Content

ELECTIVES OFFERED: Anesthesiology, Neurology, Ob/Gyn, Oncology, Pathology, Psychology, Radiology, all surgical subspecialties except Neurosurgery and Cardiac Surgery. Rounds with the preceptor occur each morning at both hospitals. The balance of the day is spent seeing patients at the clinic. Appropriate admissions are worked up at the hospital (average of q.o.d.). The typical patient is not as sick as a typical CSC patient. The ER is freely available to the preceptee, though this is generally a pretty quiet place. Also, arrangements may be made to spend time in other subspecialty areas. There are also opportunities in the clinic to do some one to two day specialized days such as Podiatry, Diabetic Education and other shorter subspecialty type experiences.
