	washingtonpost.com: Surgeon General Favors Tobacco Ban
		Surgeon General Richard H. Carmona said yesterday that he supports the banning of tobacco products -- the first time that the government's top doctor and public health advocate has made such a strong statement about the historically contentious subject.
		But while surgeons general have been increasingly aggressive in advocating efforts to control tobacco use, none made the kind of comments that Carmona did yesterday.
		Everett Koop, when he was surgeon general in the mid-1980s, put himself at odds with the Reagan White House by saying that he supported a bill banning cigarette advertising and promotion, but he didn't support abolishing tobacco sales while in office.

	Surgeon Encyclopedia Article, Description, History and Biography @ Karr.net (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Although surgeons are now considered to be specialised physicians, the profession of surgeon and that of physician have different historical roots.
		In the United Kingdom, surgeons are distinguished from physicians by being referred to as "Mister." This tradition has its origins in the 18th century, when surgeons were barber-surgeons and did not have a degree (or indeed any formal qualification), unlike physicians, who were doctors with a university medical degree.
		By the beginning of the 19th century, surgeons had obtained high status, and in 1800, the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) in London began to offer surgeons a formal status via RCS membership.

	Augmentation Mammoplasty
		You may want to ask your surgeon for a copy of the manufacturer's insert that comes with the implant he or she will use -- just so you are fully informed about it.
		Your surgeon should also explain the type of anesthesia to be used, the type of facility where the surgery will be performed, and the costs involved.
		Some surgeons may use a local anesthesia, combined with a sedative to make you drowsy, so you'll be relaxed but awake, and may feel some discomfort.

	American College of Surgeons: Statement on the surgeon and HIV infection (ST-13-Revised May 2004)
		Surgeons should know their HIV serologic status in the same way that they would want to have knowledge of any other disease about which they may have personal concerns.
		Based on data in the current literature, HIV-infected surgeons may continue to practice and perform invasive procedures and surgical operations unless there is clear evidence that a significant risk of transmission of infection exists through an inability to meet basic infection control procedures, or the surgeon is functionally unable to care for patients.
		Surgeons should know their own status for HIV infection, as they would be knowledgeable about any other disease or illness that is of concern to them personally.

	The Civil War Army Surgeon
		Some of these physicians and surgeons had already achieved great fame and success in the practice of their profession, and their enrolment for the assistance of their country gave powerful incentive to similar action on the part of others of equal or less prominence.
		Moreover, it was the custom for the surgeons to undertake the most severe operations at the front, often under fire, under conditions in which even a pretense of surgical cleanliness could not have been maintained, even if the knowledge of the time bad been sufficient to cause it to be attempted.
		In fact, toward the end of the war the best surgeons in the country were probably those with the military forces, and the admirable results which they frequently achieved bear evidence, not only of their accurate anatomical knowledge and surgical dexterity but of the amount of injury and infection which the human organism can resist.

	ACS :: What Every Breast Surgeon Should Know
		Sentinel lymph node biopsy is one area where women and their surgeons must be sure they understand what is and is not known about the procedure, Pass said.
		The breast surgeons' group is conducting follow-up on women who have used a newer type of partial radiation therapy, called MammoSite, in an effort to get more answers about which patients might be good candidates and what their long-term outcomes might be.
		Although surgeons deal with different treatment issues than medical oncologists, Pass said breast surgeons should also be aware of recent studies that suggest a new class of drugs called aromatase inhibitors (anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane) may be better than tamoxifen for preventing recurrences of breast cancer.

		Having established initially that this particular surgeon won't operate but another one might, SGRT would lead us to ask a question like What is different or unusual about this reluctant surgeon?" to the person posing the problem.
		We may think the surgeon is a deluded man. Perhaps he knows the boy slightly and is lying because he doesn't want to operate.
		In the surgeon problem, focusing on the inconsistency causes us to give equal weight to the man driving the car as to the surgeon.

	Do you need to know how to choose - pick a Plastic Surgeon? (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The surgeon should have had training that covered a wide spectrum of surgery in order to be able to recognize complications or potential complications and have the medical judgement to act early so that safety is maintained and the end result is not affected.
		By choosing a plastic surgeon who is certified by the ABPS, a patient can be assured that the doctor has graduated from an accredited medical school and completed at least five years of additional residency- usually three years of general surgery (or its equivalent) and two years of plastic surgery.
		If you've obtained your surgeon's name from a good source, checked his or her credentials, are satisfied with your initial consultation, and have realistic expectations for the surgery, chances are very good that you'll be happy with the outcome of your plastic surgery.

	Liposuction - Dr Morello in Westchester – Cosmetic Plastic Surgery - Plastic Surgery Westchester, Facelift, ...
		Liposuction, also known as suction-assisted lipectomy, is a surgical vacuuming of fat beneath the surface of the skin.
		This has led to many non-plastic surgeons such as dermatologists, gynecologists, and others advertising their services for liposuction, sometimes with little or no experience and training.
		I believe that this is the strongest reason that most patients prefer to have a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
