Nicholas Howland, MD, FACS is a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon, wellness entrepreneur, and host of The Naked Patient podcast. He's also the author of The Atheist's Prayer, a deeply personal book centered on the radical idea that you are worthy of love-no matter what you've done, who you've been, or what you no longer believe.
Born and raised in Murray, Utah, Dr. Howland leads Howland Plastic Surgery in Draper, where he combines surgical precision with artistic vision. His practice offers a wide range of aesthetic and reconstructive services, from hand surgery to breast augmentation, with a focus on personalized care and long-term outcomes.
Outside the OR, he's a father of two, an avid skier, a golfer, a pianist, and a reader who rarely skips the New York Times crossword. Whether on Writers Island or in the operating room, Nicholas brings honesty, curiosity, and a deep belief in the power of transformation.
