Description
This comprehensive review is designed to help you pass your Plastic Surgery exams as well as to update your clinical knowledge-base. The course includes didactic lectures, embedded questions and discussion time at the end of most topics, and a dedicated question and answer session. Emphasis is on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care, incorporating current best practice concepts, surgical approaches, and clinical follow-up strategies. As a result, it provides a good review for your ABPS written and oral exams as well as providing a thorough review of plastic surgery for physicians in practice. Many of our previous learners found the course provided them with improved diagnostic and planning strategies, a better understanding of the best surgical approaches for the principle areas covered by plastic surgeons, and helped them recognize areas of weakness for self-study.
