Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Surgical Education
  • Medical Professionalism

Background:

  • Most plastic surgeons practice outside academia, limiting their input on residency selection.
  • Academic plastic surgeons select future trainees, raising questions about the validity of current selection criteria.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify traits considered essential for excellence in plastic surgery.
  • To compare the perspectives of academic and non-academic plastic surgeons, as well as trainees, on desired surgeon attributes.

Main Methods:

  • An electronic survey was distributed to attendees of the American Council of Academic Plastic Surgeons meeting.
  • Respondents identified the five most important traits for an excellent plastic surgeon from a list of 20.
  • Chi-square and Fisher exact tests were used for subgroup analyses.

Main Results:

  • 187 responses were received, yielding an 89.0% response rate.
  • Top traits identified were: technically sound (53%), collaborative (48%), ethical (44%), compassionate (37%), and emotionally intelligent (33%).
  • Attribute importance varied significantly across different demographic groups.

Conclusions:

  • The selection process for plastic surgery residency should align with valued surgeon traits.
  • Holistic review methods are recommended for evaluating applicants to ensure congruence with essential attributes.
