Open Access Surgery Journals

A list of Open Access Surgery journals for you to publish your manuscript in

Surgery is medical specialty

A journal article is 'open access' when there are no financial, legal or technical barriers to accessing it - that is to say when anyone can read, download, distribute, print, and search it.

Our team made this list of Surgery Open Access journals with the aim to help you to decide where to publish your Surgery manuscript.
We made this list which includes all the high-impact factor Surgery journals that might be relevant to your field of study.Rather than displaying just the most relevant Surgery journals, we have made an in-depth list of all the open accesss Surgery journals. Use our different columns — number of papers, number of citations, and relevance — to find the best Surgery venue for your manuscript.

The DOAJ columns refers to the The Directory of Open Access Journals, a list of open access journals, maintained by Infrastructure Services for Open Access.
There are certain criteria a journal must meet to be indexed by DOAJ, and thus inclusion in the DOAJ index is seen by scholars as a mark of quality.


All the open access Surgery journals in this list are indexed in OA.mg.
If you spot any mistakes in this table of Surgery OA journals, don’t hesitate to send us an email.
