Copy of About — Alberta Society of Plastic Surgeons

The Alberta Society of Plastic Surgeons is also known as the Section of Plastic Surgery of the Alberta Medical Association. The Society has over 60 members, and only those accredited in plastic surgery by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada may join. Our membership provides the entire spectrum of plastic-surgical procedures for children and adults, with members operating in Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Lethbridge, Medicine Hat, Banff, Canmore, and Camrose.

Our members are committed to providing the best plastic-surgical care available worldwide. The Society supports this goal by holding an annual meeting for its members where information on the most up-to-date practices and procedures are shared. We provide modest support to research and plastic surgery missions conducted by our members, and we are also devoted to training tomorrow’s plastic surgeons by supporting training programs at the University of Alberta and the University of Calgary.
