The International College of Surgeons, founded in 1935 by Dr. Max Thorek, is a global organization dedicated to promoting international understanding, goodwill, and the advancement of the art and science of surgery. With members in over 100 countries, the College brings together surgeons of all nationalities, races, and creeds to foster collaboration and peaceful development in the field of surgery.
As a non-governmental and apolitical organization, the International College of Surgeons is committed to inclusivity and diversity, standing in stark contrast to the racism, religious, and ethnic hatreds prevalent in the world today. In official relations with the World Health Organization, the College serves as a scientific community that upholds its founding principles of collegiality and cooperation, working towards sustainable development and cost-effective humanitarian surgery.
