We surgeons are a unique bunch! Our learning style is different. We can’t stand listening to a series of boring lectures that could have easily been done by watching a video or reading two pages of text. We want interaction. We want discussion. We want chats over dinner with our peers to see how they do things differently. We learn by hearing about our colleague’s mistakes and anecdotes not by reading textbooks.
Endometriosis Surgery From A-Z
Pre-Camp Preparation
Essential videos and papers will be released 3 months before the Bootcamp so that we don’t waste time going through theoretical knowledge that can be done at home
Focus on surgical techniques
It is amazing how much you can improve your technique by discussing videos. Asking for feedback on your own surgical videos and watching other’s work.
Interactive lectures
The curriculum has been carefully thought through, with clear objectives in mind. There are a storyline and an endpoint.
Networking
Spending a whole week with a group of like-minded colleagues, guided by the faculty provides a unique opportunity to learn from peers, in the classroom, at breakfast or on the slopes
Course Directors
Shaheen Khazali
Shaheen Khazali
Dr. Shaheen Khazali has dedicated his practice to advanced endometriosis surgery and his practice is almost exclusively endometriosis surgery, both robotic and laparoscopic. He leads a high-volume endometriosis referral center in London, focusing primarily on gastrointestinal, urinary tract and diaphragmatic endometriosis excision, as well as neuropelveology.
Dr. Khazali has trained numerous endometriosis surgeons worldwide, with a strong commitment to teaching in his field.
Frequently invited to speak at international conferences on endometriosis, Mr. Khazali has also organized and led numerous live surgery workshops. His development of the SOSURE technique for endometriosis excision stems from his belief that adopting a structured surgical approach and dividing complex cases into smaller components allows gynecologists to safely and efficiently perform complex procedures.
Dr. Khazali currently serves as the Honorary Secretary of the International Society of Neuropelveology (ISON) and holds positions on the executive board of the European Endometriosis League (EEL) and the international advisory board of the European Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy (ESGE). Previously, he served on the board of the British Society of Gynaecological Endoscopy for a decade. Among his recent initiatives is the Lister Endometriosis Journal Club (LEJEndo), a virtual international journal club dedicated to endometriosis. LEJEndo convenes on the 6th of each month at 6pm London time.
