Background

Dr. Kachare

I’m from Upstate New York, where I completed my undergraduate and medical degrees at the University at Buffalo. I moved to Greenville, NC, for a General Surgery residency.  During these training years, plastic surgery became a passion, and I sought additional training, which took me to Louisville, KY, and Boston, MA. I began my clinical practice at ECU Health, where I trained and mentored medical students and surgical residents. After a few years, I desired the challenge of private practice along with the opportunity to apply my training and passion for cosmetic surgery. 

Along the way, I met my wife, who is also a surgeon, and we have welcomed two children. We have enjoyed watching Greenville expand and grow while maintaining its close-knit community feel.

Education

As a native of upstate New York, I stayed close to home at the University at Buffalo and completed a B.S. in biology and a B.A. in psychology.  I then attended medical school at the University of Buffalo and stayed an additional year, earning an M.B.A. I then moved to Greenville for a general surgery residency and completed a research fellowship in surgical oncology. Afterwards, I moved to Louisville, KY, for a plastic surgery fellowship where I had the opportunity to learn under the mentorship of nationally recognized cosmetic plastic surgeons. Additional training took me to Boston, MA, where I completed a one-year fellowship in hand surgery at Harvard Medical School/Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and a one-year fellowship in facial Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery at Harvard Medical School/Massachusetts General Hospital

After over a decade of training, I returned to Greenville as an adjunct faculty member with ECU Health. 

The journey so far has been humbling and rich with wonderful patients and mentors. I look forward to continuing to serve the Eastern North Carolina region.
