World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists (WFSA)

After the end of the Second World War anaesthetists found that international travel became more widely available.

In 1955 the first World Congress of Anaesthesiologists took place at Scheveningen in the Netherlands. And at the end of the Congress the WFSA came into existence.

Fellows will work at the Department of Anaesthesia at National Hospital Abuja. Teaching will be provided by local faculty and visiting specialists.

PATA is locally led and supported by the WFSA, the Nigerian Society of Anaesthetists, and experienced partners from the global surgery and anaesthesia space including Smile Train and the Vanderbilt University Medical Centre.
