ACSOffers Peer Support for Surgeon Stressors

June 10, 2025

The ACSoffers Colleague Connection, an exclusive member benefit for surgeons to seek guidance and support from trained Fellows who have experience in patient care, practice management, education, wellness, and other areas related to surgical practice.

No matter where you are in your career journey, Fellows who have faced similar challenges and shared experiences can lend an ear and help guide you to resources and networks through peer support for responding to an adverse patient event, transitions in your career, preparing for an exam, or more.

How it Works

  1. Participants are connected with a surgeon who provides a listening ear in a completely confidential and safe conversation.
  2. The connection is intended to be a one- to two-session exchange to discuss a particular problem, provide advice on an issue, and/or offer additional direction.
  3. All matches are confidential and non-binding.
