As a leader in surgical education, our residency training program attracts the finest trainees from across the country that participate in the complex, tertiary cases referred to our centre. Our division is proud to graduate three to four highly trained Plastic Surgeons per year along with one Craniofacial Surgery subspecialty fellow. Combined with a highly productive and dedicated, full-time research team and infrastructure, McGill Plastic Surgery oversees numerous MSc and PhD students annually and continues to produce a high volume of peer-reviewed publications and book chapters. Taken as a whole, McGill Plastic Surgery embodies the true nature of a high-level academic surgery program, encompassing innovative patient care, surgical education and training of future plastic surgeons and leading edge research.
