Westmead Hospital

We have also collaborated with Westmead Hospital, University of Sydney in this mission of training young physicians. This helps us immensely in many ways. Their excellent faculty guides us in running this fellowship program. This ensures we meet the highest standards. It also gives great credibility to our course and attracts bright physicians to apply for a position. The fellows will be posted as observers at “the center for transplant and renal medicine”, Westmead Hospital, Sydney University for a period of 1 and 1/2 months.

This will be after they complete 1 year of hands on training at Bombay Hospital. Here they will get an overview of the functioning of a world class Nephrology center in all aspects of Nephrology. They will also get to see how research is conducted in a center which is internationally acclaimed for this in nephrology and transplant. This posting will give a much needed finesse to the training.
