Medical Profile of Dr.

Richard Isaacs
SUMMARY
Professional Background
I joined Kaiser Permanente in 1995 and have Advanced Certification in Head and Neck
Oncologic Surgery. My specialties include: orbital, nasal, and maxillofacial surgery, as well as
thyroid and parathyroid surgery. I function as a regional resource for the management of
advanced tumors of the head and neck and provide the otolaryngologic approach for tumors at
the skull base. Additionally, I am trained in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive surgery and
perform rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, otoplasty, and rhytidectomy. I have an interest in posttumor facial reconstruction and facial reanimation surgery. I am a Fellow of the American
Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, and also a Fellow of the American College
of Surgeons.

I received my Bachelor of Science degree, with Distinction, from the University of Michigan in
Ann Arbor, and my Doctor of Medicine degree, with Honors, from Wayne State University in
Detroit. Then, I completed my Otolaryngology training in New York at the Manhattan Eye, Ear,
and Throat Hospital / New York Hospital-Cornell Medical College. Subsequently, I received
additional Head and Neck Oncologic and Skull Base Surgical training from Memorial SloanKettering Cancer Center and The University of California, Davis. I am also a 2004 graduate of the
Kenan-Flagler School of Business Advanced Leadership Program, University of North Carolina,
Chapel Hill and the University of California, San Francisco, CHCF Advanced Leadership Program.

Roles
In April of 2005, I was appointed to the Physician-In-Chief and Chief-of-Staff positions for the
South Sacramento and Elk Grove Medical Facilities. I am very fortunate to be able to continue
my head and neck surgical practice and I greatly enjoy my administrative position as well. I
provide leadership to our 450 physicians/providers and more than 2000 nurses and staff who
care for the 200,000 Kaiser Permanente members in the South Sacramento/Elk Grove area.
