“I believe that a community is only as strong as those that give back to it… and a person is only as good as how they treat their neighbors”
Giving back to the community has always been a strong aspect of Dr. Stanwix’s life. He believes that a community is only as strong as those that give back to it. That is why he sponsors, volunteers, donates, or gives products to integral community non-profit organizations: (Make-A-Wish, Little Hands Virginia, MomProm, NOVA Swimming, Oshkosh Women’s Fund, Impact 100, SPCA, etc). Also, did you know that Dr. Stanwix is a volunteer coach for many sports activities (baseball, football, basketball, & soccer)?
Besides community service, Dr. Stanwix also dedicates his time, expertise, and plastic surgery skills into treating those less fortunate. First of all, Dr. Stanwix is a doctor above all else; regardless of a person’s ability to pay or insurance status, he will see and treat all patients. For example, he performs pro bono high quality surgery and cares for patients in Richmond, VA who does not have insurance. Also, Dr. Stanwix carries this outside of the United States. He journeys on medical mission trips, to areas such as Nha Trang Vietnam (Changing Children’s Lives), where he performs cleft lip and other pediatric surgeries to children in need.
