The verdict
Good fit
This is a rare, hyper-focused fellowship for doctors who want to own the niche of pediatric liver care. At just ₹3 lakh total, it is far more affordable than most global equivalents, and the recruiter list—AIIMS, PGIMER, Apollo, Max Healthcare, and dedicated Children's Hospitals—signals serious institutional respect. But with only 2 seats, it is brutally selective, so don't sleep on the entrance prep. If your goal is general pediatrics or broad gastroenterology, this is too narrow; but if neonatal hepatology and pediatric transplants excite you, it is a solid bet.
