Based on Feedback From one our Fellows who pursued one year program:
"Professor Pietro S. Randelli is a kind, generous human being and master in his field. I have never felt alone since I have been here in Milan; he is always there to help. He is interactive and always enthusiastic to share his knowledge. He is empathetic to his patients and fellows. He offered me cheap accommodation and provided us with lunch coupons to stay in the hospital more to learn and reduce our cost of living. Here in this center, there are many arthroplasties arthroscopies of knee and shoulder, and other surgeries, more than enough for fellows to learn. I am also impressed by the team work of the faculties and other staff in the operation theatre. Besides Professor all other faculties, residents and staff are interactive and helpful which has made this fellowship more fruitful. I got the opportunity to witness more than 75( arthroplasties, arthroscopy, ligament reconstruction, osteotomies)knee surgeries, 19 hip surgeries ( arthroscopies and arthroplasties), and 62 shoulder ( arthroscopy and arthroplasty) surgeries in this short span of time. I have witnessed more than 150 patients in clinics. Special thing to mention is here I witness all the techniques ACL reconstruction and all the grafts used for reconstruction mentioned in the textbook. The professor has enrolled us in academic activities by allowing us to participate in a journal club presented by PG students and also given responsibility to prepare the case for presentation in collaboration with PG students.
I got opportunities to scrub and assist in a few cases and expect much more in the upcoming days. If it would be possible to change the fellowship title to “ Arthroplasty and Arthroscopy fellowship” or “ Joint reconstruction fellowship shoulder, knee and hip”., I think the charm of this fellowship will increase more.
Accommodation:
It was difficult to find initially, and the institute didn’t help. I searched for a room through Airbnb. Luckily, I got a very nice landlord, and he is like a local guardian for me. It is around a 25-minute walk from the hospital, but once a week, I have to go to another hospital, which is one hour away by local train.
Cost:
Milan is one of the most expensive cities in the world, so the cost of living is quite high. I am paying 700 Euro per month for a room, around 20 Euro per day(around 500 Euro per month) for transport, daily meals and coffee, and 15 Euro per month for mobile phone recharge. Overall, I am paying around 1200 to 1500 Euro per month for total expenses. This does not include extra restaurants and local tourism.
Conference and networking:
It was of great kindness to the Professor that he registered all of his Trialect fellows to ESSKA Congress 2024 without cost. Not only that, he has also given a special invitation to all the Trialect fellows to the official gala dinner of ESSKA, where I had the opportunity to take photographs with My Professor and Roland Becker, the president of ESSKA. At the dinner, I had the special privilege to dine with Dr. Fillippo Randelli, the Master of hip surgery, Dr. Papa Vasilua, EHPA chair from Greece, and Dr. Vikash Khanduja from Cambridge University. Thanks to Professor for this opportunity and thanks to Trialect.
Local Attractions:
Milan is a city of fashion, life, and history. There are many places to visit and good food. Very good local transport. Duomo, Sampione Park, Castello Sforzesko, La Scala, the Last Supper, and many more. Thank you, Trialect and the team, and I am proud to be a part of the Trialect family.

Good afternoon from Milan. I was thinking to write to you regarding my fellowship and my stay at Milan but before that I got your email.Your email was unexpected to me but it is like a letter from my own guardian. Thank you for the concern, kindness and sense of responsibility. Besides that, thank you for developing this great platform which has given me like people ( specially from the developing countries) a big opportunity to learn the specialty of our desires. By now you must have understood how my fellowship is going and what I think about my Mentor. Professor Pietro S. Randelli is a kind and generous human being and master in his field. From the day when I am here in Milan I have never felt alone, he is always there to help. He is interactive and always enthusiastic to share his knowledge. He is empathetic to his patients and fellows.

I am also impressed by the team work of the faculties and other staff in the operation theatre.

Thanks to Professor for this opportunity and thanks to Trialect. Local Attractions: Milan is a city of fashion, life and history. There are lots of places to visit and lots of good food to try. Very good local transport. Duomo, Sampione park, Castello Sforzesko, La scala, the last supper and many more. Last but not the least, Because of the foreign currency policy of Nepal, I could bring only 2300 Euros with me. Since the University of Milan is not recognized by Nepal and my fellowship duration is less than one year, the ministry of Education did not issue a no-objection letter for my study. So I am not allowed to transfer foreign currency to Italy. Since I strongly wanted to do this fellowship, my friends in the USA helped me pay for the Trialect. Similarly, other friends staying abroad are helping me with money transfers, for which I pay them back in Nepal. Sadly, because of some political issues and bad administration my fellowship leave hasn’t been approved ( similarly is the case with other colleagues in the institute). Because of that I am not getting any stipend or salary now. In this difficult situation, if I get some financial assistance, it will be of great help. Thank you Trialect and the team and I am proud to be a part of the Trialect family. I am hopefully looking forward to your support. Thank you. would like to thank you for making such a beautiful platform where any aspirant of skills and knowledge in better educational centers in the world has easy access. I had been trying to do a fellowship in many good centres in the world but none of them accepted my fellowship request. It was Trialect that helped me get a fellowship with one of the world leaders in shoulder and knee surgery Professor Pietro S. Randelli. I have completed my fellowship from 5th Feb 2024 to 4th Feb 2025. It was a great experience in Milan. Thank you very much. Keep helping people find their goal.
Good about the program: If possible, I would like to have a long term collaboration with the host mentor and the institute as I felt it was one of the best institutes for specialty orthopedics. Professor Pietro Randelli is among the best in the world for a reason and I am happy to have been mentored by him. Drawbacks: I guess there was a communication lag every time. I would like a faster way of communication like a contact number to talk to someone in case of an emergency. I tried the number from the website and left voice mails but of no quick response. I am okay for the future fellows to contact me
