Does someone has any info about the 3-year postgraduate course in plastic surgery the ivo pitanguy clinic offers?

It seems that you have to pay tuition fees. What is the comparison with the US programs in terms of education and specialty exposure ? ...

btw I am an international medical graduate going for a US general surgery program. Thanks in advance
 
Ivo Pitanguy is one of the best in the World.
However I hope u are aware that you would be expected to have a General Surgery Residency before applying.
And the Brazilian Medical Association has changed rules for Residency Application. U need a Permamnet Visa, so if u don`t have it then a hands on experience will be tough
