Watching a conference on LapGuru is easier than attending it. LapGuru gives me the freedom to watch the conferences at my own convenience. I don’t have to worry about logistics. All I need is an Internet connection and a LapGuru membership!

As a surgeon I have been very interested in improving patient care through learning and essentially rehearsing the procedures before I treat my patients. LapGuru provides me with high quality surgery videos to learn and master critical skills to ensure procedural efficiency and promote quality outcomes. It allows me to look at the anatomy and devices before the procedure, resulting in shorter procedure time, less unnecessary equipment, and ultimately, higher success rates and fewer complications.

I think the time I’ve spent watching the surgical videos and learning tips and techniques has essentially led to a significant improvement in my learning curve and I recommend it to all aspiring surgeons and colleagues. LapGuru platform fits an important need in Laparoscopic surgical training. The convenience of accessing anytime, anywhere, range of procedures, CME events, Chat facility with the operating surgeon during surgery are some of the features that make it an outstanding platform. Details about pre-op, in-op, post op combined with detailed surgical steps provides the reassurance that the plan and device chosen will deliver the expected outcome. Also, surgical training is currently very much still an apprenticeship model, which has been its foundation for more than a century. This leads to quite a number of issues. For one, surgical experience during residency is somewhat random because budding surgeons are relying on statistics and chance for their procedural experience. However, watching the procedures on LapGuru provides the requisite amount of exposure. Thanks to LapGuru, I have started doing procedures that I wasn’t doing earlier.
