Arthroscopy & Sports Medicine Fellowship
Hands-on knee and shoulder arthroscopy training, one-to-one with practising consultants at high-volume centres in India.
Training mode
You join the arthroscopy and sports medicine unit as a fellow under an assigned senior consultant, one-to-one, for the full placement.
- In theatre: you scrub in on knee and shoulder lists from the start. Your hands-on role grows step by step, from patient positioning and portal placement to camera handling and diagnostic arthroscopy, as your consultant judges you ready.
- In clinic: you assess sports and joint injuries alongside your consultant, from clinical stability tests to MRI review and surgical planning.
- After surgery: you follow your patients on the ward and through their early rehabilitation plan.
- Academic: you take part in the department's case discussions.
Your actual level of involvement (observing, assisting, or performing steps under supervision) is decided by your supervising consultant, based on your previous experience, skills, competency, and overall performance.
