Global Training In Action

The ISAPS Fellowship Program has long provided early-career plastic surgeons with the opportunity to expand their clinical expertise, gain international exposure, and learn from leading surgeons across diverse healthcare settings.

The 2018 cohort reflects the impact of this experience, bringing together fellows from different regions, backgrounds, and stages of training, each with a shared commitment to advancing surgical practice and patient care.

Below, fellows from the 2018 program share their experiences across host institutions worldwide. Their reflections offer insight into the day-to-day realities of the fellowship:
