"I am privileged to get the opportunity for being a part of IGCS Global Gynecologic Oncology Fellowship Program which is comprehensive two years fellowship training in providing care for women with gynecologic cancers.

This program has not only enlightened me with the knowledge of gynecological cancers and its aspects but has also enriched my understanding of standard patient care approach, enabling me to provide better disease management and support. The well-structured nature of the program with extensive curriculum and the distinguished well learned Faculty has been a main pillar of the training which has enriched our understanding and provided a formal framework for learning and development.

The virtual IGCS ECHO tumor board and discussions are vital in providing a more comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to the management of gynecologic cancers.

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to my International Mentor Dr. Asima Mukhopadhyay and local mentor Dr Ranajit Mandal for their unwavering support and guidance throughout the fellowship.

I am indebted to the IGCS and its team for the continuous support and guidance throughout my training in the management of women with gynecologic malignancies and to ensure quality and sustainability of gynecologic oncology services in future too."
