At completion of the course, students have obtained a better understanding and a balanced perspective of plastic surgery.

Physician Observerships
The Department of Plastic Surgery, as well as UT Southwestern, has an intense interest in and commitment to sharing clinical expertise with colleagues both nationally and globally who want to spend time observing the advanced plastic surgery clinical services provided here. Observers are defined as individuals who want to establish an uncompensated association with UT Southwestern for a defined period of time, not to exceed three months without written approval of the Associate Dean for Medical Education.
The Department of Plastic Surgery is actively involved in the education of medical students, residents, and fellows. We also offer formal observerships that allow us to share our clinical expertise with physician colleagues.
