ISKSAA BIOTEK 2015 FELLOWSHIP

It gives me immense pleasure to write this report about ISKSAA Biotek travelling fellowship at Ahmedabad, Gujrat. At the outset I would like to convey my heartfelt greetings and thanks to ISKSAA and its office bearers on giving me this opportunity to attend this highly academic and beneficial program. It was a one week fellowship program from 02.05.2016 to 07.05.2016 under the supervision of Dr Sanjay Trivedi and Dr Kalpesh Trivedi.

I experienced a good exposure of all kind of arthroscopic surgerieslike ACL reconstruction, Meniscal repair, Calcific tendinitis, MCL repair, Bankart repair and Rotator cuff repair.

Dr Sanjay Trivedi and Dr Kalpesh Trivedi were very enthusiastic in ensuring that I get accustomed to the newer setup. They provided individual attention to my learning procedure, taking personal care in teaching, supervising my learning and my comfortable stay during the fellowship. My discussions with them highlighted the common errors done in these surgeries and how to prevent them.

I would also like to thank Ms Shweta and the entire Biotek team for their coordination of dates, hasslefree travel and comfortable accommodation.

This description will be incomplete without mentioning my co-fellow Dr Kiran Makwana. Hesupported me in every manner and helped me in understanding certain techniques at which I was new at.

To summarize the overall experience, I gained a whole new set of skills, instructions, treatment protocols and knowledge which has helped me in becoming a more mature surgeon. I am looking forward to more such opportunities in future to enhance my surgical skills.

Warm regards
