Is the doctor credited by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons
of Canada and the appropriate American Board?

Specialists with this certification have completed a minimum of five years of
training following medical school, including an approved residency program in
plastic surgery or dermatology. After training, the specialist must pass
comprehensive oral and written exams for certification. FRCSC (Fellow of the
Royal College of Surgeons of Canada) and ABPS (American Board of Plastic
Surgery) certification indicate a surgeon's qualifications and expertise to perform
reconstructive and cosmetic plastic surgery of the face and the entire body.
FRCPC (Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Canada) and ABD
(American Board of Dermatologists) indicate a physician's qualifications in
dermatology and acknowledges him or her as a skin expert.

Does the plastic surgeon have appropriate hospital privileges?

Even if you are planning to have your surgery in your doctor's office or at a
surgery centre, it is important to find out if your surgeon has operating privileges
in an accredited hospital for the same procedure you would like to have
performed. Before granting privileges, hospital review committees evaluate a
surgeon's training and competency for specific procedures.

Is the specialist familiar with the latest procedures?

If there is an aesthetic procedure that you have heard about from another source,
such as a magazine article or television program, be sure to ask your doctor
about it. Doctors Sapra and Khanna can advise you on whether a specific
technique would be beneficial for you. If there are any problems or safety
concerns, they will be able to alert you to them.

Above all, you should feel comfortable enough to confide in your plastic surgeon
or dermatologist by thoroughly discussing your goals, expectations and
concerns. Together, Doctors Sapra and Khanna, and our staff will help you make
the choices that are right for you. Our most important job is to help you safely
and comfortably achieve both physical well-being and complete satisfaction with
your overall experience.
