About Us
ACS West Virginia functions through the coordinated activity of its individual members. It ensures the provision of high quality, evidence-based clinical practice, to strengthen support and improvement of the practice of surgery within the state. Our main emphasis is to bring up a revolution in the training of young surgeons in West Virginia itself and providing them with an enormous number of opportunities and the provision of advocacy for surgeons and patients.
This chapter is a dynamic organization that stands out in the fostering of chemical sciences within West Virginia. We are fortunate to have some of the best minds in the world of chemical sciences as our members; this not only comes up with excellent knowledge but also allows for unique networking opportunities. We feel that the promotion of discussion within this network can lead to more significant accomplishments.
