To be ABPS board-certified, a physician must meet these tough requirements: The plastic surgeon must graduate from an accredited school. Complete a combination of at least five years of general surgery and plastic surgery residency training. They then must pass a comprehensive oral examination given by ABPS plastic surgeons. They then have to wait a year, if they pass, and then take the written exams. It does not stop there. After receiving there Board Certification, they have to regularly attend medical education courses, and have to adhere to a strict code of ethics.  more
