Choosing A Plastic Surgeon

It is more difficult today, for the average potential cosmetic patient to select a “qualified” and “well trained” plastic surgeon, than ever before.  Dozens of other physician’s are trying to augment their income, by performing cosmetic procedures and advertising themselves, as plastic surgeons without actual formal training.

QUICK TIPS FOR FINDING A QUALIFIED PLASTIC SURGEON

• Training -  Dr. Hines had 4 years of medical school, followed by 5 years of general surgery and three years of plastic and reconstructive surgery at Duke University, Mayo Clinic, University of Utah and University of Miami -  All renowned programs.
  
  
• Years of Experience - More than 20 years. Practice makes perfect.  The more times a surgeon performs a procedure, the better he or she will be.
  
  
• Board Certification - Board Certification from the “American Board of Plastic Surgery”.  (ABPS) is the true hallmark, that your surgeon has passed rigorous written and oral exams,  in this speciality.  Many people, are unaware that there is nothing to prevent non-specialized surgeons from performing cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Hines is “Board Certified” in plastic surgery and has the credentials and experience to prove it.  All of his training and degrees came from “ nationally” accredited medical schools,  training residencies and fellowships.
