What do people think of doing an ortho residency and then going into plastics?
An opinion of a plastics doc that I know said that the best hand surgeons out there either are ortho trained with a plastics hand surgery fellowship or plastics trained with an ortho hand fellowship.
Also, is hand surgery turning into a not so in demand part of plastics/ortho? I suppose as the populace moves off the farm and out of the mill to a desk job you'll have less and less cases coming in from trauma.
What's the opinion out there?
