Program overview

The Fellowship in Robotic Gynecologic Surgery is a three-phase advanced training program that spans 12 months, involving three-month rotations in both Hospital A and B.The Fellowship in Robotic Gynecologic Surgery is an intensive 12-month advanced training program, which includes 3 months of training in each hospital (A and B). The programme is a blend of structured online learning, simulation class training, live surgical observerships, console training, and expert mentorship to develop high-level skill in robotic hysterectomy, myomectomy, endometriosis surgery, pelvic reconstruction, gynecologic oncology procedures, and fertility-preserving surgery. The participants are provided with a comprehensive exposure to the latest robotic surgical platforms, operative planning, patient safety protocols and evidence based surgical techniques, and are able to perform complex gynecologic procedures with precision, efficiency and confidence in accordance with international standards of MRI guided minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.
