When you are choosing a plastic surgeon, you are looking for a highly qualified one like Dr. Ralston who has certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. In order to be board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, one must graduated from a accredited medical school, do internship and residency training in general surgery. Complete an approved residency in plastic surgery, pass extensive written and oral exams which include review of all cases done by that surgeon in the past year. This is an incredibly long and tedious process taking a minimum of 7+ years after graduation from medical school.
