I, Dr. Rohitmalhotra, am thankful to Dr. Pushpinder Singh and Dr. LalitMaini for selecting me for the Isksaa Ganga Travelling fellowship in Arthroscopy and Arthroplasty. I attended Ganga Hospital, Coimbatore for 2 weeks in February 2020.

The fellowship was under Dr. S. R. Sundararajan who is mainly an arthroscopy and foot and ankle surgeon but also does Arthroplasty every now and then. He was so nice and welcoming to me and under his guidance I observed a variety of knee/ shoulder arthroscopies such as double row rotator cuff repair, bankart repair, Acl reconstruction with itbtenodesis, Mcl repair, meniscus repair- inside out and all inside, Ankle arthrodesis.

I am also grateful to Dr. N. Rajkumar and Dr. Dhanashekhar Raja to allow me to observe various knee and hip Arthroplasty cases that they operated upon. I was impressed by the sheer volume of cases and handling by OT staff and quality surgical techniques that were used in difficult primary complex and revision arthroplasties.

All the mentors answered each and every question patiently and I finished my fellowship gaining immense knowledge in my sub-specialities of interest.

Thank you for giving me this opportunity.

Regards
