Dr. Schreiber in Honduras with 3 month old, Jose Cruz and his mother. Jose just had a complete cleft lip and nasal repair.

Dr. Schreiber began a simultaneous interest in art and medicine at a very early age. Growing up in small town Canfield, Ohio in a medical family (physician father and nurse mother), he was sent off for art lessons at age 8. He kept up his interest in art throughout his primary and secondary schooling and graduated Valedictorian of his high school class in 1973. He then attended Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio, where he double-majored in Biology and Fine Art and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1977.

Having already been accepted to medical school at the University of Cincinnati, Ohio, he deferred his admission and took a year off to travel and concentrate on his art. It was at this time that he "discovered" that plastic surgery would be the perfect blending of both worlds, and set about designing the next 12 years of his medical education and training towards that goal. He completed a prerequisite general surgery residency at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, New Jersey, before entering the plastic residency program at the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital. It was there, under the training and influence of internationally known plastic surgeon D. Ralph Millard, Jr., M.D., that all of his previous plastic surgery experiences came together.

Upon completion of his training, he opened his plastic surgery practice in Boynton Beach in 1990. Originally on staff at Bethesda Hospital, Delray Medical Center and JFK Medical Center, his practice is now devoted to aesthetic surgery based out of his nationally accredited surgery and recovery center, The Plastic Surgery Art Centre. Dr. Schreiber is married with two teenage daughters, and continues to create art, travel and enjoy many outdoor activities in his spare time.
