Introduction: Elevating Standards in Pain Medicine Training
In the evolving world of pain medicine, few institutions have managed to consistently lead from the front like Daradia: The Pain Clinic. With a mission to empower pain physicians across the globe, Daradia is redefining what it means to pursue a fellowship in pain medicine—both offline and online. The clinic is not just a treatment hub but a prestigious academic center that offers cutting-edge pain medicine courses, interventional pain training, and musculoskeletal ultrasound education.
In 2025, Daradia achieved another milestone that underlined its global leadership: conducting its final examination for its highly sought-after one-year fellowship in pain medicine, with participants from India, Kenya, Tanzania, Maldives, and Nepal. This achievement underscores Daradia’s rising international stature as a trusted center for pain education and professional development in interventional pain management.
A Fellowship Program That Crosses Borders
The Fellowship in Pain Medicine at Daradia is designed with a clear goal—to produce well-rounded, compassionate, and highly skilled pain physicians who are competent in the latest interventional techniques. The program welcomes doctors from all over the world and includes:
- In-person hands-on cadaveric training
- Advanced MSK ultrasound-guided pain interventions
- C-arm fluoroscopy-guided techniques
- Live patient demonstrations
- Pain physiology and pharmacology sessions
- Virtual patient simulation through Daradia’s AI-powered Virtual Clinic
Daradia’s inclusive approach has enabled physicians from low- and middle-income countries to access high-quality education, often unavailable in their home countries.
A Truly Global Pain Medicine Community
In this recent fellowship exam, candidates from five countries underwent rigorous assessments, including OSCEs, live case evaluations, theoretical papers, and interactive viva voce. The diversity in participation speaks volumes about the global appeal of Daradia’s pain medicine fellowship.
“It’s not just about passing an exam. It’s about becoming an ethical, skillful, and empathetic pain physician. Daradia trains you to be just that,” said one of the successful fellows from Tanzania.
This diversity of background brings a richness to the learning environment, encouraging cross-cultural exchange of ideas, clinical challenges, and practice patterns in pain management.
