Plastic surgery · revision · complex repair
Dr. Shaoliang Wang is Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital. He previously served as deputy chief of plastic and aesthetic surgery at Xinqiao Hospital, affiliated with Army Medical University, and brings more than two decades of tertiary-hospital surgical experience to his practice. He is the medical reviewer for the safety guidance published on this site.
Within this centre he is the surgical backstop and the judgement of last resort: revision of failed operations that began anywhere, excision of skin tumours, complex wound repair, and the decision that a plan should not proceed. That last decision is part of a safety system rather than a failure of one, and it is the reason the review process described on this site is run by the department rather than by the individual proposing the operation.

A hospital-based advantage
When a treatment from elsewhere needs correction, or a complication needs theatre-level care, the operating room, anaesthesiology and intensive care are already in the same building. Practicing inside a tertiary general hospital means that backstop is real rather than theoretical.
