venerable resource
for local medical care.
Dr. Bryan Gawley is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgeons, and is a specialist in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the breast, body and face. He completed a five-year accredited plastic surgery residency at the University of Texas, Galveston, and is Chief of Plastic Surgery at the HonorHealth Scottsdale Shea Medical Center. His patients receive outstanding
patient care with the latest surgical techniques. An elegant surgical
experience is provided at his surgery center, one of the only
Medicare and AAASF accredited centers specializing in breast
reconstruction and plastic surgery. MD Skin Lounge®, his new state-of-the-art MedSpa Center, provides quality skin care and the most current aesthetic and non-invasive services, including
injectables, Ultherapy®, CoolSculpting®, Cellfina™, I.V. Drip Therapies and the full spectrum of skin rejuvenating laser treatments.
Changing LivesIn addition to his talents as a cosmetic surgeon,
Dr. Gawley also has a passion for performing
breast reconstruction for cancer patients whose
physiques have been altered by mastectomy.
Renewing a patient’s self-esteem and body
image after breast cancer is an invaluable
service, one he is proud to offer.
In his ongoing effort to provide the highest quality of care, Dr. Gawley opened North Scottsdale Outpatient Surgery Center.
This fully accredited surgical facility boasts the latest technology in a spa-like environment. Opened in fall 2009, NSOSC has received impeccable reviews from the most discriminating
cosmetic patient to the recently diagnosed
breast cancer patient.
It means a lot to Dr. Gawley that his patients
entrust him with such profound tasks, and in turn, he gives the best of himself – and the
benefit of his extensive education – to each person who seeks his help. To Dr. Gawley, it’s not just business as usual; it’s the art of
changing lives.

Dr. Gawley’s passion for breast reconstruction continued as he worked closely with Dr. Linda Liu. He was introduced to a local foundation that was equally passionate about providing a quality of life to patients
called Don’t Be A Chump! Check For A Lump!. The Foundation works to educate the community on breast cancer awareness and provides
direct assistance to breast cancer patients with their wig program.
Dream TeamFor most patients, a diagnosis of breast cancer often comes with
significant concern over the possible loss or deformity of the breast. However, many patients are unaware of the advances that have
been made in the field of breast reconstruction. In most cases,
Dr. Gawley can reconstruct a woman’s breast following mastectomy
or lumpectomy with outstanding, natural results. Dr. Gawley
understands that improving self-image and sense of wholeness are
equally important and an integral part of the treatment and recovery
from breast cancer. In short, recovery from breast cancer treatment
no longer means living without breasts.“Aesthetic concerns should not be an
afterthought in breast cancer surgery. By working
with Dr. Gawley in a team approach from the
onset, we can identify potential cosmetic
problems with the surgery and prevent them
and often enhance the patient’s appearance.
Dr. Gawley is an innovator who brings his
skilled aesthetic techniques to cancer surgery
for superior results.” - Linda Liu, M.D.
“Choosing the right surgery when faced with
breast cancer is one of the most difficult
decisions a woman will have to make. Dr. Gawley
and I have worked together for over 10 years,
offering advanced reconstructive techniques
following cancer surgery. His caring attitude and
cosmetic outcomes have made him one of the
most sought out plastic reconstructive surgeons
in the Valley.” -Lise Walker, M.D.
Dr. Linda Liu and Dr. Lise Walker are top
surgeons specializing in breast health in
Phoenix, Arizona.

Hi! I’m Holly Rose, the founder of the local non-profit Don’t be a
Chump! Check for a Lump! I.R.S. 27-4626148. Our mission is to make a difference in the fight against breast cancer through education, prevention and direct assistance with free wigs and free mammograms.
I founded our non-profit after going through breast cancer at the age of 39. In sharing my personal experience, I quickly realized women were neglecting their breast health, and the majority of women, from
the CEO, to the teacher, to the waitress, were uneducated on the facts
regarding breast cancer and tips for prevention. I also discovered
another gap in our community. Women going through breast cancer
were going without wigs due to lack of funds.
Losing my hair was one of the most devastating side effects of my chemotherapy. It had nothing to do with vanity. It was the fact that my
youngest daughter would not hug me if I wasn’t wearing a wig. I just
didn’t look like mommy any longer. I looked like the face of cancer and I scared her. I was very fortunate that I could walk into a wig shop and pick out a beautiful wig that looked exactly like me, like mommy. Unfortunately, most insurance companies do not cover the cost of a wig.
While going through breast cancer I was showered with so many acts
of kindness. It was life changing for me. I wanted to give back, and so
I founded Don’t be a Chump! Check for a Lump! to make a difference in the fight against breast cancer through education, prevention and direct assistance.
