Does anyone know if there are consumer protection laws for medical students? I believe the Ed Dept has certain laws and regulations to protect students in public schools and certain sectors, but what about for medical students on rotations?
Long story short, there is an issue with an unjust preceptor (outrageously so, not sure if discrimination/prejudice or what reason is) and trying to see what a medical student may be able to do in this type of situation to protect them from a career-endangering action by a preceptor.
I’ve heard that education may be considered a product or a service and may also entail certain protections in this manner. Any thoughts?
