Rhinoplasty intrigues me because of its inherent degree of difficulty. To be extraordinary, you must develop a keen aesthetic eye, a deep understanding of anatomy, and incredible technical proficiency. You must also commit to it as a specialty because rhinoplasty is challenging to do well if you are not doing it all the time.

Education & Training
Dr. Cochran earned his medical degree from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, where he graduated with honor. His interest in rhinoplasty led him to pursue a career as a nasal surgeon and rhinoplasty specialist, training at the world-renowned University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. During his residency, he served as Chief Resident of the Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery (ENT). Dr. Cochran continues to teach rhinoplasty techniques to other surgeons as a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, as well as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Plastic Surgery at UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas.
As part of his training, Dr. Cochran studied the art and science of rhinoplasty directly under esteemed nasal surgeon Jack P. Gunter, MD, observing and assisting him in surgery. Dr. Gunter was impressed with Dr. Cochran’s talent and enthusiasm for rhinoplasty and later asked Dr. Cochran to join his practice. When Dr. Gunter retired in 2014, he entrusted Dr. Cochran to continue his practice.
My patients truly benefit from all I have learned from Dr. Gunter. His meticulous attention to detail is remarkable. Having worked beside him for 10 years made me a better doctor.

Patient Care Philosophy
Dr. Cochran believes in giving every patient the luxury of time. During each in-person consultation, he carefully explains what can can be expected before, during, and after surgery. Because each individual possesses unique facial characteristics, Dr. Cochran designs a specific surgery for every patient. “The nose should never detract from the face or become a focal point. It is a unique operation every time.”
Striking the perfect balance between meeting a patient’s aesthetic goals and correcting a functional problem is very important—a great looking nose must also work well. I never settle for anything less than my personal best. This is the only thing I do, and it will be done right.
