Dear Beloved Patient,
I am writing to share that I will be transitioning toward retirement from my facial plastic surgery practice in the near future. This has been a thoughtful and gradual process, and many of you will begin to see this transition take place within the practice.
From performing more than 10,000 facial procedures to building lasting relationships with patients who have traveled from across the country and around the world, I am deeply thankful for the trust you have placed in me.
One of my highest priorities throughout this process has been ensuring that my patients continue to receive the exceptional care they deserve. With that in mind, I am pleased to share that Dr. Jason Ulm is now leading the practice. I have complete confidence in Dr. Ulm, whose commitment to excellence, innovation, and patient-centered care closely reflects the values that have guided my work throughout my career. Like me, he prioritizes natural results, thoughtful collaboration, and a dedication to each patient’s individual goals.
Over this transition period, I have been working closely with Dr. Ulm and the team to ensure continuity of care and a seamless experience for all patients. Whether you are considering surgery, maintaining your results, or exploring non-surgical treatments, you can feel confident that you are in capable and trusted hands.
No action is needed for your medical records to remain here at the office.
While stepping away from clinical practice is bittersweet, I am excited for the opportunity to spend more time with my growing family. My grandchildren live in Costa Rica, Kauai, and Greensboro, and I look forward to being a more active part of their lives and creating memories together beyond our Zoom calls.
I have greatly valued our patient-physician relationship and wish you continued health. If you have any questions or need assistance in the future, Dr. Jason Ulm and the team at Ulm Plastic Surgery would be happy to help. Please feel free to call the office at 843-884-3277.

Thomas Funcik, MD
