As you know there is a significant shortage of well trained Surgeons and OB/Gyns  to handle Minimal Access Procedures independently with confidence and care, especially  in our region.

We at SIMAS understand the main reason for reluctance in learning this futuristic technique is the fear of failure of the practicing surgeons and ob/gyns in mastering this apparently complicated and complex technique.

We at SIMAS  has simplified the whole learning process to a enjoyable 5 day packaged residential course with an out look to guide you through the various stages  of learning,  as well as its applications, empowering the aspirant with full confidence to handle all cases independently.

Practicing surgeons, Gynaecologists and Post Graduate students are the target group.

This course is designed to impart training in basic laparoscopic skills and knowledge in theoretical aspects of minimal access surgery. This consists of Endo trainer sessions, didactic lectures, wet labs and OT sessions. Sessions give special attention to setting up of basic laparoscopic units. Theory part will be handled by expert faculties in this field. Endo trainer sessions will be handled by Mr. Prakash Babu, a veteran with more than two decades experience in Endo training. He is a trainer for many renowned minimal access surgeons in south India.

The lectures, presentations and OT sessions will be handled by eminent faculties under the leadership of Dr SK Ajaiyakumar.

This academic programme is a well structured course with Endo training sessions, wet lab and OT exposure.

The centre routinely performs 80-90 cases per month including Basic ,advanced laparoscopic procedures, and Bariatric surgery procedures.
