Fellowship directors are recognized authorities in the teaching and practice of facial plastic surgery.
"Before the days of internships and residency programs, doctors learned through one-on-one mentorship. It's the best way to truly become an expert in something. I hope all my fellows become fellowship directors one day and continue this wonderful tradition." – Dr. Maas
