Subinternship - Surgery

(4 Credits)

The surgical Sub-Internship is a focused 4 week rotation designed to prepare students for residency training. Students will participate directly in the daily care of surgical patients; i.e. initial evaluation, diagnostic work-up, formulation of differential diagnoses, formulation of treatment options, and institution of management plans. The student is expected to function at the PGY-1 level, with close supervision available from the resident and attending surgical team. Students will participate on rounds, daily care tasks, procedures, surgeries, and conferences.
