 SURGEONS:
Surgeon Directory Research your Doc Qs to ask your doc Rate Your Doc Plastic
Surgery Sites Our Plastic Surgeons: Some refer to plastic surgeons as cosmetic surgeons; however, a plastic surgeon is what you really want. Most doctors calling themselves "cosmetic surgeons" are not true plastic surgeons and are not qualified or experienced in plastic surgery. To be sure you are seeing a true "plastic surgeon" choose an American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) certified plastic surgeon. All of our plastic surgeons are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. The American Board of Plastic Surgery is the ONLY plastic surgery board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) which oversees legit boards. Almost 90% of all licensed physicians in the United States are certified by an ABMS Member Board, there is no reason to see a doctor from the bottom 10%. You could be seeing a doctor that is just a doctor and not even a surgeon, no less a plastic surgeon. There are over 5000 certified plastic surgeons, and of them only a small percentage are invited to join our plastic surgeon directory. By choosing an American Board of Plastic Surgery certified plastic surgeon; patients are ensured the surgeon has graduated from an accredited medical school and completed at least five years of residency (usually three years of general surgery and two years of plastic surgery). A plastic surgeon must also practice for two years and pass written and oral examinations in plastic surgery. I
have personally checked the qualifications of our member plastic surgeons.
In fact, our plastic surgeons meet higher standards than those of any
other referral service as we only list select plastic surgeons to be
in our plastic surgeon directory. Our plastic surgeons must also maintain
that standard in order to remain in our plastic surgeon directory. |

There are over 5000 certified plastic surgeons and of them less than 20% are invited to join our directory. Although our web sites generate exposure and referrals for our member surgeons, our sites are created for the patient. Thus, we take our referral directory seriously and will remove a surgeon should we feel they no longer practices by the standards we expect from our surgeons. We have removed surgeons from our directory in the past and have turned down many. When we say we list the best, we mean it. To see if you qualify, please inquire about becoming a member. Find
