Final Clinical Skills of 2021
October 25, 2021
We held the final session of Clinical Skills for 2021--here's to our Block 6 students! During Clinical Skills students will learn suturing and knot tying as well as different birth techniques and exams. Clinical Skills is an integral portion of the clerkship so that students feel most comfortable and can perform while on site.
