Externship plans? Already?

Well, I’ve had two Pumpkin Spice Lattes, but it hardly feels like fall around here! Hopefully soon! I just finished my third week of fall semester and I’m really enjoying it so far. Summer semester was overwhelming, but it thankfully wrapped up nicely and easily. One of the most exciting (also really stressful!) things to happen at the end of last semester was the finalization of our externship assignments. It is so bizarre for me to think that we only have two semesters left b... Read More

Real Patients and Real Patience

Happy August, everyone! Only two more weeks left in this semester, and I will already be a third of the way done with year 3! Woo! Obviously, the biggest change from last year to this year has been the start of clinic. I am in clinic on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but the day that I see patients in Adult Primary Care clinic is Thursday. I know I keep saying how big of a change it is, but it seriously is a huge change! We’ve been practicing our clinical skills in lab for two yea... Read More

Hey everyone! It’s hard to believe I’m coming to the end of my second year! It seems like we were just sitting through our first-year orientation, and now we’re already getting ready for our clinic orientation in a few weeks. For me, this semester has been mostly about honing my clinical skills and preparing to enter clinic. We’ve finally learned the last skills that we need to complete a comprehensive exam, which is pretty exciting. Last month, my classmates and I all had to pass a pre-cl... Read More

There’s a (Christmas) Light at the End of the Tunnel!

Hi everyone! I can’t believe we’re coming down to our final weeks of the semester. I am just about finished with labs for the fall, and just have a couple days left of classes. We had a few practicals last week, and I just have one more school screening to do tomorrow. Then I can really focus on finals and getting ready to head home for Christmas! It was so nice to be home for Thanksgiving. I haven’t been back to Pennsylvania since July, so it was wonderful to be back and to have a chance t... Read More
