Originally from Iran, Dr. Anahita Aslani attended Tehran Medical University, the highest ranked medical school in the country, and graduated with an MD degree.

As a surgeon, Dr. Aslani accepted a position at a teaching hospital providing medical education. Her desire to learn and accomplish creative surgeries led her to begin a fellowship with Dr. Gousheh, an outstanding professor of plastic, reconstructive and micro-surgery. Dr. Gousheh encouraged her to continue her journey and travel to France to learn the latest plastic and reconstructive surgery techniques.

Dr. Aslani was awarded the Government of France Bursary for subspecialty training courses in Paris university hospitals. With exceptional performance, she received the Diploma of Microsurgery from École de Chirurgie, Université Paris 13, and completed the AFSA program with Professor Masquelet, Université Paris 7.

In 2011, Dr. Aslani and her family moved to Canada, proudly calling Moncton their home. She enrolled at Sherbrooke Medical School, receiving her second MD degree in 2016, then completed the postgraduate program at Dalhousie University in 2018. Dr. Aslani began providing medical care in affiliation with The Moncton Hospital, concentrating on areas of her expertise and experience.

Upon meeting Dr. Aslani, Dr. Howley immediately knew that her experience and surgical skill were gold-standard and elite and invited her to join our team. Dr. Aslani believes building good communication is the cornerstone of patient care. She speaks French, English, and Persian, and always dedicates time to learning new languages.
