Survey finds SAS surgeons 'indispensable but disillusioned'

In order to obtain more detailed information about the issues facing staff and associate specialist (SAS) surgeons, the SAS committee at the College undertook a pilot online survey of surgeons concerned in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, This survey is expected to help the College to identify the needs of SAS surgeons and offer them support. The findings of the survey will be used as a basis for the SAS committee's work plan for 2008–2009.
