True Lansden

Dr. True, to his friends, is truly a Keys person. Growing up part-time in Ohio and part-time in Key Colony Beach he quickly developed a love of The Florida Keys. His father earned his pilot's license and bought an airplane so getting back and forth was no problem for the family. True enjoyed sharing the responsibility of flying the family plane on many trips to and from the Marathon airport and quickly followed his father becoming the youngest licensed pilot in America at the time. After his medical and surgical training, he joined his father's practice in Southern Mississippi. This is where he met his wife, Lisa, and she began working with him. Through the years he missed the beauty and lifestyle of the Keys so one day the family packed their bags and moved back to the Keys. Dr. Lansden practiced at The Florida Keys Center for Plastic Surgery in Tavernier for seven years, where he was Chief of Surgery at Mariner's Hospital. During the recession, Dr. Lansden went to cover a need for a facial and hand trauma at Lawnwood Regional Medical Center and Heart Institute where he received an appointment as Assistant Clinical Professor of Surgery for Florida State University, and after five years is returning home to the Florida Keys. Dr. True and his wife, Lisa, are the parents to five sons, Ken, Tommy, David, Tyler, and Michael- all grown up!
