Check out what other people are saying

As tutors we look forward to being a part of this endeavour annually. It’s a privilege to have access to cadavers so we can support the development of our next generation of colleagues - an equally gratifying part of being a surgeon as the joy of treating patient! Steph’s hard work all year round is highly commendable! Hopefully, we’ll be there next year. Best wishes

The ASE remains one of few highly engaging courses with senior practising surgeon mentorship, excellent faculty to student ratio, covering a comprehensive general surgery curriculum. The course is valuable to the junior trainee as an introduction to tissue handling, instruments and procedures, and even more so to an advanced trainee preparing to present for the Fellowship examination. The location is equally as impressive as the ASE course in tropical Cairns using state of the art James Cook University facilities. Candidates will gain both procedurally relevant and academic growth, and establish networks and relationships with experienced faculty that has lasting impact to their professional growth.

“I highly recommend this course for the surgical trainee looking to further their skills & experience in less common but vitally important open surgical exposures of emergency general, trauma and vascular surgery”.

I attended this course as part of my preparation for the fellowship exam in general surgery and found it very worthwhile. The focus on surgical exposure made the content highly clinically relevant, both in terms of refreshing my knowledge of common procedures but also gaining a better understanding of the anatomy of operations that we do less frequently. It was also an enjoyable learning environment with engaging tutors and a good ratio of students to faculty meaning you were actively learning the whole time.
