Importance of Choosing a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
Serving Patients in Jacksonville, Florida
If you are considering having some kind of plastic surgery procedure, it is very important that you choose your plastic surgeon very carefully. You want the best results with the lowest risk of complications, which means choosing a surgeon who is professional and qualified. One excellent way of determining if your Jacksonville plastic surgeon is qualified to perform your plastic surgery procedure is to see if he or she is board-certified. Jacksonville plastic surgeon Dr. Ankit Desai is board-certified in plastic surgery by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Inc.
Board Certification Means Proven Competence
What is so special about board-certified plastic surgeons? Board certification from the American Board of Plastic Surgery is an extremely challenging and rigorous process, meaning that any board-certified plastic surgeon such as Dr. Desai is proven to be knowledgeable and competent in plastic surgery. Just to be eligible to take the difficult oral and written board certification exams, a doctor must already have:
- Graduated from an accredited medical school
- Completed at least 5 years of surgical residency in an accredited program
- Residency training must include at least 2 years of dedicated plastic surgery residency
Not every plastic surgeon has graduated from the prestigious Johns Hopkins University as well as a highly selective, accelerated medical school program at the University of Florida like Dr. Desai, so board certification ensures proven competence no matter what schools the doctor attended.
Whether medically necessary or elective, plastic surgery is definitely a serious medical procedure entailing some degree of risk. Choosing a board-certified Jacksonville plastic surgeon like Dr. Desai helps minimize the risk of complications and helps ensure excellent results.
