Medical Training

The Clinique Générale in Annecy is an establishment whose primary vocation is the treatment of its patients. But quality, hyperspecialisation in certain areas and their reputation has led us to become a National and International training centre  in certain specialties.

In-house Training

The surgeons and the anaesthetists train the staff on a regular basis. Those trainings are based on preestablished themes with image and film support and they allow the paramedical staff of the hospitalization units to always be up to date and to ask the questions essential to the skillful execution of medical care.

Regional Training

Postgraduate training sessions (EPU) are organised on a regular basis for the general practitioners and also for certain specialists (rheumatologists, sport medicine physicians, reeducation physicinas, gastro enterologists, angiologists, cancerologists, radiologists) by the different surgical teams.

National Training

Interuniversity Diploma (DIU)

The Anaesthesia and Orthopedic Surgery units are trainig centres respectively recognized by the French Anaesthesia and Reanimation Society (SFAR) and the French Arthroscopy Society (SFA). External anaesthetists and surgeons come as visitors so as to complete their specialisation training period that are validated at the Clinique Générale in Annecy in the frame of the Interuniversity Diplomas (DIU).

Visiting Orthopedic surgeons and Anaesthesists

Through their reputation the Anaesthesia and Orthopedic Surgery units attract visitors from the private as well as public sector. They wish to update their skills on state-of-the-art techniques for which our establishment is a centre of reference.

Specialisation course

The Anaesthesia and Orthopedic Surgery units organise, in collaboration with the radiology and reeducation units, courses with surgical and anaesthetist retransmission during one or several days intended for the training of Anaesthetists in the field of Regional Anaesthesia and pain, and for the Orthopedic Surgeons in the field of Arthroscopy and Shoulder, Knee and Hip Prosthesis surgery.

International visitors come to attend to regional anaesthesia techniques and to the Orthopedics operation days. In shoulder surgery, over 100 visitors come each year from the 5 continents and often attend to consultation days.

International Courses and Conventions are organised every year out of the Orthopedic (Arthroscopy, Prosthesis) Shoulder, Knee and Hip Surgery clinic.
