Biography

Dr. Peter Arnold is a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in complex traumatic and surgical wound reconstruction. Dr. Arnold grew up in Minnesota and moved to Virginia while in high school. A graduate of Davidson College in North Carolina, he went on to obtain a PhD in somatosensory neurophysiology at the University of Tennessee, Memphis. He subsequently earned his MD from Virginia Commonwealth University and completed his plastic surgery training at the University of Virginia prior to joining the plastic surgery faculty at UMMC. Dr. Arnold is the Division Chief of Plastic Surgery at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. He has been married to his wife, Catherine, for 24 years; they have three grown children.
