Info needed on Plastic Surgeon Dr. Aly of Iowa City, Iowa

Does anyone have any experience with Dr. Aly of Iowa City, Iowa? I would appreciate your info. Thanks so much! Robyn

It is my understanding that he is no longer associated with the U of I Hospitals & Clinics. ~~Sherry E.D.D. of Alexis Leigh-Ann (or) Ian Connor~~11/11/05

Hi Sherry! Thanks for the info. My Dad's surgeon friend referred me to him. Of course, I reminded my Dad that California is on the Left Coast and Iowa is waaaay over there. Do you know where Dr. Aly is now practicing? Robyn

I believe he's still in Iowa City, but in his own group. You can do a search on the internet -- I'm pretty sure he's there. Janie

Thank you! Robyn

I am also considering going to see him also. Here is his website: http://www.icplasticsurgery.com/index.html and his phone is 319-337-3740. Let me know what your impression is if you see him. Everything that I have read about him is excellent. Barb
