“I was a fellow in AK for 3 months. From my career standpoint that was one of the best decisions I ever made. The volume and diversity of surgeries, well established techniques, patient handling – preoperatively, from arriving to the Operative room, getting anesthesia and all the way throughout the surgery to postoperative recovery – was extremely educational for me. In addition, seeing how to deal with complications when they happen and how skillfully the staff best approached and controlled them, was tremendous experience I could not have acquired anywhere else. Simply put ….there is just no place like AK; where a visiting surgeon can get all that knowledge and skill in relatively short time; be part of the team – not just as an observer but as participating, scrubbed surgeon – is an experience that should last for life . AK has a great team of world renowned and leading plastic surgeons that share with every visitor all their knowledge and experience on daily basis and in exceptional and friendly manner. I would highly recommend this fellowship to anybody that may need just a little initiative or reassurance in starting the solo career in aesthetic surgery.”

“I am a Plastic surgeon from Italy and after my specialization I worked abroad in different settings. In 2014 I joined the Akademiklinken trough the 1 year fellowship programme. Here I had the opportunity to learn from the leading experts in the field and to be involved in research activities and clinical sessions. The huge amount of surgical cases that I have been exposed too along with the friendly environment make the Akademiklinken fellowship a unique experience and one of the best in the world. I am very thankful not only to the senior surgeons for their friendly mentorship, but also to all the staff that looked after me and made me fell at home.”

Colleagues and fellow doctors work together as a team.There are of course long working hours but you will participate in a huge number of surgeries of every aspect of Plastic Surgery for the face and body, beyond the textbooks.Akademikliniken’s famous “Breast Augmentation with implants” surgery is one of them.Akademikliniken’s environment is ideal for newcomers and for those who want to experience an original taste of Swedish culture, not to forget that living in Stockholm for a few months is an opportunity you shouldn’t miss.Being one of the “Ak fellows” boosted my career in the private sector and i strongly recommend this Fellowship Programme for every Plastic Surgeon.”
