The surgery clinic service encourages a wide variety of patients. All major surgical disciplines are served, including general surgery, trauma, critical care, plastic surgery, ENT, and vascular surgery. The team is comprised of a Chief Resident, a junior resident, and an intern. The Chief Resident functions as a junior attending and can admit patients via the Emergency Room or through consults.
Clinic meets one afternoon weekly for surgical follow-up and new patient visits.
The experience is challenging with graduated responsibility depending on training level. All residents and interns should expect to spend at least two months a year on the clinic service and will find the time personally rewarding.
