MISA

our aim

A first in Mauritius! The Minimally Invasive Surgery Association (MISA) is the first Mauritian organisation of surgeons with a common interest in minimally invasive surgery.

The Association will be open to all those registered with the Medical Council, be it private or public. It aims to bring together not only surgeons, but professionals from all medical fields, including nurses.

MISA wants to ensure the professional development of surgeons, general practitioners and nurses in the field of surgery and to foster a “good understanding” among all health care professionals in Mauritius.

Minimally

Invasive Surgery

As Dr. Faisal Abbasakoor (President MISA) explains, “surgery covers a wide range of conditions, from curing cancer patients to a whole range of non-cancerous conditions, such as trauma, infection, inflammation, organ restoration or replacement… With minimally invasive surgery, patients recover faster with less suffering.”

He points out that “we are in an era of rapid technological progress and with our busy schedules, it is indeed very difficult to keep up with all the latest changes. This Association will play a key role in bringing surgeons together to keep abreast of the latest information on surgical advances.”

It is therefore with great pleasure that we invite you to join us to make this a vibrant Association for the benefit of all of us and not least, our patient.
