Pediatrics Clerkship
MED MD 305
The Pediatrics Clerkship is a 6-week clinical experience in the core clerkship year. In this clerkship, students will develop their ability to care for patients from birth to age 22, increasing their competence to address the unique needs of young patients using developmentally appropriate, family-centered, and biopsychosocial frameworks. The clerkship will hone students’ clinical and communication skills, with an emphasis on relationship building with patients and their families. Students will learn to adapt both physical exam techniques and communication to age-appropriate and knowledge-appropriate levels.
