Summary: | General surgery is a dynamic and multifaceted field influenced by diverse factors, ranging from cultural norms to healthcare system structures and technological advancements. This review paper delves into a comparative exploration of the educational landscapes in Canada and India, unravelling the intricacies of training aspiring general surgeons. As two nations with distinct healthcare systems and educational frameworks, Canada and India offer unique perspectives on the journey from medical school to independent surgical practice. This article compares the residency application process, training structure, assessment methods, challenges faced during clinical training and the role of research in surgical programmes between the two nations. Through this comparative lens, we seek to provide valuable insights that may inform future developments in surgical education, fostering a global exchange of knowledge and practices to advance healthcare systems worldwide. |
