Abstract

Work-time constraints during surgical residency along with managing a private life usually take up the majority of the time of young surgeons. For many, work with a surgical society seems like something neither generally promising nor personally worthwhile, thus raising the question, why bother? This article sets out to show examples of the effects that surgical societies and young surgeon committees can have on surgery and residency training. Additionally, we highlight the personal side of being active on a committee. Our aim is to raise interest in participating in societal work by showing the rewarding general effects as well as personal benefits. While this article is based primarily on experiences made in Germany, we believe that aspects can be transferred to other medical systems.
