UEG Week Surgical Learning area 2019

The UEG Surgical block, ESSAT, is continuing the successes of the previous 3 years of surgical learning by adding yet another 4th course (and even the potential of a fifth course to be confirmed).

The program is aimed to offer surgeons a true value-add opportunity of significant hands on training by experienced and recognized faculty with the potential of certification and providing a trajectory towards specific UEMS diplomas in the various aspects of digestive surgery.

In addition, it is also tailored to stimulate a multi-disciplinary approach linking the surgical perspective to the full spectrum of GI disease management.

Hands on training | case discussions | expert instruction and more.
