Clinical Observership


Observership positions are available to ENT surgeons and ENT surgical trainees (registrars or residents) in their final year of training in Laryngology with Associate Professor Daniel Novakovic. Observers are not permitted to have any direct patient contact unless they are registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Observerships will allow potential candidates to observe at specific clinics and operating theatres.

Observerships are offered for a period of maximum one month. A duration of 1-2 weeks is strongly recommended for observation for candidates interested in applying for the Doctor Liang Voice Program laryngology fellowship
