Fellow Candidate's Experience:

Dr Shakib

I completed a 9-month fellowship in Arthroplasty and Arthroscopy, but unexpectedly gained extensive experience in Trauma as well. This program exceeded my expectations and transformed me into a confident orthopaedic surgeon.

The hands-on experience was unparalleled, with 45 total knee replacements performed independently. I also successfully completed over 15 total hip replacements, honing my skills and building confidence.

The arthroscopy exposure was immense, with numerous opportunities to assist and perform procedures independently. I gained expertise in various arthroscopic techniques and developed a deeper understanding of joint anatomy and pathology.

I also had the privilege of assisting in rare and complex cases, including:

– Trapezius transfer for rotator cuff repair
– Meniscus transplant
– Reverse shoulder Arthroplasty

Ironically, I learned more during this fellowship than during my entire Master’s degree program. My mentor’s guidance and feedback were invaluable, helping me refine my surgical skills and decision-making.

This fellowship was a turning point in my career, and I’m forever grateful for the experience.

A 6-month fellowship with Dr. Jagadish Surannavar was a life-changing experience for me. What typically takes 18 months to learn was strategically condensed into a short time with immense first-hand experiences. It gave me the confidence to start performing all kinds of arthroscopic procedures independently at a very early stage in my career. His way of working and principles are at par with the latest advancements, and his teaching methods make it easy for beginners to master the art of arthroscopy and joint replacement.
