ISKSAA DELHI FELLOWSHIP 2022
Duration - 3 months (1.01.2023 - 31.03.2023) under Dr. Pushpinder Singh Bajaj
It gives me immense pleasure in writing this testimonial about ISKSAA Arthroscopy and Sports Medicine fellowship. I am extremely grateful to Dr. P.S Bajaj sir for giving me the opportunity to learn and hone my knowledge and skill in Arthroscopy and Sports medicine.
Bajaj sir is an avid teacher with exceptional clinical and surgical skills. During my fellowship I got to assist him in a variety of cases including knee & shoulder arthroscopies, knee arthroplasty and trauma cases. Sir’s technique of Aperture Fixation of ACL reconstruction is one of the best I have witnessed and makes it look so easy. He explains every step of the surgery in detail and is kind enough to clarify doubts during the surgery. His OT time management and team work is commendable. The OT team is well trained to carry out the entire process meticulously to perfection.
I also had the opportunity to sit in the outpatient clinic and follow up patients which helped me strengthen my knowledge about the rehab protocols. He has an incredible team of physiotherapists under whom I gained first hand experience about physiotherapy protocols for various orthopaedic conditions. Witnessing sir’s interaction with patients helped me fine tune my clinical acumen and also got to witness a variety of outpatient procedures like intra articular injections , joint aspirations and casting techniques.
During the fellowship I got to attend the 2nd ISIC knee preservation course at the ISIC, Delhi and interacted with the stalwarts of knee arthroscopy from around the country.
It has been a great journey over the past 3 months where I made new friends, discovered new places and acquired surgical and clinical skills which i can carry forward in my future practise.
My sincere thanks to Dr. P.S Bajaj sir and his entire team for making it memorable and taking good care of me. The icing on the cake was the farewell at the end of the fellowship.
I hope ISKSAA will continue providing such fellowships to young orthopaedic surgeons.
Regards,
Dr. Nitin Sunku
