The ever increasing tribe of women surgeons in the region. When we started in 2003, there were a handful of them. Now we have a representation in all subspecialities. Although breast surgery was always dominated by women, but with time ambition and skill set has led to the women making a mark in liver and pancreas surgery, advanced colorectal surgery, bariatric surgery and making great strides in abdominal wall reconstruction or hernia surgery as well. A note in the era of 2024 and beyond. Hone the skills In a specialized field and be a master of it. You can be good in any thing you like to be, but be well trained and knowledgeable. That is what that counts. There is no looking back. #womeninsurgery #breastsurgery #pancreaticsurgery #laparoscopicsurgery #colorectalsurgery.
