Independent Plastic & Reconstructive Surg Groups in Alabama
A vetted list of 27 plastic & reconstructive surg practices in Alabama that are still owned by the physicians who built them. Useful when the recruiter says you have no other options.
Years one through fifteen had structure. A curriculum. A rotation block. An attending who knew what came next and told you. You trusted the structure because the structure had never failed.
A hospital recruiter's quiet superpower is that you do not know what else is around. They are counting on you not knowing. This directory takes that superpower away. The Real Contract course walks you through every clause that matters.

About this directory and the Alabama plastic & reconstructive surg market
The training years were structured. The first contract is not.
Then PGY-Final hits, and the page is blank. A recruiter calls. A contract lands in your inbox with a 50-mile non-compete, an opaque productivity model, and a signing bonus you do not understand the strings on.
Nobody is telling you what other plastic & reconstructive surg practices exist in Alabama, what the contract really says, or which lawyer to call. The senior people in your program signed without reading because they had no guide either. This directory is the first page of the map.
What other resources point to in Alabama
I built this directory by starting with the NPPES NPI Registry, the federal database where every medical practice in the country has to register. From there, I filtered Alabama's plastic & reconstructive surg listings down to practices that are genuinely physician-owned. That means no hospital-employed roles, no academic faculty positions, no corporate-acquired clinics. What you're looking at is 27 independent plastic & reconstructive surg practices across 9 cities in Alabama.
The reason this matters is that job boards don't distinguish between an independent plastic & reconstructive surg practice and a corporate medical group. They list them side by side, identical formatting, identical apply buttons. But the compensation model, the call schedule, the equity path, and the long-term upside are completely different depending on who owns the practice. This page separates the two. You can work through the list, contact practices directly, and skip the recruiter entirely.

Frequently asked questions about plastic & reconstructive surg in Alabama
How many Plastic & Reconstructive Surg private practices are in Alabama?
There are 23 physician-owned plastic & reconstructive surg private practices in Alabama, verified against the NPPES NPI Registry. All are independently operated. Hospital-employed, government, corporate, and academic positions are excluded.
What does physician-owned mean?
A physician-owned practice is one where licensed physicians hold controlling ownership of the business entity. This is distinct from hospital employment, corporate medical groups, or private equity-backed practices where non-physician entities control the business.
What does the Corporate-Acquired or MSO-Affiliated flag mean?
The Corporate-Acquired flag means the practice was historically physician-owned but has since been acquired by a corporate entity such as Optum. The MSO-Affiliated flag means the practice uses a Management Services Organization for billing and administration while physicians retain practice-level ownership.
In-Office Surgical Suite Ownership in Alabama Plastic Surgery
Alabama's physician-owned plastic & reconstructive surg practices include Birmingham Plastic Surgery (Birmingham), Mobile Plastic Surgery (Mobile), and Davis Plastic Surgery (Huntsville).
What is an NPPES-verified practice?
NPPES is the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System, a federal database maintained by CMS. Every practice in this directory has an active NPI record in NPPES, confirming it is a registered U.S. medical practice.
Do plastic surgeons in Alabama need a licensed ASC to perform cosmetic procedures in an in-office suite?
It depends on the procedures and state regulations. In Alabama, in-office surgical suites performing procedures under general anesthesia or deep sedation typically require state licensure as an office-based surgical facility. Procedures under local anesthesia only (with or without oral sedation) may have lighter oversight requirements. CMS certification is required only if the facility bills Medicare, cash-pay cosmetic practices may not need Medicare certification. Confirm Alabama-specific office-based surgery facility requirements with a healthcare attorney before opening a surgical suite.

Key Terms in Physician Contracts
NPI (National Provider Identifier)
A unique 10-digit number assigned to every U.S. healthcare provider and organization by CMS. Individual physicians receive a Type 1 NPI; practice entities receive a Type 2 NPI. The NPI is used across all payers for billing and credentialing.
Restrictive Covenant
Any contractual clause that limits a physician's professional activities after leaving an employer. Non-compete clauses are the most common restrictive covenant, but the category also includes non-solicitation clauses (prohibiting contact with former patients or staff) and non-disparagement clauses.
Fair Market Value
The price at which a willing buyer and willing seller would agree to transact, with both parties having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts. Physician compensation must meet fair market value to comply with federal anti-kickback and Stark Law requirements. Independent valuations are used for buy-in pricing, compensation benchmarking, and practice sales.
Collections-Based Compensation
A pay model in which a physician's income is tied directly to the revenue collected from their patient encounters. The physician typically receives a percentage of collections (40 to 55 percent is common) after overhead. This model rewards high-volume, high-acuity work but creates income variability.
Malpractice Insurance
Professional liability coverage that protects physicians against claims of medical negligence. Two main types exist: claims-made (covers claims only if both the incident and filing occur during the active policy) and occurrence-based (covers any incident during the policy period, regardless of when the claim is filed). Premium costs vary dramatically by specialty and state.
In-Office Surgical Suite
A procedure room or fully equipped operating room within a physician's office building used to perform surgeries under local or general anesthesia. Subject to state office-based surgery regulations and accreditation requirements (AAAHC, AAASF, or JCAHO). May not require CMS certification if exclusively serving cash-pay patients.
Cosmetic vs. Reconstructive Surgery
Cosmetic surgery is performed to improve appearance in a patient without a medical condition and is not covered by insurance, patients pay directly. Reconstructive surgery corrects defects caused by trauma, disease, or birth defect and is covered by insurance. The mix of cosmetic vs. reconstructive work in a practice determines its cash-pay revenue fraction.
