Abstract

It must be stated that the broad specialties as well as the established subspecialties will continue to play a crucial role in maintaining the balance in medical practice and the importance of these basic services can never be undermined. [...] the rapid pace of globalization and economic upsurge in the recent years as well as technological advances have generated innovative treatment options viz. cosmetic surgery (plastic surgery), joint replacement surgery (orthopedic surgery), bariatric surgery (abdominal surgery) and so on.
