Pandemic is almost over. I remember the days before pandemic. Teaching and learning were a part of NObesity. We use to conduct regular workshop for aspiring surgeons and attend conferences to teach and learn too. Then switched to virtual platform. One to one interaction was not that great. Here NObesity starts again workshops for trainees. We received fellows from Bangalore, Mumbai and Surat- performed multiple surgeries with one O one interaction. How to select a candidate for Bariatric procedure, to how to perform a safe surgery to management of complication- everything was discussed in great details. It was great to interact with senior surgeons and finding a solution for there queries. In the process our thinking also broadens up. Thanks to my TEAM NObesity in organizing this workshop on a very short notice.
All patients operated are discharged and are doing good. Looking forward to more these types of workshops were we can teach and in process learn too.
