Course Overview

Minimal Invasive Surgery (MIS) has revolutionized the field of surgery by reducing patient recovery time, minimizing complications, and improving clinical outcomes. With the rise of laparoscopic and robotic-assisted techniques, MIS is now considered the gold standard for many surgical procedures in oncology, gastrointestinal surgery, gynecology, and general surgery.

The Fellowship in Minimal Invasive Surgery at HCG is designed to provide surgeons with advanced training in laparoscopic and robotic surgical techniques. The program focuses on hands-on operative exposure, clinical decision-making, patient safety, and cutting-edge technology. Fellows are trained in oncologic and non-oncologic procedures, gaining experience across multiple specialties where MIS is rapidly evolving.

Conducted at HCG’s advanced surgical centers, fellows benefit from expert mentorship, simulation-based training, high-volume surgical exposure, and interdisciplinary learning. The fellowship ensures that participants become skilled, confident, and future-ready surgeons capable of delivering precision-based surgical care.

By joining this fellowship, you will be part of the next generation of surgeons driving innovation and excellence in minimally invasive techniques worldwide.
