Elite Education & Experience
Raised in New York by two English professors, Dr. Wolfe was taught the value of academic excellence from an early age. He attended Cornell University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology. While learning about the inner workings of the human mind, he found himself gravitating toward the physiological side of medicine.
He attended medical school at the Chicago Medical School/Finch University of Health Sciences (now known as Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science), where he engaged in a rigorous course of study that included graduate work in pathology and a master’s degree in wound healing.
Dr. Wolfe chose plastic surgery—or, in his words, it chose him—largely because of its diverse nature, which allowed him to apply his surgical skills to a variety of procedures. After receiving his medical degree, he entered Georgetown University’s prestigious 6-year integrated program in plastic surgery.
This residency program, which offered a rare opportunity to focus specifically on plastic surgery, allowed him to develop his craft under the tutelage of some of the most respected surgeons in the field and publish extensively on cosmetic surgery. During this period, Dr. Wolfe was inducted into the National Medical Honor Society and Alpha Omega Alpha and received numerous other accolades, including a scholarship from the American Society of Clinical Pathologists.

A Vibrant Professional Life
Dr. Wolfe is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and holds memberships in several prestigious professional societies, including the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and The Aesthetic Society (formerly ASAPS). He has presented his research internationally and published his findings on topics such as breast reconstruction, breast reduction, oculoplastic surgery, thoracic surgery, and wound healing.
In addition, Dr. Wolfe has traveled abroad for humanitarian projects, most notably through Operation Luz de Sol. This week-long trip to La Ramona in the Dominican Republic allowed Dr. Wolfe to perform life-changing cleft lip and burn reconstruction procedures for underserved populations.
Investigator, Thought Leader, and Industry Consultant
As a self-professed “implant geek,” Dr. Wolfe is widely recognized for his expertise in breast enhancement. He is a consultant for some of the largest breast implant manufacturers, including Allergan®, Sientra®, Mentor®, and Motiva®. In this capacity, Dr. Wolfe stays at the forefront of new and evolving technologies while advising the manufacturers on how to better serve breast implant patients in the future.
Dr. Wolfe’s professional involvement with these companies has spanned a variety of roles, from teaching clinical courses for Mentor to lecturing internationally through The Allergan Academy and being a keynote speaker for Sientra. He was also invited to be an investigator for the Natrelle 410 Anatomic Implant Study and the Motiva Implant Clinical Trial. As part of his educational partnership with Motiva, Dr. Wolfe has lectured and performed live surgery in Costa Rica. He is a co-author of the initial journal publication establishing the safety and efficacy of Motiva breast implants.
Given the time and money invested in seeking FDA clearance for new breast implants, only the most experienced, technically proficient, and organized plastic surgeons are selected to serve as investigators. In both clinical trials, Dr. Wolfe’s broad experience with all breast implant types and knowledge of best practices in augmentation and implant revision led to successful outcomes for his patients and invaluable insights for the implant manufacturers.
Special Clinical Interests
Over the last 2 decades, Dr. Wolfe has distinguished himself as an exceptional plastic surgeon for the face, breast, and body. He was the first surgeon in Denver to champion the mini facelift and has performed thousands of these short-scar procedures with incredibly natural-looking results.
