Bruce Bailey Fellowship
Mr. Bruce Bailey,
Retired Senior Consultant Plastic Surgeon at
Stoke Mandeville Hospital
,
United Kingdom
passed away in
April 2001. He was responsible for training many Plastic Surgeons
from
India
including Dr S Raja Sabapathy. He opened the windows of opportunities
for many young surgeons from our country. In the memory of this great
man “Bruce Bailey Traveling Fellowship” was set up by
Ganga
Hospital
. Bruce visited
India
many times and loved it. It is felt that setting up a Fellowship to
enable a British Trainee visit our unit for a period of 6 to 8 weeks is a
good way to keep the memory of the great man alive. It surely will
build bridges between the two countries to mutual advantage. The
Fellowship is recognized and announced in the newsletters of the British
Association of Plastic Surgeons and the British Society for Surgery of the
Hand for the information of the interested candidates.
