Brief Summary
Some reports cite over 80% of surgery residency graduates are seeking additional training to improve on their experiences to be ready for practice. The Fellowship Council created several fellowship tracts including HPB (Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary),Advanced GI (gastrointestinal) and Minimally Invasive surgery to address this issue, and bridge the gap in training between residency and real life practice in those that seek a practice in HPB or complex GI surgery, respectively. By the end of fellowship, the core goal is to make the graduating fellows ready for independent practice in HPB or complex GI surgery cases.

- STUDY PROTOCOL
All information will be blinded in compliance with good clinical practice. The investigator will make all possible efforts to ensure compliance with all policies regarding sharing of Survey or research information. Only de-identified surveyor information will be shared in relevant research mediums. These mediums may range from national, regional, local and/or international sites. In addition, study data and findings may be submitted for presentation at local and national conferences. As study protocol is intended to cover multiple surveys we are unaware where these publications will be used at this time. Publication reference will be added ad hoc to maintain in records.
