Hey, I'm Joshua T. Osborne

In 2015, I said goodbye to 16-hour days and hauling boxes up and down stairs for a living (I was a mover). I became a full-time entrepreneur, and I made my money by helping business owners make money.

They had a need, and because of Virtual Tool Booths., I could fill it. Through the methods taught by my all-time favorite course and mentor, I created a 6-figure business in roughly 6 months. I could retire today (at 37) and never have to worry about money ever again.

Because of Virtual Tool Booths., I was able to quit my job, work online with flexible hours, and move to the mountains (Colorado Springs if you’re wondering)...all while helping real people improve their businesses, incomes, and lives!

For most folks, a college degree is the biggest bill of their lives. I never went to college. So I don’t have any massive bills or giant debts hanging over my head. My greatest education came from Virtual Tool Booths. (for a tiny fraction of what college costs) and it’s the bill that pays ALL the bills - a hundred times over!

I really wanted to share this secret weapon with others, so they could change their lives the way I changed mine. So if you’re not 100% sure about college, or only researching to make someone else happy, Virtual Tool Booths. might be a better option for you.

What does a plastic surgeon do?

Plastic surgeons are physicians that perform a variety of reconstructive and cosmetic procedures. They often perform delicate and precise procedures such as skin grafts, musculoskeletal reconstruction, tissue transfers, and mastectomies, breast augmentation, face-lifts, chemical peels, collagen injections, and sexual reassignment surgeries. They work with many different patients such as those that have suffered from birth abnormalities, car accidents, burns, cancer, and other injuries. Plastic surgeons carefully plan their incisions and make sure they line up with natural skin lines and folds.

What kind of training does a plastic surgeon need?

Plastic surgeons must complete a bachelor degree and attend medical school to obtain the Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree. Medical school education focuses on learning all of the aspects of the human body, patient care, and medical conditions. After completion of medical school, plastic surgeons must pursue residencies and fellowships in plastic surgery. They visit a variety of healthcare facilities such as hospitals, clinics, and private practices to learn an overview of the specialty and gain hands-on experience. Depending on the program and subspecialty, plastic surgeons may complete an additional one to two years of residency.

All states require plastic surgeons to be licensed. Licensing requirements include graduating from an accredited medical school, completing 1 to 7 years of graduate medical education, and passing a licensing examination. Many plastic surgeons gain board certification from the American Board of Medical Specialists (ABMS).

What are the prospects for a career as a plastic surgeon?

Employment of all physicians and surgeons is projected to grow faster than average for all professions, increasing 14% from 2006 to 2016 (1). The increased demand for reconstructive and cosmetic surgery will drive job growth.

Job prospects are expected to be very good especially for plastic surgeons with extensive experience and for those with specialties. Job openings will also stem from the need to replace plastic surgeons that retire, transfer, or leave the field for other reasons.

How much do plastic surgeons make?

As of October 2009, plastic surgeons with less than 1 year experience earn average annual salaries between $78,611 and $297,476. Those with 1 to 4 years experience earn average annual salaries between $99,889 and $250,380 (2).

A career as a plastic surgeon is a great choice for individuals interested in serving patients and improving their appearance and function through reconstructive and cosmetic procedures. Plastic surgeons must have excellent bedside manner, be quick on their feet, and be able to effectively work independently as well as part of a team. Creativity, detail-orientation, good eye-hand coordination, and excellent communication are all essential qualities of plastic surgeons.
