FRCS Vascular Surgery

Completion of the JCIE FRCS Vascular Surgery exam is essential for trainees to obtain their CCT and work as a consultant in the UK.

Following the success of multiple FRCS General Surgery and Vascular Surgery VIVA courses, we are proud to introduce the PrepMedico FRCS-VASC Section 2 VIVA Course—a one-of-a-kind mentorship program and the first of its kind in the UK.

This comprehensive 6-week program offers in-depth guidance and tailored mentorship for candidates preparing for the FRCS Section 2 Vascular Surgery examination. It is designed to simplify your preparation journey while delivering exceptional value through structured learning, strategic insights, and focused oral exam practice.

Led by a team of expert mentors with a proven track record—including multiple gold medal achievers—this course is based on the successful ASPIRE 7 model from the Vascular Society of the UK, but enhanced with additional features and extended support.

The curriculum covers all key concepts, oral examination techniques, advanced clinical knowledge, and essential strategies for time management. Each session is carefully designed to deepen understanding, build confidence, and prepare candidates to excel.

Join us for a transformative learning experience that goes beyond traditional revision to equip you for success in the FRCS Section 2 Vascular Surgery exam.
