Product Description

The Essentials for Students book, available in PDF form, was written primarily for medical students to better understand the incredible field of plastic surgery. It provides a brief introduction to the specialty and is not designed to be a comprehensive text, but rather an outline that can be read in the limited time available in a burgeoning curriculum. Continually updated, we seek to provide the best possible resource for students to experience – and perhaps choose – plastic surgery.

This book reflects the hard work and collaboration of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) Young Plastic Surgeons (YPS) Steering Committee and the Residents Council, which represents plastic surgery residents, fellows and attendings nationwide. Plastic surgery is ultimately a specialty of innovation in which surgeons are continually pushing the limits of what is possible. Our goal for Essentials for Students is to make it more approachable so that more students can fall in love with the specialty, just as we did.

ASPS is proud to provide complimentary copies of this Essentials for Students book to all third-year medical students in the United States and Canada.

NOTE: This is not a physical book. It is available on ASPS EdNet and also downloadable as an EPUB (best for e-readers/tablets) or PDF (best for desktop).
