Episode 18: Knot to be missed - The RCOG surgical skills podcast | Across the pond, into the sim lab

In this episode, Hannah and Naomi sit down with Dr Veronica Lerner, Director of Simulation at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York and one of the leading voices in surgical education. Veronica shares her journey into minimally invasive surgery, how her experiences shaped her passion for simulation, and what the UK can learn from the US approach to validated training systems like FLS and EMIGS. She gives a fresh, transatlantic insight into the future of simulation, how it can transform training quality, and why structured, high-fidelity practice is essential for the next generation of surgeons. A must-listen for anyone interested in where O&G surgical training is heading!
