Bio

Dr. Jason D. Bloom is an award winning, Ivy-League trained facial plastic reconstructive surgeon. Dr. Bloom has worked at some of the most elite and renowned institutions in the country. His extensive experience and reputable training provide the foundation for his excellent technical skills and surgical aesthetic. He is dedicated to the treatment of patients with both cosmetic concerns and reconstructive problems of the head and neck. After growing up in Michigan, Dr. Bloom completed his undergraduate B.S. degree with high distinction in Biopsychology Cognitive Sciences at the University of Michigan. He then attended the University of Michigan Medical School, a top ten rated medical school, where he received various awards and honors for his academic and clinical achievements, including the Alfred Barrett Neuroscience Award and the Dean’s Commendation for Excellence in Clinical Skills and the Art of Medicine. Dr. Bloom graduated from medical school Cum Laude and earned admission into the prestigious and elite medical honor society, Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA), as one of the very top students in his class. Dr. Bloom completed his residency training in Otorhinolaryngology: Head Neck Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania consistently regarded as one of the top 5 programs in the country, with excellent specialized training in facial plastic surgery. During his residency, Dr. Bloom worked with many facial plastic surgeons in the greater Philadelphia area and was named Chief Resident. In addition to completing numerous research projects, book chapters, journal articles, lectures and presentations in the area of facial plastic reconstructive surgery, Dr. Bloom continued to be formally recognized for his achievements and received the prestigious Dr. Paul Carniol Prize for Excellence in Facial Plastic Surgery Research, an American Academy of Facial Plastic Reconstructive Surgery CORE Research Grant and an AAO-HNS/F Resident Leadership Grant. After finishing his residency, Dr. Bloom sought out additional expertise and was chosen into the highly sought after and extremely competitive facial plastic reconstructive surgery fellowship program at the New York University (NYU) Langone Medical Center. During Dr. Bloom’s fellowship, he acted as an attending surgeon at NYU while also working with some of the most renowned facial plastic reconstructive surgeons in the country, operating at NYU Tisch Hospital, the famed Manhattan Eye, Ear Throat Hospital, known by many as the center of plastic surgery in New York, and private practices on Manhattan’s prestigious Upper East Side. This subspecialty training provided Dr. Bloom with a chance to learn from his mentors as well as develop his own surgical skills and technique, blending multiple different innovative methods and experiences. Dr. Bloom is one of the few surgeons on the Main Line who has gone through such rigorous and prestigious training, including board certification from the American Board of Otolaryngology – Head Neck Surgery and a fellowship with the American Academy of Facial Plastic Reconstructive Surgery. Dr. Bloom has comprehensive experience in face lifting, rhinoplasty, ear surgery, eyelid rejuvenation, brow and forehead aesthetic surgery as well as extensive training in non-surgical treatments including Botox, injectable fillers, and laser therapies. Dr. Bloom has authored over 20 journal articles and book chapters, and has given numerous presentations at national and international conferences. Dr.Bloom continues to be academically involved with teaching residents, and performing research studies and clinical trials in the area of facial plastic reconstructive surgery. Additionally, he is an active member of both the American Academy of Facial Plastic Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) and American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS). Dr. Bloom’s philosophy is to provide each patient with a specialized treatment plan based on his or her individual needs, stressing a natural, refreshed and rejuvenated look. Dr. Bloom then uses his training and knowledge of the both time tested and cutting-edge procedures to provide his patients with safe, reliable and long lasting treatments. Above all else, Dr. Bloom has a passion for his profession and his wonderful family. In his free time, he enjoys skiing, the outdoors, music, travel, modern art, and Michigan football.

This was very helpful. Thanks! This suddenly came on ,6/1/2017. Going to Therapy now to see if it works. Got my second visit end of Sept. Praying it works.

Thank you, your answer was helpful! However, could that cause ENS and won't fixing the septum and polyps/cysts allow for drainage already?
