What is the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)?
Our physicians are members of American Society of Plastic Surgeons, which was founded in 1931. It is the largest organization of board certified plastic surgeons in the world. The mission of ASPS is to advance quality care to plastic surgery patients by encouraging high standards of training, ethics, physician practice and research in plastic surgery. The society advocates for patient safety, and also works in concert with the Plastic Surgery Educational Foundation (PSEF), founded in 1948, which supports research and educational programs for plastic surgeons.
