It was in Colorado where Dr. Misch realized her passion for Facial Plastic Surgery.
After residency, she completed a prestigious American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery accredited fellowship with Dr. Andrew Jacono in Manhattan, NY.

When not seeing patients, Dr. Misch enjoys basking in the sunshine of Colorado through hiking, cycling, and skiing (with ample sunscreen, of course). She also enjoys traveling, exploring the local Denver food scene, and spending time with her adorable niece.
Dr. Misch is excited to return to Denver and bring her unique, advanced surgical skills to the people of Colorado.
