Gustavo E. Galante, MD

Dr. Gustavo E. Galante pursued a career in medicine because he felt this field best combined his love for science and his affinity for the humanities. Raised in Northwest Indiana, Dr. Galante obtained a liberal arts education at Wabash College, graduating summa cum laude. He received his medical education from the Indiana University School of Medicine. He was elected a member of the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society as recognition of his academic distinction.

After serving his general and plastic surgery residencies at the Loyola University Medical Center, Dr. Galante completed a fellowship in aesthetic surgery and reconstructive breast surgery at the Institute for Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery in Nashville, Tennessee. He has since established two practices specializing in plastic surgery, one in Schererville and one in Valparaiso. Both are located near Munster and Merrillville in Northwest Indiana.

Dr. Galante is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. He is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, The American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery, and the Ohio Valley Society for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.

Dr. Galante has been asked to speak to a number of lay and medical audiences on a variety of plastic surgery topics. He is an active and involved member of his community, donating his time to local community projects and charitable organizations.
