GI complaints are among the most common reasons patients visit a doctor — from IBS, GERD and fatty liver to IBD, GI cancers and hepatitis. This fellowship gives you the structured clinical knowledge to diagnose, manage and counsel these patients with confidence.
Abdominal pain, bloating, reflux, constipation, liver function abnormalities and gut health questions are among the most frequent OPD presentations in any practice.
NAFLD, obesity-related liver disease, metabolic syndrome and colorectal cancer are rising sharply — creating a growing need for GI-trained clinicians across all settings.
Gut health influencers, probiotic marketing and fad diets confuse patients. A clinically trained doctor provides evidence-based GI guidance that protects patient outcomes.
The F.Gastro. (London) suffix and 120 CPD points add measurable value to your CV, hospital profile, clinic positioning and specialist referral network.
For a doctor, F.Gastro. is not just another online course — it is a comprehensive clinical upgrade that equips you to manage the full spectrum of GI and liver conditions across OPD, IPD and specialist settings.
What feels uncertain and complex before F.Gastro. becomes structured, confident and clinically applicable after it.
F.Gastro. isn't just "learn gastroenterology." It's how you position yourself as the go-to GI clinician in your setting.
Patients with reflux, IBS, liver disease, IBD and GI complaints trust doctors who can explain, investigate and manage their condition with clinical clarity.
Convert scattered GI knowledge into repeatable hepatology assessment, IBD management, functional disorder and GI oncology protocols for faster, better decisions.
Strengthen your CV, LinkedIn, clinic profile and hospital positioning with a UK-awarded fellowship and use the F.Gastro. (London) suffix after your name.
On successful completion you receive a UK-awarded fellowship certificate with programme title, duration, CPD points and QR / serial-number verification.
Add it to your clinic wall, website, LinkedIn, CV and patient education material after successful completion, following ethical display guidelines.
Whatever your setting, F.Gastro. is built to slot into your existing practice and expand your GI clinical capability.
Structured GI and hepatology training to confidently manage the full range of gut, liver and bowel presentations in everyday OPD practice.
Stronger GI decision-making for IPD cases — hepatology, IBD, GI bleeding, pancreatic disease and post-surgical GI management.
Deepen subspecialty GI knowledge to better manage the complex multi-system cases where gastroenterology intersects with internal medicine.
Build a structured gastroenterology OPD with defined clinical pathways for gut health, liver disease, functional disorders and GI prevention.
Add a UK-awarded academic fellowship and use the F.Gastro. (London) suffix to strengthen your international clinical and academic profile.
Build gut microbiome, GI prevention and nutritional gastroenterology programs backed by a credible UK-awarded fellowship credential.
The doctor who refers every GI case — or the clinician who confidently manages hepatology, IBD, functional disorders, GI oncology and gut health across OPD and IPD?
These are the concrete capabilities you walk away with after completing all 52 modules and 16 clinical cases.

The Fellowship in Gastroenterology (F.Gastro.) is a 12-month, internationally accredited online gastroenterology fellowship from Virtued Academy International, awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, UK. It builds structured competence across the full GI spectrum — hepatology, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), functional bowel disorders, pancreatic disease, GI oncology and diagnostic interpretation — so MBBS and post-MBBS doctors can confidently diagnose, manage and counsel gut and liver patients.
It carries 120 Global CPD points, includes lifetime access to 52 modules and 16 clinical case discussions, and lets you use the F.Gastro. suffix after your name on successful completion.
Gastroenterology is the branch of medicine focused on the digestive system and its disorders — the oesophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas and biliary tract. A gastroenterologist diagnoses and manages conditions such as acid reflux (GERD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), fatty liver (NAFLD), hepatitis, inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatic disease and GI cancers, and interprets investigations such as endoscopy reports, liver function tests and GI imaging.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology builds exactly these skills, so a practising doctor can manage gut and liver cases with structure and confidence.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology is awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, UK, and delivered by Virtued Academy International, an autonomous organisation registered under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India. It is internationally accredited by IAOTH, UK and IRAP, and every certificate carries a QR code and serial number for independent verification.
Yes — gastroenterology is one of the highest-demand directions after MBBS, because GI complaints such as acidity, bloating, reflux, constipation and abnormal liver tests are among the most common OPD presentations, and fatty liver, obesity-related liver disease and colorectal cancer are rising sharply. A doctor who can confidently manage gut and liver conditions builds a strong, differentiated practice.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology gives working doctors this structured competence and a recognised credential without leaving practice.
The most accessible route to GI competence after MBBS — without a scarce DM/DNB Gastroenterology seat — is a structured gastroenterology fellowship. The Fellowship in Gastroenterology (F.Gastro.) gives you 12 months of case-based training in hepatology, IBD, functional bowel disorders, pancreatic disease and GI diagnostics, so you can run a confident GI OPD and manage common gut and liver conditions in-house.
It is a professional-development fellowship, not a DM/DNB degree, so it complements rather than replaces super-specialty training and does not by itself register you as a gastroenterologist — but it is a fast, practical way to build real GI capability.
For most practising doctors, a gastroenterology fellowship after MBBS is worth it: GI and liver complaints are extremely common and often referred out, so structured GI skills let you retain and manage more patients, interpret endoscopy and liver tests confidently, and build gut-health and liver-monitoring services.
Actual income depends on your setting and patient base, and Virtued Academy International does not guarantee any specific outcome. What the fellowship reliably provides is structured competence and a verifiable, internationally accredited credential.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology (F.Gastro.) is exclusively for MBBS doctors and above — MBBS (intern or graduate), and post-MBBS qualifications such as MD, MS, DM, MCh and DNB, including international MBBS-equivalent graduates, subject to internal eligibility verification. Final-year MBBS students and interns can also enrol and begin immediately.
AYUSH doctors should take the Fellowship in Gastroenterology (Integrated Medicine); allied-health professionals are welcome in the open-to-all Certificate in Gastroenterology.
Yes. Interns and final-year MBBS students can enrol and start learning right away, studying alongside their duties thanks to the fully online, self-paced format. At certificate issuance, interns submit a temporary registration/licence and graduates their permanent licence, along with the MBBS degree documents.
Yes. Foreign medical graduates can enrol in the Fellowship in Gastroenterology even before clearing the FMGE, and all lectures, case studies, assessments and certification are unaffected. The optional in-hospital observership in India requires FMGE clearance; if you hold a valid licence abroad, a UK or USA observership can be arranged instead.
The standard Fellowship in Gastroenterology (F.Gastro.) is exclusively for MBBS and post-MBBS doctors. If you are an AYUSH doctor (BAMS, BHMS, BUMS, Siddha), the right route is the Fellowship in Gastroenterology (Integrated Medicine), which offers the same 12-month depth and 120 CPD points, framed for your scope of practice.
Allied-health professionals are welcome in the open-to-all Certificate in Gastroenterology.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology is among the most valuable courses to do after MBBS, because GI and liver complaints are extremely common yet frequently referred out for lack of confidence. As a 12-month online fellowship with 120 CPD points and an optional observership, it lets you build genuine GI depth and retain more patients, without leaving practice.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology curriculum spans the full GI spectrum: common GI symptoms (reflux/GERD, IBS, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation and GI bleeding); hepatology (viral hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, NAFLD/fatty liver and biliary tract disease); inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); pancreatic disease; GI oncology; paediatric gastroenterology; functional bowel disorders; diagnostic interpretation (endoscopy reports, liver function tests, GI imaging and histopathology); and gut health, microbiome and nutritional gastroenterology.
It is delivered as 52 modules with 16 clinical case discussions, with the live module list and durations kept current inside the learning platform.
You will learn structured, evidence-based management of reflux/GERD, IBS and functional bowel disorders, GI bleeding, viral hepatitis, cirrhosis and fatty liver (NAFLD), inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's and ulcerative colitis), pancreatic disease and GI cancers — with clear diagnostic, management and counselling protocols rather than general advice.
Yes — hepatology and diagnostic interpretation are core pillars of the Fellowship in Gastroenterology. You learn structured hepatology protocols for hepatitis, cirrhosis, NAFLD and biliary disease, and how to interpret endoscopy reports, liver function tests (LFTs), GI imaging and histopathology with a clear clinical framework, supported by diagnostic interpretation guides in the practice toolkit.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology has a duration of 12 months, structured as a guided pathway. Because you get lifetime access, the 12 months is a minimum guide rather than a hard deadline — you can finish faster or take longer at your own pace, and Virtued does not charge any extension fees.
Yes — it is a fully online gastroenterology course with pre-recorded video lectures, downloadable notes and self-assessment quizzes, built for working doctors: roughly up to two hours of study per week, at your own pace, with no fixed timings and lifetime access.
Clinical observership is optional and available for this post-MBBS fellowship, with one-month placements arrangeable across India, the UK and the USA; you also gain extensive practical understanding through the 16 clinical case discussions and expert Q&A inside the LMS. If you prefer a hospital of your choice, Virtued can provide a recommendation letter at no additional cost.
The fellowship includes a Gastroenterology Clinical Practice Toolkit — GI and hepatology case discussions, diagnostic interpretation guides, GI-prevention checklists and patient-counselling tools — plus monthly live doubt sessions, 24/7 academic Q&A support, and an opportunity to publish chapters in ISBN-registered gastroenterology books via Virtued's in-house publication division.
A diploma in gastroenterology is typically a longer, institution-based academic programme, whereas the Fellowship in Gastroenterology from Virtued Academy International is a structured, case-based programme built around practical GI and hepatology competence, delivered fully online with lifetime access, so you can upskill alongside your existing practice.
Most doctors searching for a gastroenterology diploma or fellowship want practice-ready GI skills, which is exactly what this fellowship delivers, with 120 CPD points and an internationally accredited, verifiable credential.
Virtued Academy International does not offer a separate ‘diploma’ tier. The same depth doctors look for in a gastroenterology diploma is covered by two tracks: the 3-month Certificate in Gastroenterology (30 CPD) for a focused foundation, and the 12-month Fellowship in Gastroenterology (120 CPD) for comprehensive training with an optional observership.
A DM or DNB in Gastroenterology is a full super-specialty medical qualification obtained through NEET-SS, with extremely limited seats and years of residency, and it confers specialist gastroenterologist registration including endoscopic procedural training. The Fellowship in Gastroenterology (F.Gastro.) is a 12-month professional-development fellowship focused on clinical GI and hepatology competence and a recognised CPD credential; it is not a substitute for a DM/DNB and does not by itself register you as a gastroenterologist or qualify you to perform endoscopy independently.
Doctors typically choose the fellowship for fast, practice-oriented GI competence without waiting for a scarce super-specialty seat.
Choose the Certificate in Gastroenterology (C.Gastro, 30 CPD, 3 months) for an accessible foundation open to every healthcare professional. Choose the Fellowship in Gastroenterology (F.Gastro., 120 CPD, 12 months) if you are an MBBS or post-MBBS doctor who wants comprehensive GI and hepatology training with an optional observership. Many learners start with the certificate and progress to the fellowship.
Both fellowships share the same 12-month structure, 120 CPD points and clinical depth, but they are matched to different audiences: the Fellowship in Gastroenterology (F.Gastro.) is for MBBS and post-MBBS doctors, while the Fellowship in Gastroenterology (Integrated Medicine) is for AYUSH doctors, framed for their scope of practice. The fee is the same; the framing and suffix differ.
Most online gastroenterology courses are narrow or stop at a basic certificate. The Fellowship in Gastroenterology is a 12-month, internationally accredited fellowship awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, with 120 CPD points, lifetime access to 52 modules across the full GI spectrum and 16 case discussions, a clinical practice toolkit, an optional observership and a QR-verifiable credential — built for doctors who want comprehensive, verifiable GI upskilling.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology carries 120 Global CPD points (CPD hours / CME credits), accredited through Virtued Eduversity, London, UK, and recognised via IAOTH, UK and IRAP. Virtued's 12-month fellowships carry 120 CPD points and its 3-month certificates carry 30 CPD points.
On successful completion you receive a Fellowship in Gastroenterology certificate awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London and delivered by Virtued Academy International, and you may use the F.Gastro. suffix after your name as per Virtued Eduversity’s guidelines.
The Code of Medical Ethics Regulations, 2002 (Ref 1.4.2) guides that physicians display as a suffix only recognised medical degrees or certificates/diplomas and memberships/honours that confer professional knowledge or recognise an exemplary qualification or achievement.
The Fellowship in Gastroenterology is a continuing-professional-development credential awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London and delivered by Virtued Academy International (registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India). Virtued's online/blended programmes operate independently of NMC approval requirements and are offered transparently as professional development, with international accreditation from IAOTH, UK and IRAP.
It is not an NMC-recognised medical degree or postgraduate qualification, and on its own it does not grant a licence to practise as a specialist gastroenterologist or to perform endoscopic procedures independently. Apply the learning within your existing scope of practice and confirm requirements with the relevant councils or medical boards in your region.
This CPD programme is an independent professional development initiative, conducted outside UGC, AICTE, NMC, NCAHP, Ofqual, OfS, QAA frameworks, acknowledging their jurisdictions, without implying a practising licence, qualification to practise, statutory recognition, licensure eligibility, or equivalence to qualifications governed by regulatory bodies.
Every Fellowship in Gastroenterology certificate shows the programme title, duration and 120 CPD points, and carries a QR code and serial number for independent verification. It is awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London and delivered by Virtued Academy International.
Once you complete the required learning and internal assessment, you can request certificate issuance; after Virtued verifies your completion, payment and qualification documents, the certificate is issued in both soft copy and hard copy, typically within 7–14 working days. For Indian students on programmes of 3 months or longer the hard copy is free; for international students, shipping may apply — see the Shipping and Exchange Policy.
For fellowship programmes, submit your MBBS degree marksheets and degree certificate, plus either a temporary registration/licence (if you are an intern) or a permanent licence (if you have completed your degree). You can submit these at registration or email them after completing the course, before certificate issuance.
Virtued Academy International has enrolled doctors from 195+ countries, and the Fellowship in Gastroenterology awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London carries international accreditation as a professional-development credential. As with any CPD programme it does not itself grant a licence — confirm requirements with the regulator where you intend to practise.
