This comprehensive review will help you pass your Plastic Surgery exams and update your clinical knowledge base. The course includes didactic lectures, embedded questions, discussion time at the end of most topics, and a dedicated question and answers 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 CC exams and provides a thorough review of plastic surgery for physicians in practice. In addition, 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 principal areas covered by plastic surgeons and helped them recognize areas of weakness for self-study.
