Board-certified plastic surgeon
Y. Anthony
Nakamura, M.D.
A surgeon’s precision. An artist’s understanding of proportion. A deeply personal approach to care.

A life grounded in
family & community.
With more than 36 years of experience in plastic surgery and more than 25,000 successful surgeries performed, Dr. Yuki Nakamura brings decades of expertise, artistry, and dedication to every patient he serves. His philosophy is simple: plastic surgery is about enhancing what is already beautiful and helping each patient feel confident and comfortable in their own skin.
When Dr. Nakamura isn’t in the operating room, you’ll often find him doing the things he enjoys most outside of medicine—cooking, snowboarding, and playing golf. These hobbies give him the opportunity to relax, recharge, and enjoy time away from his demanding career.
But above all else, Dr. Nakamura is most proud of his family. His greatest priority is his beautiful wife of 39 years, Tammy Nakamura, and their two children, Natalia and Nico. Family is at the heart of who he is, and he considers watching his children grow into confident, responsible adults to be one of life’s greatest rewards.
With his characteristic sense of humor, Dr. Nakamura loves that Natalia and Nico have become happy, successful—and, of course, responsible taxpayers!
For Dr. Nakamura, life is about more than his work in plastic surgery. It’s about family, enjoying the journey, and making a meaningful difference in the lives of his patients. After more than three decades in practice, his greatest reward remains helping people look and feel beautiful in their own skin.
