Birndorf Hand & Plastic Surgery
October 30, 2026
Dear Patients,
After many rewarding years, I am writing with both sadness and excitement to share that I will be retiring from plastic surgery on December 31, 2026. I will continue to see patients in my Kenosha office until that date.
Your records. Until my office closes, you can obtain your records by contacting my office at (262) 656-8237 or records@birndorfplasticsurgery.com. By December 31, this website will tell you whom to contact and how to obtain your records, including how to have them sent to another physician.
Plastic surgery follow-up care. If you need follow-up care or are considering a procedure, I encourage you to contact my office soon so that we can see you before December 31. After that date, you may seek care from any surgeon of your choice. I recommend seeking a board-certified plastic surgeon, who can be found at find.plasticsurgery.org.
Hand surgery. I am not retiring from hand surgery. I plan to see hand surgery patients in Racine, and possibly in Kenosha. I will post locations and scheduling information on this website by December 31 of this year.
This website will remain active after my office closes. It will provide updates, information about obtaining records, and recommendations for continuing your care.
It has been an honor and a privilege to serve as your surgeon and medical provider, and I will miss our interactions. The trust you placed in me over the years has meant a great deal, and I am grateful for it.
Sincerely,
Michael S. Birndorf, MD
