Morning office hours are spent in Family Practice Clinic. The only time spent regarding gynecology patients will be emergencies during the time on night call. This rotation includes prenatal care in the JFK Clinic. In-house call averages every 3rd night. There will be a large number of patients to see, but this is an excellent opportunity for educational goals to be met since there is always a full-time ER physician or upper level resident available for instruction.
Residents can expect two days off per week.
Surgery The PGY1 month is a structured preceptorship with a teaching surgical group, and is guided by a list of learning topics and competencies relevant to family physicians. Residents will see surgical patients in outpatient and inpatient areas as well as the OR with the supervising surgeon. The second month of surgery in our overall curriculum is designed to be a time that you will spend with a preceptor with emphasis on office procedures, general diagnosis of conditions requiring surgical intervention, and preoperative evaluation. Dermatology Dermatology is a preceptoral type learning experience in a dermatologist's office. Residents will focus on diagnosis and management of common dermatological conditions.
