Welcome to the fourth FTSS surgical specialty teaching session. This is a collaborative initiative between the West Midlands Foundation Trainees Surgical Society(FTSS) and the Surgical Society of International Doctors(SSID).

This teaching series offers insider perspectives from trainees across diverse surgical specialities. An exclusive look into their weekly routines, shedding light on the pros and cons of their chosen specialities, the challenges they’ve faced and a succinct review of common cases they often encounter. Additionally, we also delve into details about the application process for their respective training programs.

In this session, we are excited to feature Mr Tahir Khaleeq MRCS PgDip(MedEd), a Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgery specialty trainee from the renowned Birmingham Orthopaedic Training Programme. Tahir was previously a Foot and Ankle Registrar at RJAH Orthopaedic Hospital (Oswestry) and a Digital Teaching Fellow for HEE(West Midlands). Tahir will give us an exclusive look into his journey through specialty training as an IMG!
