“Shorter than book longer than a full review”
Well sociopolitically, economically and historically there has been a neglect of SOUTHERN, likewise for ankle & foot- although I am doing Trauma cases frequently that too involving many foot & ankle fractures, I have seen issue problems on part of surgeons and patients too. I too am confused in many cases with no one to guide me.
So, considering this, I decided to join this fellowship which had many inherent advantages, Firstly, it was ONLINE – don’t have to leave my place of work, secondary- reordering is available so no constraint of timings thirdly, it had an on-time WhatsApp group in which in touch with great surgeons for lifetime last but not the least was the cadaveric workshop conducted at RAMAIAH MEDICAL COLLEGE, in which I get the opportunity to meet the great & energetic teacher Dr Rajiv shah. He helped us not only to revise the whole course in a short time but provided a great opportunity to practice hands-on cadavers by inviting competent expertise in foot and ankle surgery.
I am extremely grateful to Dr Rajiv shah & all the teaching faculty for conducting such a great workshop, thanks to the organising staff who had taken and proving an excellent video streaming facility for all the cadaveric courses.
This quote expertly suits Dr Rajiv Shah sir
“A TEACHER AFFECT ETERNITY; HE CAN NEVER TELL WHERE HIS INFLUENCE STOPS”

Dr Rajiv shah sir,
You are the best teacher in the world, you are so kind and down to earth person. I have learnt the basics of foot and ankle from your classes, sir.
Thank you so much, sir.

Respected sir,
It has been a pleasure and lucky, that I got an opportunity to spend some time through this fellowship with the master of foot and ankle, I personally tea that than you love foot and ankle, foot and ankle love you. After this fellowship, I started living foot and ankle more than other specialities in orthopaedics. You are a great passionate teacher, your constant push and guidance towards the learning made the fellowship a great experience. Last couple of months was a great academic feast, enjoyed the learning. I try my level best to implicate the learnt knowledge and passionate teaching from you in my clinical practice.
Thank you.

To, Dr Rajiv Shah sir,
Sir, I cannot thank you enough for all the pain you took in arranging such an extensive virtual fellowship program. The last few months were eye-opening for me. If I had a teacher like you during my post-graduation, I would have benefitted many folds. Each of your sessions was in-depth and to the point. Every question I asked was answered by you in a very detailed manner. I felt blessed to have interacted with you and I feel very lucky to be touched by you. Looking forward to such blessings in future at conferences. I would be very happy to visit your hospital to improve my skills and increase my knowledge. May you stay healthy always.
Thank you for everything.

Thanks a lot dear Dr Rajiv Shah Sir,
It was a great experience to get mentored from the Master himself.
Your attention to details I think is phenomenal.
Learned about Foot and Ankle focusing on all the minutest details from you.
I hope this is a big step towards practicing Foot and Ankle in my region.
I hope to continue learning from you sir.
Thanks for the opportunity and the pains that you took to teach all of us.

Thank you so much Sir. This course has been a real blessing. I’m so grateful for teaching me Foot and Ankle. It has really opened up many dimensions in my management of patients. I hope to meet you in person at the Cadaver workshop.

Last I would like to thank OrthoTV’s Dr Neeraj and Dr Ashok for this great opportunity.

Dear respected sir
The fellowship was really eye opener for a person like me .
My generation was not well versed with foot and ankle.
Thanks for all the teaching and learning opportunities.
Off course I could not physically virtually attend.
But I went through videos.
The reason behind my absence is my health and inconvenient time for me.
I am looking forward for physical participation in cadaveric course. I have already paid my fees . .
Kudos and regards to Rajiv sir.

Blessed to know you more sir.
Had heard so much about you and been following your webinars.
Interaction with you has given me new wings, feels like I have sir’s back.
The confidence in seeing the Foot and Ankle pathologies has definitely improved after hearing and learning from you.
Looking forward to get your blessings during the workshop.
Thank you for all your efforts sir.

Sir indeed your passion towards teaching the subject and through your experience i am blessed to take one step ahead in my career practice , i was not ready to do foot and ankle as my whole and sole practice , but now can stand firm to start my new passion in foot and ankle just because of your easy teaching program. I feel more and more students should learn from you to become the best foot and ankle surgeon . Thank you Dr Ashok shyam and Dr Neeraj bijlani sir to take initiative in online fellowship program .
Thank you all my colleague who are already practicing in foot and ankle I could learn from you guys too .

Thank you so much sir. I am blessed to learn from you and feel great as your student. This fellowship really enhances my basic foot and ankle knowledge. Most of the time i can’t able to physically attend the class because of sunday opd clinic coincide with class time but the recorded videos helps me alot. Saying a thank you will be too less for your dedication in this field. At last thank you so much again.

Thank you so much sir. Words cannot describe your passion for teaching. We have seen many teachers at various stages of our career you are the most inspirational one. Your way of understanding the subject and able to so clearly explain to juniors like us is commendable. It’s really a privilege to be a part of this wonderful fellowship journey.

Sir, I cannot tell you how desperately I was looking forward to getting some indepth training in Foot and Ankle speciality.
And I being a practicing Surgeon with my own set up, it is really difficult to go for long duration fellowships.
And suddenly when I saw the update about this fellowship, I immediately knew that it was like some divine intervention.
And getting to learn it from the Master himself was nothing less than a dream come true.
This video series of sessions with you is like treasure trove for me.
Your energy is contagious sir, your passion for teaching and passing on the knowledge to future generations is commendable.
Sir, I am truly blessed on recieving this opportunity to learn from you and to get to interact with you.
And I do surely know this won’t be the end, it is the beginning of learning Foot and Ankle from you..
I hope to remain your student for life.
Thanks a lot for everything sir.

I am obliged for the opportunity to do fellowship under Dr. Rajiv Shah sir. He has vast knowledge about the subject and also pours the same in his fellows. He is very good at academics and loves to teach each and every minor details about clinical examination as well as surgeries. I enjoyed his company as well as learned a lot.

Dear Dr. Rajiv Shah Sir,
First of all, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking me as your student for this fellowship program. this fellowship has allowed me to think that as a foot & ankle surgeon, I have started nothing clinical features & signs that I would have likely missed if not for your teachers. it has helped me a lot to develop that insight in foot & ankles which has interested me a lot since my residency I feel so humbled & grateful to have got to learn the nuands of it from an orthopedic giant like you, and it delights me that I can receive advice from you for the challenging cases that I come across in practice. I look forward to you as a mentor.

Blessed!
