I'm in my second week of my externship. ER was last week. This week is outpatient clinic.
The clinic is open for about three hours in the morning and three hours in the afternoon. I am in the room for the H&P and when the resident has to present the H&P to the attending. I see about four patients per block.
Next week is internal medicine and the last week is surgery.
It's a pretty flexible program because it is hospital sponsored. I don't think I will have this opportunity again so can you recommend some procedures or "things" that I should request to see while I am there.
In other words, what is useful to observe in the hospital that will really stick out in your memory.
