Certificate/Fellowship Courses after MBBS

This article is meant for certificate courses after MBBS. While young medical professionals are running behind post graduation, there is always a need for primary care physicians in India, though Indian laws are sick, people are biggest ass and politicians made people fool that governments do care for them while doctors are not - whole scenario made many doctors to leave this country.

However the certificate courses are very much useful if you're a PCP or want to be updated with latest guidelines. There are a number of such courses - I am sure that I could not list up all but will keep this post updated.


Most of these fellowship/certificate or diploma courses don't accredited by MCI.

But they will help a post-MBBS doctor to update his/her skills in his/her daily patient visits. 

MCI website link to check whether your course in MCI recognized or not: 

https://www.mciindia.org/CMS/information-desk/college-and-course-search

new link as MCI is resolved, and NMC is being founded:

https://www.nmc.org.in/information-desk/college-and-course-search

  • ACLS and BLS Courses - ACLS stands for advanced cardiac life support and BLS stands for basic life support. This course is regularly conducted at different institutes, private hospitals and medical colleges across the country, and I think one MBBS pass out must enroll to this course as it teaches how to treat a cardiac arrest. You can be a true life saviour if you know the correct procedure. 
  • Certificate Course in Evidence Based Diabetes Management (CCEBDM)

This is probably the most popular certificate course among post MBBS students as well as PG/DM students or doctors. Actually offered by Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI), they conduct this course regularly with some good quality of mentors across the country. It is also accredited with Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Education Academy (a unit of Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Specialities Centre, Chennai https://drmohans.com/ ).

  • Certificate Course in Evidence Based Management of Diabetic Retinopathy (CCDR) - www.ccdr.org.in
  • Certificate Course in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (CCGDM) - www.ccgdm.org
  • Certificate Course in Management of COPD and Asthma (CCCA) - www.ccca.org.in
  • Advanced Certificate Course in Prevention and Management of Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease (ACMDC) – www.acmdc.org.in 

ACMDC is collaborated with Center for Chronic Disease Control (CCDC), Chellaram Diabetes Institute (www.cdi.org.in), World Heart Federation (https://www.world-heart-federation.org/).

  • Certificate Course in Management of Thyroid Disorders (CCMTD) - www.ccmtd.org
  • Certificate Course in Management of Hypertension - www.ccmh.org.in
  • Certificate Course in Cardiovascular Disease and Stroke (CCCS) - http://cccs.org.in/

This course is endorsed by Royal College of Physicians, London.

  • Health Emergencies in Large Populations (H.E.L.P) - www.helpcourse.org


All the above mentioned courses are offered by PHFI and these clinical courses are basically directed to primary care physicians.


Apart from those, PHFI runs Indian Institute of Public Health in 5 cities (Hyderabad, Delhi, Shillong, Bhubaneswar and Gandhinagar) of India where several courses of Public Health are being taught.

As a sign of gratitude for how my husband was saved from Lymes, I decided to reach out to those still suffering from this.
My husband suffered from Lymes and it was really tough and heartbreaking for me because he was my all and the symptoms were terrible, we tried various therapies prescribed by our neurologist but none could cure him. I searched for a cure and I saw testimony of so many people who were cured from Lymes , and so many others with similar body problems, and they left the contact of this doctor who had the herbal cure to Lymes. I never imagined Lymes had a cure not until I contacted him and he assured me my husband will be fine. I got the herbal medication he recommended and my husband used it and in one months he was fully okay even up till this moment he is so full of life.Lymes has a cure and it is a herbal cure contact the doctor for more info on drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Dr Itua can cure Herpes,Hiv,Cancer,ALS,Copd,HPV,Lupus,MS,Diabetes, and other disease talk to Dr Itua on how to get the medication. Thanks for reading my testimony .
