Bizarre story from the Huffington Post:
Miami plastic surgeon Michael Salzhauer recently incited controversy when he produced a rock video, “Jewcan Sam,” in which a young Jewish man only gets the hot blond after undergoing rhinoplasty. Salzhauer, who goes by the nickname Dr. Schnoz, also ran a contest along with the video to give away free nose jobs.
He is currenty under an ethics investigation by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
The Bal Harbour-based surgeon is back in headlines, this time hoping to solve the perpetual singledom of some Orthodox Jews.
After seeing the article “Purim And The Tyranny Of Beauty: A Plea to Mothers of Girls in Shidduchim” in the Jewish Press, Salzhauer, who is Orthodox, is offering free plastic surgery to single Orthodox Jews having trouble finding a partner.
Huh? Plastic surgery videos? Dr. Schnoz? Free surgery for Orthodox Jews? Sounds like Dr. Salzhauer’s looking for some publicity. Well, it’s worked! For his sake, hopefully it isn’t at the cost of his membership in the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
