Meet Your Plastic Surgery Team—
Appleby Plastic Surgery was founded by three of Canada’s top plastic surgeons to create something rare: a clinic where expertise, collaboration, and patient comfort come together. Here, it’s not just about the outcome—it’s about how you’re treated every step of the way.
We’re a group of surgeons with complementary specialties and shared standards. We’ve trained fellow surgeons, published research papers on breast reconstruction and breast implant safety, and led surgical programs at top healthcare institutions.
Each of us brings a distinct specialty to Appleby Plastic Surgery, and we consult with one another regularly to deliver the best outcomes possible.

We're the team other plastic surgeons trust for their surgery
Bright, clean, and modern—our surgical centre is equipped with the latest technology and designed to feel nothing like a hospital.
A beautiful, purpose-built space
We’re one of only three private plastic surgery clinics in the region offering overnight recovery. That means complex procedures don’t require a hospital stay—and your recovery can happen in a quiet, comfortable environment.
Overnight care when it counts
We’re not tied to hospital rules or investor interests. Every recommendation we make is based on what’s best for you.
Our surgeons train other surgeons, publish peer-reviewed research, and lead national programs. We’re trusted by both peers and patients—including for complex revisions and high-risk cases.
In most clinics, surgeons work independently. At Appleby, we regularly co-plan—and sometimes co-operate—on complex cases to ensure the best possible results.
Unmatched credentials
Independent and patient-first

We’re approachable, honest, and here to support your decision—whatever that looks like.
No judgment. No pressure.
We don’t rush.
We don’t sugarcoat.
And we definitely
don’t push our own aesthetic.

Located at Mainway and Appleby Line in Burlington, our clinic was built from the ground up to provide a better surgical experience. We’re one of only three private plastic surgery clinics in the region with on-site overnight recovery—which means we can take on more complex cases and support your recovery more fully.
Dr. Coroneos is an internationally recognized expert in breast implant safety and reconstruction, having led the largest investigation of breast implant safety to date. He is the regional authority on breast implant-associated anaplastic large-cell lymphoma and breast implant illness. His expertise in breast reconstruction is backed by advanced training in microsurgery.
He performs the full spectrum of cancer reconstruction at Juravinski and trauma reconstruction at Hamilton General Hospital, and leads the McMaster Reconstructive Outcomes research program. His experience in reconstructive procedures for breasts, abdominal, gynecologic and head and neck cancers results in the best outcomes for his patients.

Dr. Christopher Coroneos
Dr. Waltho is a board-certified plastic surgeon celebrated for his refined, patient-centred approach and skilled technique. He delivers results that are effortless, comforting, and subtly transformative across a wide spectrum of procedures, including gynecomastia, breast augmentation, labiaplasty, and penile enhancement. Known for making patients feel safe and heard, Dr. Waltho is trusted for both cosmetic and reconstructive care in the Greater Burlington and Halton areas.
A versatile surgeon with extensive hospital privileges—including Joseph Brant Hospital in Burlington and Halton Healthcare Service centres—Dr. Waltho offers both private and OHIP-insured procedures. His practice spans breast, body, facial, and hand surgery, backed by thoughtful planning, clear communication, and a commitment to delivering safe, effective outcomes tailored to each patient’s unique goals.
MD FRCSC
Dr. Daniel Waltho
Dr. Avram is a board-certified plastic surgeon known for his precision in body contouring and revision surgery, particularly in complex or high-BMI cases.
Like Waltho and Coroneos, he has earned a reputation across Ontario for taking on cases that other surgeons turn away—including botched procedures, major weight loss transformations, and high-risk liposuction. Patients value his honest, thoughtful consultations and his ability to produce safe, striking results—even in the most challenging scenarios.
Dr. Avram has contributed to the field through surgical education and academic publishing, and has held leadership roles in both hospital-based and private surgical practice.
