The purpose of an SAG Spine Fellowship is to provide additional and a more complete experience for trained orthopedic and neurosurgeons interested in going further in spinal surgery. Quality, consistency and academic qualifications are key to any fellowship program and we ensure our program achieves all of this.
The Fellows are mentored by select spine surgeons from the SAG Centres of Excellence at accredited, academic institutions in Gujarat. Each institution will bring unique aspects to the Fellowship experience depending upon the clinical focus and the expertise of the hosting surgeon. Special interests of the Fellows will be taken into consideration by the host institution as well, resulting in a complete and well balanced spinal experience. The host centre will ensure that the Fellow becomes conversant in the principles, indications, planning, techniques and complications of simple to complex aspects of spinal surgery.
The Fellowship is a 3 months program and one teacher will be assigned as the Chief Guide, who will mentor and guide the student in his/her selected topic. The research topic will need to be specific and the research will have to be completed and submitted for publication before the Fellow is awarded the Fellowship Certificate. All accepted applicants are expected to be fully committed to the program.
