The primary purpose of this book is to help rural GP's successfully perform practical plastic surgery in emergency situations. The book then goes on to explain when and why it may be prudent to transfer care to a specialist plastic surgeon. By providing greater knowledge and awareness, "Practical Plastic Surgery for Nonsurgeons" ultimately aims to ensure that the quality of life of patients in rural areas, or areas without access to reconstructive surgeons, is significantly improved.
