🎬 A short video that can give you the clarity about the whole quagmire!

🎓 Recognition means a lot!

🧑‍⚕️ Work remains same! Responsibility remains the same!

😊 However, acknowledgement of the honest work by a reputed institute like TII Magazine makes work enjoyable.

🦾 Glad to see that our entire team got recognised at the National level by a reputed magazine.

⚔️ Clash of Titans!

🗝️ What a wonderful way to teach and learn about the Complex Sports Injuries and Conditions of the Knee!

🛡️🗡️🥷🥷 The Battles and Mini Battles, the Arguments "For and Against" - the Surgical planning, Techniques helped to bring up more clarity about the whole subject.

🦸 Bringing Doyens of Arthroscopy World on one stage is not an easy task. However, our Task master Dr Shreyash Gajjar and Arthrex Avana Group pulled it off so seamlessly.

🏰 The venue couldn't have been any better than ITC Maratha at the Financial Capital of India, Mumbai!

🧑‍🏫 Being a Faculty at such an awesome podium was a wonderful experience. Thanks to the organising team and colleagues. Had a chance to meet a lot of esteemed colleagues such as Vivek Pandey, Philipp Niemeyer, Vikram Mhaskar, Dr Sheetal Kumar Gupta, Attique Vasdev, Dr Clement Joseph, Marc Jacob Strauss, Nagraj Shetty and many more.

🦶 Big toe Bunions, Deformity and/or Pain have been the price the current civilization is paying for it!

🪢 Wonky Big Toe or Hallux Valgus are the common terms people use to describe this condition.

💊 Interestingly enough, not everyone with hallux valgus needs treatment.

🤓 Know it all about Hallux Valgus and it's treatment options by just watching a 5 minutes video!
