Evaluation

Uniform Clinical Evaluation; didactic/case

Description

Experience will be provided in GI, Hepatology, Nutrition, and Intestinal Rehabilitation. The student can choose the relative distribution of inpatient, consult, outpatient and procedure activities. On the inpatient service, the student is expected to follow 1-3 patients, including pre-rounding and presenting on daily rounds. The student has the opportunity to see consults in the afternoon. Outpatient clinics include both general GI as well as Liver, Transplant, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and other subspecialty clinics. These often are shadow experiences. Although no call or weekend hours are required, extended hours of pre-rounding and sign-out are expected on the inpatient service. This elective provides a close working relationship with pediatric residents during their required inpatient ward month. Students will also have an opportunity to attend resident conferences.
