Hi, I am curious what the best route to plastics is that would allow a surgeon the widest scope of practice. By that I mean, as a plastics fellowship trained general surgeon you could do some abdomen work, as a fellowship trained ENT you could do septoplastys and allergy work, versus as a graduate of an integrated program you would focus more on reconstruction and cosmetic work. Does one route offer you a better range of high reimbursement procedures? Are there any surgeons out there doing half ENT work and half plastics work, just to fill up their schedules? I apologize if this is a stupid question, I have an interest in plastics but I like to work a lot and don't want to be stuck catering to cosmetics patients just to keep busy 70 hours a week. And it would be nice if I could raise my take home a little bit even while avoiding those patients. Thanks in advance for any replies!
