Dr. A. Richard Grossman is an internationally recognized plastic surgeon and pioneer in the comprehensive treatment of burn wounds. A graduate of Emory University and The University of Tennessee Medical School, his post-graduate training spanned eight years at Cook County Hospital, where he became Board-certified in both General Surgery and Plastic Surgery.

In 1958, while serving as the chief emergency room resident at Cook County Hospital in Chicago, Dr. Grossman treated victims of a catastrophic fire at Our Lady of Angels parochial elementary school, which claimed the lives of 93 children and four nuns. The many of the victims were so badly charred it was impossible to tell if they were girls or boys.

The experience had a profound effect on Dr. Grossman and was a driving force behind his vision to create a world-class comprehensive burn treatment facility dedicated to providing the best burn care anywhere, whose philosophy would be to not just ensure survival, but to restore patients to as close to their pre-injury condition as possible –functionally, emotionally and cosmetically.
