It remains a small city surrounded by hundreds of square miles of beautiful and rugged territory. That does not mean, however, that the city lacks cosmopolitan features. The University of Utah is headquartered there along with their medical school.
The plastic surgery division of Utah U's medical school has a long and venerable history. It was founded in 1967 by a physician recruited from Florida named Clifford Snyder. According to the school's web site, the plastic surgery department in its early years "developed an international reputation in mandibular distraction, microsurgery, hand reconstruction, treatment of venomous snake bite's."
You won't see that snake bite specialty at just any plastic surgery department in just any med school. You're still in the high desert regardless of the banks, office buildings and churches anchoring Salt Lake City.
