Surgical Competency Assessment

Surgical Competency Assessment is a process used to evaluate whether a surgeon has the necessary skills, knowledge, and judgment to perform specific procedures safely and effectively. It involves reviewing their technical abilities, decision-making, and experience through exams, direct observation, and case reviews. The goal is to ensure surgeons meet professional standards, maintain patient safety, and continue improving their practice. This assessment helps identify areas for growth and confirms that surgeons are capable of providing quality care independently.
