He completed his early medical training in Belarus and England, where he took his MRCS examinations with the Royal College of Surgeons, England in 2006. In 2007 he commenced his initial surgical training at the Alfred, Royal Melbourne and Sandringham Hospitals. He subsequently worked at orthopaedic departments in Victoria, Tasmania and NSW increasing his surgical skills.
