ONLINE 40+ LECTURES, SELF PACED, HANDS ON TRAININNG
customized training course?
you cant take time off from work for hands on?
Since up-skilling involves continued work, and learning is on the side of regular work, we understand the priority is work and you are making an extra effort to educate yourself. So, we want to go the extra mile to make sure your learning is not coming in the way of work. We will accommodate your needs and have done that in the past with several Drs.
you already have a machine and are using it?
Many Drs have an echo machine or have access to one. They have via various courses gotten to some imaging. The course is structured to lay the foundation of your future capabilities. As you will get to do more, you would want to diagnose more and understand more. You will find that what started as a need to only do echo to assess PDA, Function, Volume status and TR, will subsequently extrapolate to diagnosis CHD (vs. PPHN) in a critical newborn in the middle of the night.
you think you cant leave town for hands-on training?
If you cant leave town for Hands-on we will accommodate and help you with learning probe movements while in your office we use live video feeds to guide you in that case.
you think you want extra hands on training ?
Always ready to accommodate Drs. for more focused training, for specific problems and spend a day extra later beyond the training to clear doubts.
you want only poc echo?
Yes, we get asked many times: I want POC training only, not complete echo training. So here is what I ask them: how do you recognize the PDA which should not be closed (duct dependent)? How do you recognize TR of Ebstein's from that of PPHN? You will need to know as you get to do echo. WE FOLLOW THE SAME GUIDELINES AS IN NORTH AMERICA, UK, EUROPE AND AUSTRALIA FOR WHAT HAS TO BE LEARNT IN ECHO FOR NICU/PICU.

A UNIQUE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Comprehensive Training
Echo is not just about learning to hold the probe, but, understanding the patients congenital heart disease best and adding this echo information to better manage the patient. The echocardiogram information is essential, which is why we are teaching it to you.
Multimodality Training
We know Echo is not easy to learn. It needs to be learnt in a very systematic way, one step at a time. It needs multimodality sources of knowledge flowing into you: audio, video, ppt, drawings, flow diagrams and patient based teaching.
Personalised Training
Individualized lecture discussion, clarification of each point, each query, things you would not ask in a group you feel comfortable asking right then and there.

TESTIMONIALS
Dr. Yacine Braham Chaouch, Algeria
I came from Algeria. I was afraid how 7 days will be enough to have the facts, and to learn after this, how to do echocardiography alone!! Infact with Dr. Vikas Kohli method, everything get easier, topics first, explanations then practice.
Everyday new views, every day new information buy never more than what I can understand. Very good experience, a change of my life to meet Dr. Vikas and to learn from him.
Dr. Jayaraj R., Dr. M. Rajendran Hospital, Dharmapuri, TN
Technically I know only the terms of views. With the model of human heart along with diagram was most helpful and that was early to understand. If anything is wrong, I can say. But everything is perfect.
Dr. Pankaj Agrawal , Pediatrician, Barmer, Rajasthan
It was excellent to learn all the new things. Topics and lectures were informative & excellent. They were very informative. What I have learnt I will apply to patients.
Dr. Smita, New Delhi
It is a very interactive course. Dr. Vikas Kohli is really an amazing teacher as he clears all your doubts and gets to the basics and your concepts are all so clear. We got enough opportunity for hands on training. I feel very confident after the course.
Dr. Puneet Mahajan, MD Pediatrics, Gurdaspur
The most interesting part of the course was detailed explanation of various views, interesting case scenarios discussed on one to one basis, this was excellent come. Keep it up.
