At Mayo Clinic, he was the previous Chair of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the Medical Director for the Breast Center, and he has served in multiple leadership positions. Dr. TerKonda was appointed by former Florida Governor Rick Scott to the Florida Board of Medicine for multiple terms. He eventually was elected as the Chairman of the Board for the Federation of State Medical Boards.

Throughout his career, Dr. TerKonda has performed more than 6,000 procedures, providing care to patients nationally and internationally. Understanding that plastic surgery is a perfect marriage of art and surgery, Dr. TerKonda focuses on his client’s needs to enhance their natural beauty.
