Checking a plastic surgeon in Romania
In Romania, a plastic surgeon should hold the specialty Chirurgie plastică, estetică și microchirurgie reconstructivă with a right to practise. Here's where to check it and what to look for.
The register must be checked by hand; we check societies and hospitals. Last checked 18 October 2026What the titles mean in Romania
Membership of the Romanian College of Physicians is compulsory to practise. Its register shows each doctor's status, specialties with right to practise, and any restrictions.
The register is captcha-protected, so it must be checked by hand. We check the major private hospital groups' directories as supporting evidence.
What we check for Romanian surgeons
Society membership is voluntary. Not being a member doesn't mean a surgeon isn't qualified.
How to check it yourself
- Search 'Surname, First name' on the Romanian register of doctors. Romanian register of doctors
- Open the card: the status should read 'Activ'.
- Check 'Chirurgie plastică' is listed with a right to practise, and look at 'Restrângeri'.

Every search on the register is protected by a captcha, so only a person can run it.
