Dr. Kyle Summers, Triple Board-Eligible Cosmetic Surgeon

A New Generation of Surgical Excellence

Dr. Kyle Summers brings a dynamic combination of surgical training, technical mastery, and deep compassion to Southern Surgical Arts. With triple board eligibility in general surgery, cosmetic surgery, and facial cosmetic surgery, he offers a fresh, well-rounded perspective to modern aesthetic care.

Built on Hard Work and Heart

Raised on a family farm in northern Utah, Dr. Summers learned early the value of discipline and integrity. He’s carried those values with him throughout his academic and surgical journey—from undergraduate work in Exercise Physiology at the University of Utah to advanced medical training across the East Coast.

Academic Distinction and Service

Dr. Summers earned his medical degree from the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine, where he excelled in neuromuscular medicine and served as president of the neuromuscular chapter. He consistently stood out for both academic excellence and leadership, qualities that continue to shape his surgical career.

Surgical Training With Depth and Range

He completed a rigorous five-year general surgery residency in Long Island, New York, including intensive work with cosmetic and reconstructive surgical teams. In his final year, Dr. Summers was named Chief Resident and gained wide recognition for his operative skill, compassion, and leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fellowship at Southern Surgical Arts

Drawn to aesthetic surgery’s blend of science and artistry, Dr. Summers completed a dedicated cosmetic and facial surgery fellowship at Southern Surgical Arts. His clinical focus includes full-body sculpting, facial rejuvenation, breast procedures, and results that reflect subtle, balanced enhancement, not trend-driven extremes.

“It is an honor to join such a prestigious group of surgeons. The nursing is top notch, and the ancillary staff are second to none,”

A Surgeon Who Listens

Known for his honesty, empathy, and thorough consultations, Dr. Summers takes pride in forming collaborative relationships with patients. Whether you're pursuing a single procedure or a longer-term aesthetic plan, his goal is to guide you with clarity, integrity, and clinical excellence every step of the way.

Life Outside the OR

When he’s not busy attending to his little ones, Dr. Summers can be found engaging in various activities such as working out at the YMCA, critiquing films, or immersing himself in the beauty of the great outdoors. His warmth and work ethic show in everything he does. Dr. Summers, his wife Amanda, and their 2-year-old twin daughters, Lila and Cora, love calling Chattanooga home.
