We are working on multiple programs to improve on your membership value. Our goal is to provide life long learning.
2023 American Foregut Society Robotics Mentorship Program
- For surgeons with moderate experience in foregut and some experience with the DaVinci robots. Must have commitment to developing expertise in both.
- A unique opportunity to participate in a mentored pathway to master foregut procedures using DaVinci robotic technology.
- All participants will follow a six-month curriculum under the guidance of a dedicated AFS mentor designed to help surgeons meet their goals of becoming proficient in robotic foregut surgery.
- The pathway will include in-person and remote case observations and proctoring, as well as advanced foregut courses offered through Intuitive.
- The mentees will have the opportunity to work with the same mentor surgeon throughout their learning curve/experience.
- Participants will work together to share learnings and build professional relationships throughout the curriculum and beyond.
