Santa the a pediatric PA
We’re taking this time to be with our families and get ready for our toughest quarter, winter quarter of year 1, when the combined demands of the program really pile up:
- Cardiology
- Nephrology (diseases of the kidney)
- Gastroenterology (diseases of the digestive system).
- Also in January, we begin our preceptorships. Preceptorships are basically internships in primary care clinics. We will begin seeing real patients on a regular basis, writing up progress/”SOAP” notes on them, and working with our supervising physicians.
We have updates planned for the new year, along with a new look for the site, videos, and more talk about all things PA training.
