I am interested in surgery but know very little about it or where to get started. Is there a good resources to teach me the basics of surgery?

Then how do you know you’re interested? Shadow in surgery, talk to attendings/residents and then go from there if you’re still interested.

if you value personal life think again

Or employment. Or not doing endless training. Or living in your desired location. 

*surgery itself is great but almost everything else about it sucks. Don't say you weren't warned if you go down the surgery route.

How do I become the best plastic surgeon

Like, the best evar?  Like, going on Oprah?  Like, being known as Dr. Firstname, with no last name (like Madonna, Hippocrates, and Pele)

Dunno.  You're on your own for that one.

If you want to be a pretty decent plastic surgeon -- read a lot, spend a lot of time in the OR, round before the team rounds, don't date or get married, and hope you're lucky when you finish PGY5...
