Best Plastic Surgeons

Doing your homework and choosing a best plastic surgeon does not need to be a daunting task. With the right guidience you should do alright. After all, you will be looking at your surgeons work for the rest of your life so why not do the best you can to find the best surgeon available.

Their is no magical solution where you go and have plastic surgery and your guaranteed everything will come out perfect. If a surgeon does "guarantee" a succesful outcome "run the other way."

Like you and me surgeons are human and even the best (elite) surgeons make mistakes. These days its amazing how many surgeons are going out of bounds and practicing medicine where they have little (if any) training & experience. Based on my experience over the last 5 years in researching the best doctors I believe you have bad surgeons, good surgeons, and then you have the "elite."

The best plastic surgeons are a special kind of breed. They usually share a few common traits such as: 1.Are Board certified 2.Are MDs 3.Involved in their community 4.chosen by their peers as their choice of surgeon 5.Internationally known 6.belong to a medical society

One thing is for sure. They do not exist in every zip code or city. The percentage is extremely small compared to the actual (roughly 5,000+) practicing plastic surgeons.

Often times when they advertise they take the medica/press route. They write articles, and publications.

Medical Doctor Quality Ratings

How are medical doctor quality ratings performed?
A process which an establishment uses their own methodologies in rating a doctor. Here is a good example.
MDNationwide only rates the best doctors, therefore if a doctor does not meet our 24 point high quality rating system, no information on that particular doctor is displayed. Doctors who make our list we have recognized as the top in their respective specialty field. Unlike most businesses out their our ratings are much more in-depth and involves more than just a recognition (popularity) survey.

Every doctors training, education, experience, recognition, licensure status and other credential information must meet our ratings requirements. We have spent over 5 years (trial & error) perfecting our proprietary in-house doctor ratings system. No, it will never be perfect, however we are confident our doctors rank amongst the highest in their respective field, nationwide.

We are not a one size fits all kind of business and we research for quality not quantity. Generally those consumers who because of their medical needs require a top specialist or those who are willing to travel at whatever distance.

Many establishments are rating doctors which then display "bad" "good" "great" results to the public. For many reasons this usually does not sit well with many doctors. Big well known establishments take this approach because there is generally more money to be made. Basically, this type of service appeals to any consumer who is looking for a doctor because the chances of finding information (neg or pos) on a particular doctor within their area (geographically) is much greater.

In a nutshell-Its totally up to the consumer what type of information they feel is more valuable to them. Because in the end its about having the most qualified medical team on your side.
