Fiona Melanie Wood (born 2 February 1958) is an Australian plastic surgeon and burns specialist working in Perth, Western Australia.

[1][4] In October 2002, Wood was propelled into the media spotlight when the largest proportion of survivors from the 2002 Bali bombings arrived at Royal Perth Hospital.

She led a team working to save 28 patients who had between 2 and 92 per cent body burns, deadly infections and delayed shock.

In March 2007, following the crash landing of Garuda Indonesia Flight 200, Wood travelled to Yogyakarta, to assist in the emergency medical response for burn patients.

[9] In 2022, she released her biography, Under her Skin by Sue Williams, with her share of proceeds from the book going to the Fiona Wood Foundation.

Wood turned to the emerging US-invented technology of cultured skin to save his life, working nights in a laboratory along with scientist Marie Stoner.

The company started operating in 1993 and now cultures small biopsies into bigger volumes of skin cell suspensions in as few as five days.

[13] As well as receiving much praise from both her own patients and the media, she also attracted controversy among other burns surgeons because spray-on skin had not yet been subjected to clinical trials.
