Students encouraged to participate in case management discussion with clinicians, perform physical examinations, participate in procedures when able, and are expected to take advantage of our in house library and online resource library to deepen their knowledge and develop insight into the cases they are seeing.

Endoscopic suite for GI procedures. Full in house laboratory, POC ultrasound available for general hospital use. Highly trained technical staff and excellent lay-support staff.
Staying for the work day for the service they are shadowing, but generally 8 hours per day. Shifts can be on weekends or overnights if arranged. Students shadow a single clinician or several (depending on the service) and are encouraged to follow cases as they move through the hospital.
