Mission & Vision
Where the Association is going, what it exists to do, and the values that govern how it works.
Our mission and vision
To advance the practice of plastic surgery in Bahrain, and to protect the people who rely on it.
Our mission is to raise and maintain the standard of plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery in the Kingdom through education, professional standards and research, and to be a trustworthy source of information for patients and the public.
Our vision is a Kingdom where every patient who needs plastic or reconstructive surgery is treated by a properly qualified surgeon, in a properly equipped setting, and can find out for themselves that this is so.
The values behind the work
- Patient safety before everything else
- Honesty about what surgery can and cannot do
- Teaching the next generation of surgeons
- Evidence, audit and open discussion of results
