Dr. Campbell has risen to become the \u2018go-to\u2019 plastic surgeon at UVA, with his selfless dedication to providing the most comprehensive array of reconstructive options.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cDr. Campbell is not only an excellent doctor, summed up, he’s an excellent human being.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cHe is the “go-to” for all complicated reconstructive surgery and is a well-respected, well-established mentor in his department and community. He goes above and beyond with every single referral and case, and this is why he is the top referred-to plastic surgeon at UVA.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cHe provides a level of technical care that is, in general, only available in major metropolitan areas like Houston, New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cThough Dr. Campbell has a rigorous clinical schedule, he is continually contemplating research questions that could further benefit his patients. Dr. Campbell puts the patient first, not only his current patients, but he is always thinking about how to improve patient care as his practice evolves.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cI would refer any one of my friends and family members to him and trust they will be treated with state of the art techniques and impeccable operative judgement.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cAfter twenty years of service, he has taken care of scores of our faculty and their family members. He has been the Head Team Physician for UVA Athletics and as such, has been instrumental in bringing athletes back to their full potential.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cWe are lucky to have him here at UVA.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cDr. Diduch is truly a master clinician and is the \u2018go to\u2019 physician when members of his department or their families need knee and shoulder care.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cA huge number of our faculty like me have him care for family members, neighbors, and friends on a regular basis. He has cared for several of our faculty members, family members, and staff.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cHe is a talented and caring provider whether he is treating a college or professional athlete, a department family member, or just an average member of the community who is under his care.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cI will definitely use him as my family surgeon. He is the best!\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n \u201cI assure you that there is no other surgeon at UVA who has operated on more faculty than Dr. Diduch. He has operated on me, my wife, my mother-in-law, and at least half the faculty in my department. He has operated on hundreds of our UVa and local high school athletes.\u201d \u2013 Colleague<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Master Clinician Award recognizes up to two UVA physicians with the reputation of being the \u201cdoctors\u2019 doctor;\u201d the physicians to whom their colleagues turn to assist in managing complicated patients, care for family members, or serve as their personal physician.
