He graduated medical school in 1997 in the top 10% of his class and was elected to the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society.

This time included fellowships both in microsurgery and perforator flap breast reconstruction with Dr. Robert Allen in New Orleans, Louisiana and in advanced aesthetic surgery with Dr. Bryan Mendelson in Melbourne, Australia.
Dr. Granzow has presented or assisted with live surgery demonstrations on many plastic surgery topics, including perforator flap breast reconstruction, at numerous scientific meetings both nationally and internationally and has authored numerous articles in recent and upcoming issues of the major, peer reviewed, plastic surgery journals.
