Title: Desired characteristics of a potential oral and maxillofacial surgery practice associate: a Connecticut survey response. Author: Hinic P, Johnson MP, Kelly JP. Journal: J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2012 Feb; 70(2):492-7. PubMed ID: 21549477. Abstract: PURPOSE: The goal of the survey was to identify the desired characteristics of recently graduated oral surgeons entering private practice in Connecticut and compare these results to a similar study conducted earlier in New Jersey. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An anonymous survey was mailed to all active members of the Connecticut Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons in February 2010. The response rate for the survey was 63%, with 69 of 110 surveys returned. CONCLUSIONS: The most valued characteristics of a new associate included board certification; clinical competence in dentoalveolar surgery, anesthesia, and implant surgery; and personal character. These results paralleled the results of the New Jersey survey.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
