A system of bilateral assessment of supervisors and trainees has also been developed to improve and assess the program on frequent intervals. The implementation of the program has had a very positive impact on patient care at The Indus Hospital across various disciplines.
All PGME programs at The Indus Hospital commence on January 1 every year, for which applications are processed annually in October. The application form can be downloaded from this section during the recruitment season.
