The Northwest Society of Plastic Surgeons is a regional plastic surgery society. We serve a 350 physician membership from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, British Columbia, Alaska, and Hawaii.

We welcome applications for membership from interested candidate plastic surgeons. Please see our Membership section.

Mark your calendars: our next annual meeting, our 50th (!), will be at the Marriott Ihilani on Oahu. The dates of the meeting are February 18 - 23, 2012. Dr. Aysel Sanderson is President and Program Director.

Our recent annual scientific meeting, our 49th, was held at Sun Valley. Great times, great weather, quality papers, wonderfully attended.

All plastic surgeons and invited healthcare professionals are welcome to attend. There is truly something of interest for everyone at our annual meeting.

Spouses and kids are also well-taken care of at the meeting sites.
