UNLEARNING, LEARNING & RELEARNING!


A person who graduated yesterday and stops studying today is uneducated tomorrow.

Human beings have the thirst to learn new things and take up new challenges. But when you are thirsty, it’s too late to dig a well. Not knowing is bad, not willing to learn is worst. Innovative developments in the field of medical technology, sophisticated new treatment methods and a healthy interest in acquiring new knowledge have given rise to an enormous and ever-increasing demand for further and advanced training. Training is an essential component to promote safe practices in Laparoscopic and minimally invasive surgery.

Technology may have a leading edge, but do we have the technology edge? It takes courage to walk the cutting edge of technology.

Learning medicine (or surgery for that matter) is not fundamentally different from learning anything else. If one had one hundred hours in which to learn to ride a horse or to speak in public, one might profitably spend perhaps one hour in being told to do it, four hours watching a teacher do it, and the remaining ninety five hours in practice, at least with close supervision, later under general oversight. Olympic Sliver medal winner Major Rathore has rightly said, “Situations have a way of changing. Don’t expect help. Help yourself. The day you help yourself, it’s your first step to success.”

Global hospital is committed to advancing Laparoscopic Surgery through technology, technique and education. We are starting our Global Laparoscopic Learning courses the details of which are seen overleaf.

In order to master the future—keep yourself fit for the future.
With warmest regards.
