What do plastic surgeons do?
The image of plastic surgery as portrayed by the media is of concern to all plastic surgeons. In order to assess knowledge about the specialty, a questionnaire was devised and given to five groups of participants: general practitioners, medical students, nurses, plastic surgical out-patient attendees, and the general public. The results revealed that general practitioners, nurses and medical students in the Cambridge area are, on the whole, knowledgeable about the role of plastic surgery. However, the general public are not so well educated and 23.7% of them could not think of five conditions treated by plastic surgeons, and felt that burns and cosmetic problems were the commonest conditions dealt with. Improved liaison with general practitioners, other specialties and more teaching of undergraduates, coupled with more effective promotion of the skills on offer might permit better use to be made of the specialty.
