- Education at prestigious institutions. After earning my BS in Psychology from the University of California Davis, I earned my MD from the University of California San Francisco School of Medicine.
- Advanced training. My training includes a fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery at Stanford, as well as an internship and residency at Johns Hopkins University.
These are just a few of the reasons why my patients choose me as their facial cosmetic surgeon in San Francisco.

My Passion for Facial Plastics
Dr. Mabrie is continuing a family tradition, following the footsteps of his father, Dr. Herman J. Mabrie III, a well-respected Head & Neck surgeon in Houston, Texas.
I'm continuing a family tradition, following in my father's footsteps. He is a well-respected head and neck surgeon practicing in Houston. I was inspired by what he did, and it encouraged me to specialize in facial plastic surgery.
I knew I needed the best possible education and training. So I began with what all surgeons do; I got my undergraduate degree, finished 4 years of medical school, and then moved on to my training. That's where I was different than many of my peers. I completed a general surgery internship and then went on to complete a residency for head and neck surgery and an additional fellowship facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.
"I help people transform the way they look
and the way they feel – I can't
imagine anything more rewarding."
When I was ready to start my own practice, I had no problem choosing San Francisco. It's such a dynamic city, with really interesting people. It had just the right progressive, yet established atmosphere for me.
Every day has been a reminder that I chose the right path. Like my father, I know I'm doing what I'm meant to do. So what does the future have in store? Moving forward, I'm planning to continue to be open to new developments and agile enough to incorporate them into my practice. I'm going to stay ahead of the curve.
I get to be a part of helping people transform the way they look and often they way they feel about their life - I can't imagine anything more rewarding.
