Ambulatory Care Elective Information
Course Coordinator: Dr. Shannon Scott-Vernaglia—However,
individual clinics are set up by the resident
Goals and Objectives of Rotation:
The purpose is to expose residents to
particular aspects of sub-specialty pediatrics and to provide
extra continuity clinic sessions, when possible. The third year
block is designed to expose you to major subspecialties common to
primary care pediatrics: Dermatology, Orthopedics, Ophthalmology,
ENT, and Allergy.
Weekly clinics and
conferences:
Since this rotation is now an elective, the
faculty need to be contacted directly prior to starting the
elective to confirm availability for clinic sessions. They are
not expecting you unless you call ahead
