Really pleased to announce the launch of our ESG service with Prof. Vinod Menon & Dr John Wong. Grateful to Janie Kelly & Bu’hussain Haye for their support and proctorship and @josh Brown Boston Scientific.

Practiced numerous techniques, including the occasional stapler. Just waiting for the PBA’s to be sent through!! 😀 I’m confident that this training works. Get in touch if interested in coming along. Next one in October or if further afield or outside of UK, virtual in Nic.
