Plastic Surgery Resident Education

Plastic Surgery Resident Education

The Resident Training Fund in the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery supports the education and growth of residents as they learn to provide life-changing care to patients across Utah and beyond.

Our residents treat everything from trauma and burns to craniofacial differences, cancer reconstruction, and complex microsurgery. They train in high-stakes settings where precision, creativity, and empathy are equally essential.

Why Your Support Matters:

  • Elevated Training
    Your gift allows residents to attend national conferences, participate in surgical workshops, and learn from visiting experts. These opportunities go beyond what our traditional training budget allows, and they are essential for keeping up with evolving surgical techniques.
  • Equitable Education
    Many advanced training opportunities come with travel and registration costs. The Resident Training Fund ensures that all residents can access these experiences, regardless of personal financial resources.
  • Long-Term Impact
    When you invest in our trainees, you are supporting future leaders in reconstructive surgery. Many of our graduates go on to serve communities, lead academic programs, and push the boundaries of surgical innovation.

Your generosity today helps prepare tomorrow’s surgeons, those who will restore function, confidence, and quality of life for countless patients.
