The ASCFS Legends Project

ASCFS is creating a repository honoring our mentors and “Legends” through interviews that capture the insight and stories that have added so greatly to our discipline.

We are extremely grateful to our colleagues at the American Association of Plastic Surgery who have agreed to share already created videos of their ICONS in Plastic Surgery, who are also members of ASCFS.

Interviews of the following individuals can be found in the Members Only Area:

Dr. Milton Edgerton

Dr. Jack Hoopes
Dr. Henry Kawamoto
Dr. Donald R. Mackay
Dr. Paul Manson 		  Dr. Joseph McCarthy
