Calling all surgeons-to-be!
This coming May 17, the University of the Philippines Surgical Society (UPSS) will be launching the first ever Surgical Summit: The Surgeon’s Playbook, to be held at the Medical Sciences Building of the UP Manila College of Medicine, Pedro Gil St., Ermita, Manila.
As a celebration of surgical practice, past, present, and future, the Surgical Summit blends together an age-old discipline with future-oriented modern perspectives, which enshrines in its participants the technical skills and collaborative mindset central to the surgeon’s toolkit.
The day-long event will open with plenary talks from decorated surgeons well into their practice, as they discuss trailblazing new perspectives in the field – from celebrating surgery as both a science and an art to paving paths for women surgeons to prosper in the industry. The morning sessions will conclude with a panel discussion from different surgical subspecialties as they provide their unique insights on surgical practice today.
The surgical summit’s afternoon sessions will feature a dynamic workshop honing the most fundamental yet crucial skills in the life of a surgeon. Whether it’s stitching up incisions, controlling bleeding wounds, or perhaps even conducting laparoscopic surgery itself, these workshops are guaranteed to dazzle those with the zeal to learn.
Prospective participants can register through https://bit.ly/SurgicalSummit2025 for the price of Php 350 (Operating) or Php 200 (Observing). Slots for the exclusive laparoscopy trainer station are also limited and issued on a first come, first served basis.
