Résumé

Postgraduate medical education in Bhutan began in 2014 which marked a new era in the medical education in the country. From a mere handful of surgeons in 2003 to the numbers today, general surgical services have come a long way in Bhutan. Medical education has progressed tremendously to adoption of modern medical educational methods promoting objectivity in all aspects. This article dwells with the historical perspective as well as the state of the general surgical education and the services in Bhutan. It is the first of its kind of article to be written.
