Recognising that there is a potential need for a more formalised approach to post-fellowship bariatric training, OSSANZ have adopted the following strategy:
- Recognition of positions that offer post-fellowship bariatric surgery training according to the OSSANZ standards, based upon RACS training standards
- Collaborative involvement with ANZGOSA training posts
- Recognised post-fellowship positions will be advertised on the OSSANZ website and Surgical News
- Interested fellows will apply directly to, and be appointed by, the institution
- OSSANZ will offer workshops to fellows throughout the year covering:
- Basic and advanced surgical skills
- Assessment and management of bariatric surgical patients
- Management of complications of bariatric surgery
- Presentation skills
