About

Dr. John B. Hijjawi is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon practicing in Murray, Utah. He performs plastic surgery procedures including breast reduction, breast reconstruction, breast lift, mommy makeover, and tummy tuck. Dr. Hijjawi specializes in the Resensation® surgical technique, which utilizes Avance® (acellular nerve allograft-arwx). This technique is designed to restore sensory nerve function following a mastectomy, addressing the numbness many women experience after breast cancer surgery. He notes that breast reconstruction can help patients look more like themselves after a mastectomy. Dr. Hijjawi emphasizes the importance of choosing a care team that aligns with a patient's needs and understands their post-treatment goals. Patients are encouraged to ask their surgical team if the Resensation® surgical technique may be appropriate for them, keeping in mind that not all patients are candidates for nerve repair and individual surgical results may vary.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2025)

$16,819

Payments

10

Compared to peers

Above average

Dr. John B. Hijjawi received $16,819 across 10 payments in 2025. That is higher than about 89% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as compensation for services other than consulting, including serving as faculty or as a speaker at a venue other than a continuing education program, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
