Would you be comfortable reading your clinical notes aloud in a courtroom?

It’s an uncomfortable question.

But it highlights something important: your clinical record isn’t just an administrative task. It can become a crucial account of what happened, what you considered, what you discussed and why you made a particular decision.

“Documented” doesn’t necessarily mean “defensible”.

Clear, contemporaneous and meaningful records matter.

So, next time you finish a busy clinic, take a moment before moving on to the next patient.

If someone read these notes years from now, would they understand why you made that decision?

A difficult case doesn’t always look difficult at the start.

Sometimes it’s an unexpected complication.

Sometimes it’s a patient who feels the result isn’t what they were promised.

Sometimes it’s a complaint that arrives months after you thought the case was finished.

And sometimes, it’s simply a decision you’re no longer sure you would make the same way today.

Being a surgeon doesn’t mean having every answer immediately.

It means knowing when to pause, review the situation and seek appropriate advice.

That’s one of the principles behind PRASIS. Because professional support matters most when things aren’t straightforward.

The operation went well. So why are you still worried?

Because good surgery is only part of the job.

Plastic surgeons work in a world where expectations can be high, outcomes can be subjective, and a perfectly reasonable clinical decision can still be questioned later. That’s where experience matters.

Not just experience in the operating theatre - but experience of the difficult conversations, the unexpected outcomes, the complaints and the medico-legal questions that can follow.

At PRASIS, we think being prepared for those moments is part of being a responsible surgeon.

Private healthcare demand continues to reach new highs. What does this mean for plastic surgeons?

According to the latest data from PHIN, UK private hospital admissions reached a record 953,000 in 2025—the fourth consecutive year of record growth. Admissions funded by private medical insurance reached their highest ever level, while self-pay demand also remained strong.

As more patients choose private healthcare for faster access and greater choice, specialist plastic surgeons are working in an increasingly active—and increasingly scrutinised—environment.

That makes expert medico-legal support and specialist contractual indemnity more important than ever.

At PRASIS, we're proud to provide protection (via our broker) designed by plastic surgeons, for plastic surgeons, helping our members practice with confidence as the private healthcare landscape evolves.

Did you know?

One of the biggest misconceptions about medical indemnity is that all policies offer the same level of protection. They don't.

PRASIS is a mutual organisation, owned and governed by its members, with one clear purpose: supporting the plastic surgery community. Members benefit from contractual indemnity for clinical negligence and public liability claims, access to 24/7 medico-legal advice from experienced doctors, and 25 years' run-off cover following permanent retirement or death.

When choosing indemnity, it's worth looking beyond the premium and understanding exactly what support you'll receive if you ever need it.
