7/30/2021 16:15Tharika3/4/2019Internal MedicineHoustonFinding clerkship for an international medical graduate is not an easy task! For someone like me who had no family in the US, I didn’t want to go through the hassle of looking for a clerkship while I was in the US alone. MedClerkship offered me multiple options to choose the location and they were really flexible with the change of dates. The physicians I shadowed were helpful in guiding me through the residency process and I had a great hands-on clinical experience. I believe that they wrote strong LoRs which helped me match, despite having average scores. The dream of pursuing residency in USA came true with the help of MedClerkships. 3 months of clerkship and a free personal statement editing service. Thank you very much for being flexible with locations.
My Visa was rejected for the first time and the second it was approved with the letter you provided.
The preceptors were kind enough to change the dates on my LoRs to recent dates which looked good on the letters. The personal statement editing was beneficial to me, as it’s one of the major factors of application. YesStrongly Agree – 5TX300FMTX300IMCA
8/6/2021 10:10Marheb6/7/2021Internal MedicineBrooklyn, NYI was mostly happy with how efficient my clinical program enrolment process was despite my arranging a week before the start date of my clinical rotations. My program enrolment was confirmed within two days, and MedClerkships helped facilitate the best possible preceptorship experience that I could have asked for.The COVID-19 pandemic brought several challenges for the present residency application cycle. One of these challenges required those residency applicants who could not travel to the U.S. for in-person U.S. clinical experience to opt for alternative clinical experiences. MedClerkships allowed me to gain U.S. clinical and research experience via their remote telemedicine programs, which were exceptionally useful and engaging.The opportunity to complete remote telemedicine clinical and research rotations has helped me gain more clinical knowledge as I prepare for residency. This experience has further refined my capacity to adapt and overcome challenges, making me a stronger candidate for residency while we all navigate the current COVID-19 pandemic.YesStrongly Agree – 5RES300IMRES300AS

I found the preceptor’s explanation of diagnostic imaging particularly helpful as this is one of my problem areas.
I was happy with the variety and depth of topics covered.

9/9/2021 13:05Jaya Sri7/19/2021Family MedicineHouston, TXDr Y’s clinic experience was the best. He gave me complete autonomy with the management plans of the patients. I learnt about management of patients with chronic debilitating illnesses. Also, the clinic staff were so friendly and welcoming. I’ve made some really great friends with this experience!Dr Y arranged for me to shadow him in the hospital, in inpatient and ICU in addition to the outpatient clinic. It was a good learning opportunity to see the management of patients in the hospital ranging from a regular cold in the ER to MRSA in ICU. Dr Y discussed management plans of different patients including chronic Afib, sudden onset C.diff in the inpatient unit. This experience was so worthwhile and I believe I would value the most. I was able to obtain the much needed clinical experience in the field I’m applying to. The preceptors have uploaded the LORs in a timely fashion. I believe the experience makes me a strong applicant for the upcoming cycle. YesStrongly Agree – 5Absolutely! Dan has been so kind with the scheduling. He was so flexible with my rotation dates and the I was able to change it a couple of times due to the travel restrictions with the ongoing pandemic. There have been multiple times where I wished I knew about the team sooner! I’ve already recommended Medclerkships to multiple friends who will contact you guys soon. TX300FM

9/16/2021 12:51Jaya Sri8/30/2021Family MedicineTelehealth at NJ (teleUSCE)I was able to talk to few patients but certainly don’t recall any particular experience that I am happy with. It might be because of the platform of rotation rather than the preceptor. Patients weren’t comfortable enough, which is understandable. If I could do it all over again, I would choose to attend in-person rotation. I believe the major benefit was that I didn’t have to personally attend the clinic for the experience. Dr G and her husband tried their best to make me part of their team. They called me on whatsapp and made me talk to their patients which I think was pretty great on their part. I felt the conversations were informal. Although, I did learn quite a few things about how outpatient clinics work. I’ve gotten an LOR from Dr G, which I think adds strength to my application. YesAgree – 4I’m very happy with the customer service provided by Medclerkships. Dan checked up on me during the rotation, making sure everything was going good. He contacted the preceptors multiple times on my behalf when I wasn’t able to reach out, which is so kind of him. I would say my experience was great partly because of Dan. Thanks again for all your help!RES303FM

He is always calm and patient in carefully listening any questions from every student and answer. He encouraged participation from every students.

9/23/2021 13:57Dr. 7/6/2020Internal Medicine & Hem/Onc(teleUSCE)At the time of applying for residency, I had been out of medical school and my US electives for 3 years. Therefore, I was looking for additional US Clinical Experience. A friend recommended MedClerkships and I booked two externships with the agency. Unfortunately, right after that, the covid pandemic started and travel became impossible. MedClerkships was very flexible when it came to changing the start date. Eventually, they arranged for my rotations to be done virtually. Despite the virtual nature of them, they still provided a decent insight into primary care in the United States and enabled me to obtain much needed recommendation letters from US physicians. I ended up using those LoRs at most of the places I got interviews from and one of them at the place where I ultimately matched, a university-affiliated program in NYC.They also provided the CV/PS editing service. After the match, the program required me to obtain updated copies of the LoRs and MedClerkships helped me get in touch with the attending and obtain the LoR.YesStrongly Agree – 5Overall, MedClerkships delivered all the services we agreed on and was very flexible during the unprecedented time of the first covid wave. As such, I am happy to report my positive experience and recommend MedClerkships as a reliable agency for IMGs looking to find clinical experience in the USA.RES300IMRES300HONC

An experience that I definitely have to mention is about the time she called in a patient who has a rare birth disorder just so me and my colleague to interact with the patient to better understand the condition and prepare a patient note. I got to see and learn first hand about what really is compassionate patient care.A good doctor-patient relationship is one of my primary goals as a physician and rotating with Dr. A has really set a high standard for me to emulate in the same in my future practice.YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes.

Each individual at the clinic has taught me something new exposing me to different perspectives all of which are united in their commitment to patient care.YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes, especially the prompt response to any query.NY100C
10/1/2021 13:59Aanchal4/19/2021Internal Medicine Boston, MA The preceptor is triple board certified in IM,GI and allergy. He runs a private practice which is super fast paced and provides highly detailed and specialised care the patients. He is also headlining multiple reserve trials, the perfect balance of private and academic life. He is extremely very smart and working at his clinic for me was an absolute privilege. I mostly worked in the clinic and also observed him in the minor OT during EGD and Colonoscopy procedure. I did struggle in the first week of my rotation as it was a new challenging environment, but after my learning period, I really polished all the necessary skills that IMGs require for residency. The rotation is hard and demanding, but has the highest rewards!! I helped him out on some research as well! This rotation definitely provided a BIG boost to my match journey! After my rotation with this precpetor, I am confident in my ability to take histories, exam patients, form differentials, diagnose and treat patients. Most of all, I am extremely very confident with my ability to document the interactions in EHR. These skills are absolutely essential for residency in the US and for the practice beyond. I have received multiple compliments since my rotation with the doctor. After working at such a fast paced clinic, I am easily able to handle heavy workloads and never feel overwhelmed. YesStrongly Agree – 5Dan was extremely very helpful! He helped me find rotations that were best suitable for me. He is super fast with his responses and always had the answers to my questions.
Dr. Mike is the nicest! He definitely went above and beyond while helping me out with my application, and would schedule a phone call whenever I had any concerns and doubts. He was super reassuring, especially when I needed the reassurance.
There are many organisations that try fleecing IMGs and don’t provide good services, I have had my fair share of interactions with them.
MedClerkships is definitely NOT one of those, I got a whole lot more than what I paid for!

10/13/2021 12:34Vanessa9/1/2021Emergency MedicineChicagoI was very happy with my experience in Chicago at the hospital. I worked mainly with Dr S and received both guidance and enough space to be able to work-up patients on my own (with oversight). I enjoyed learning about various conditions such as asthma exacerbation, CHF exacerbation, opioid overdose and various bites and wounds . Moreover, the entire staff in the emergency department was absolutely lovely. I was even allowed to assist in some nursing procedures and overall learned a lot about the workflow in the ED.I value the guidance and also the autonomy I was given to interview and work-up patients on my own. This was one of the best hands on experiences I have had.While I have worked in a U.S. emergency department before (research), I have never worked up a patient in the ED. There is no direct equivalent to emergency medicine in Poland and I value being able to have this experience during a Covid year and being able to obtain a letter of recommendation with which to apply to EM.YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes! I was sold on the company after being placed in contact with a former student who could tell me about his experience. I had used one other company in the past, which did not work well for me because they would not respond to my questions and concerns. Medclerkships responded promptly and worked around my hectic schedule. I also enjoyed the free consultations.IL200EM

11/3/2021 11:41Gurraj10/4/2021Psychiatry HoustonI had a phenomenal experience with my preceptor. A specific experience that stood out for me was one day during morning rounds, the preceptor told me to take the lead with all the patient interviews and follow-ups and that was the first time when I truly felt that calling inside saying “this is the right field for you”. I took the initiative and saw every patient that day. Following days when things weren’t extremely hectic, the preceptor would let me take the lead again. Not only was that important in refining my skills in history taking and mental status exam taking, but helped build my confidence a lot.When you watch this preceptor in his element, practicing Psychiatry and engaging with his patients, you really appreciate the fundamentals of Psychiatry. The preceptor was an expert at communication skills while showing empathy that you’re left amazed at how he was able to get the necessary information from the patient for a diagnosis and further treatment planning. It’s such a benefit because you appreciate and realize that this is how you would want to emulate yourself as a psychiatrist.Since the preceptor was very well established and had interviewed candidates for residency in the past, he would sometimes ask you questions he would ask in residency interviews. When I tell you those questions really made you think, they definitely made you think outside of the box. It helped me mentally prepare myself for any curve ball questions I probably won’t see coming, but will be ready for now. YesStrongly Agree – 5I was extremely happy with the service provided by Medclerkships. Not only were they quick in replying back, they would assist me immediately whenever I had any questions or doubts. The background paperwork needed for the rotation was done efficiently and I had no trouble upon arrival at my rotation site with any outstanding documentation. It was a smooth first experience and I’m very happy I went with Medclerkships. TX300PS

Dr T held regular discussions to engage all of us in diagnostic procedures and management. In a field of cardiology, he pushed us and educated us regularly. It was inpatient more than outpatient, which I preferred as well. As a hospitalist, he took us through many more procedures and it was a rewarding education and exposure with him. He also took us through prepping for the main interview for the match.
I followed Dr I in his clinic and he was a good instructor who helped us all feel grounded and made the team work well under him. I was well exposed to clinical setups and was able to add to that with Dr I.
The exposure in cardiology, to the cases, inpatient and outpatient were immeasurable to me as a graduate looking for a future in this field.
In internal medicine, it was the set up and comfort of routine, working quickly through cases and through patients.

He never lost a smile on his face. Since I had been practicing in my clinic, I could apply his way of dealing with picky patients when I returned to my country. When I started the rotation, I wasn’t used to the strong accent patients were talking in. However, I improved my language skill and could experience real clinical stuff by participating in practice at Dr. K’s clinic. He generously let me do that. That truly helped me a lot pass step2 CS at once. I could never have passed the exam If I hadn’t had the experience. As I mentioned, his way of dealing with patients still helps my practice.

That was so weird; Dr. R seemed to get baffled as well. It would not have been reassuring if Dr. R had not tried to find an alternative. Fortunately, he could squeeze me into an externship position in a better hospital’s ER. I had an excellent experience there. Dr. R’s medical knowledge was incredible. I, also as a practitioner, could evaluate someone’s ability by working with him(her). He’s not a mediocre doctor. Moreover, his way of teaching students – including me – was the most impressive.

He teaches how to treat patients by establishing patient doctor relationships, thorough physical examination( which is rarely done these days in any clinics) and evidence based research directed treatment to his patients. 3 best things I learned as a doctor from him are :
1.Take care of your patient.
2. Do your history and physical again if you are not sure about your diagnosis
3. Take time to talk and explain each and everything to your patients. Create a safe space with your patient.
This experienced helped me curate myself as a better doctor, old school medicine and experience reminded me core values to be a doctor.

So one of goals for my residency application that I had was to show how I am adaptable and take a challenge head on.

My preceptor has been nothing short of patient and he teaches very clearly. He allowed me to follow up a couple of his patients and his patients love him so do the staff that work with him.
1. It’s always okay to ask for help and that in-fact it’s encouraged.
2. Always giving everything a humble shot. Interns are there to learn and that’s what’s expected of us.

He also took the time and discussed my performance and strengths and highlighted the areas I need to focus on in order to be a competitive applicant and competent surgeon at the end of the rotation which I appreciate. Learnt to access and use the EMR, present cases, present topics in the journal club and attend meetings with the team and participate in case discussions.
The preceptor helped in inculcating and applying critical thinking skills in surgical cases.
His guidance and tips on how to approach my application and match cycle for surgical residency.
Shadowing and networking with the other surgeons of the team.
Since this was my first rotation in the US, the inputs that my preceptor gave and the time I spent shadowing his team gave me an idea about how training/ working as a surgeon in the US would be. I have clarity on how the system works and the things I need to focus on to match successfully.
YesStrongly Agree – 5The customer service provided by the team was good, I received prompt responses from the team and Mr Martinez checked in to see if I am satisfied with the rotation a couple of weeks into the rotation which I appreciate.
The only problem was with respect to the vaccine status which could have been confirmed and handled before the rotation started and not halfway into it since I had to coordinate with my doctor in NJ, request a new card and then re-take the vaccine.

3/9/2022 19:05Thrinatha1/10/2022Internal medicine MarylandDr. G is the preceptor for my first rotation ever in the US. I had so many fears and self doubt, when I was rotating here and was also making blunders when asked questions, but Dr. G has always corrected me with me a smile, suggested to read specific topics. Since it’s a limited student rotation, I got a one on one learning experience from the preceptor., which really helped me personally to be more open about myself.
All I can say is, if you’re outgoing and confident, you can start taking history and come to a differential diagnosis and discuss with the preceptor right after., see the lab reports and much more.
Case knowledge
And how to deal the case., stepwise
Since this is my first rotation, the interaction with my preceptor and patients boosted my confidence for my future interactions.
otherwise I’m really not an outgoing person.

Dr. T is one of the most intelligent doctors I have met in my journey. He always encouraged his students to not just be doctors but always makes sure that our interests outside medicine are never neglected. His expertise with the ECG’s and skills in the Cath lab have definitely inspired me to pursue cardiology as a profession.

8/27/2022 5:37Sobaina7/4/2022Gastroenterology Queens, Newyork Doctor S is one of the best supervisors I have worked with. Her dedication to her profession and to teaching her students was incredible. She made sure to teach her students the most she could in the limited period of time. There was this one time when I felt really overwhelmed by how smart the other students working with me were since they had already taken their steps, she took a notice and made sure that I knew I was doing good. I am grateful to have worked with such an amazing preceptor. Other than learning about various Gastroenterology procedures, and medical ethics, one of the major things I learnt was time management and study techniques. Doctor S’s form of teaching was simply amazing and I got to learn how to make the best use of my time.
Secondly, with her way of making us do presentations on a different Gastroenterology topic everyday, I got learn about almost all the major pathologies of Gastroenterology in a very short time.
These benfits have definitely helped me level up my medical school grades since I am still a med student. Her teaching methodology is something that is gonna stay with me until I match into a residency programme. YesStrongly Agree – 5Medclerkships Team was very helpful through out the entire process.

I got to work with him and learn how he compassionately interacted with patients and delivered healthcare of the highest order. That left me inspired and happy of my opportunity to work with Dr. F. The benefits that most helped me were learning to manage patients of different ages and cultures, and learning to handle and work the Electronic Medical Record system and teach them to other tele students.Being the first point of contact of the general population with healthcare system, how to manage variegated pts with empathy, and how to access and work the EMR, to name a few, are the skills needed to be a good practising general physician, and those are few skills I was honored enough to have learned and refined under the tutelage of Dr. F.

I also learned how to perform procedures more quickly in-keeping with his methodologies. These benefits have helped to make me a more efficient practitioner when I enter an Ob/Gyn residency. By following Dr. H’s outpatient examples, patients will receive from me much more focused diagnostic and prognostic information.

With her help I now have full clarity on many normal vs abnormal findings in the head to toe examination. Dr. F and her nurses were so wonderful and kindhearted, and they created a very comfortable environment for every student to feel close enough to clear all doubts and have equal opportunities in the work place. I learned abundantly on how to interact with patients, especially children with care and compassion. I also learned a lot on how to deduce some of the more complicated diagnoses, while also getting the chance to strengthen all my basics in Pediatrics.Since Dr. F made sure that I took all the patients history and went through the questionnaires on my own, I got to practice my patient interacting skills a lot. Also being more hand-on helped me overcome my fear of interacting with very young kids. Also I have a better idea of what the more efficient questions to ask are.YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes, for the most part everything went well. The only minor issue I had was on the first day – I went to the clinic as per my provided dates. On arriving, I was informed there that the preceptor did not see patients at that clinic on that day of the week. This was difficult for me since I had to travel 2.5 hours to get there, only to be turned back immediately. Other than that, everything else went smoothly; the preceptor was aware of my joining, it was all taken care of, and I had a great experience!

6/6/2023 18:59samay5/1/2023cardiologyhoustonOne of the experiences with the preceptor that I found very useful was during our inpatient hospital rounds where the preceptor went to see the patient post surgery after atherectomy procedure. He then made us involved and allowed us to examine the patient and quizzed us on the causes of PAD, symptoms, guidelines and treatment modalities. He explained the various surgical treatment options and benefits of each and why he chose one over the other.I have learnt how clinicians in the US incorporate new research evidence into practice. The preceptor was regularly in touch with upcoming research and used this to alter his practice – for example he would offer patients new cholesterol medications based on new evidence and give the patients realistic expectations.Has helped me gain better insight into US healthcare system and how the doctors practice. And helped me network with other students and doctors which will be useful in future applications.YesStrongly Agree – 5great customer service. quick replies. detailed responses. reassuring.TX300IMCIC

6/30/2023 19:40saurodeep6/5/2023GastroenterologyLake Jackson, TXOn 28th june , 2023 , Dr M surprised me by asking if I would like to join him and his family for Eid celebration.He took me in his car after he had wrapped up work at the office,sharing lots of stories and tales of wisdom along the way.After we reached his sister’s place, he personally introduced me to each and every member of his family,who greeted me very warmly. Afterwards,we sat down for dinner and he gave me a lot of tips regarding applying for residency. Later,he took me to his house to spend the night so that I would not have to drive all the way back to my hotel (60 miles away). The next morning ,he even made me a cup of coffee, boiled eggs and cookies.The fact that a person of such great caliber would be so humble and down to earth as to not only invite a stranger to his home , who he had known for just a few weeks,but also make breakfast,touched my heart and soulI have learnt a lot of things for my mentor Dr M, such as how we should treat a patient completely (physical,spiritual and emotional)and not just their symptoms.He taught me how to carefully elicit history,teasing out certain findings that would help me clinch the diagnosis.He painstakingly explained each and every sign and symptom and also asked me questions so that I would remember better.He gave me an assignment everyday so that I could discuss that topic with him the next day.He showed me how to handle the EMR(electronic medical record).Finally,he showed me a lot of endoscopic procedures,some of which I had never seen before,and also explained the findings to me

Dr M is one of the best doctor and human being I have ever met , and I wish he had been my teacher in medical school.I strongly recommend others to try a rotation at lake jackson with him and his team(who are extremely smart,supportive and kind as well )
The knowledge imparted upon me by Dr M will help me immensely in my preparation for USMLE step 3 , along with providing me with a smooth introduction into the inner workings of the american healthcare system.Watching him perform endoscopies quickly and efficiently inculcated a sense of calm control in me,and motivated me to also pursue my dream of becoming a gastroenterologist in the United States more seriouslyYesStrongly Agree – 5I’m very happy with the prompt service provided by Medclerkship. My only request is to have a response system on weekends/holidays, in case any student wants to reach out regarding something urgent.In my case, I did not know where I had to report on my first day,and I had a difficult time trying to find that out since no one was answering emails/texts/calls.I was finally able to get a hold of Mr Dan , who immediately gave me the required detailsTX300GA

7/13/2023 19:34Sudheera6/12/2023Interventional cardiology HoustonDr. P is a very passionate doctor and an enthusiastic teacher. One day I made a presentation on a topic related to cardio-oncology. Dr. P not only listened to the entire presentation, but also took nearly 45 mins after the presentation to teach me about “myocardial strain†– something that I wasn’t sure of while I was presenting. He patiently answered all my questions. That learning session was truly an inspiring experience for me.There are many, but the 3 most important benefits are:
1) learnt how to bond with patients by proper communication.
2) had the opportunity to observe interventional procedures in cardiology.
3) this experience reignited my interest in interventional cardiology.
1)This rotation gave me a good outpatient USCE with exposure to cath lab procedures, which is definitely a plus point in my residency application. I feel, I can talk about a lot of interesting cases in my interviews after this rotation.
2) it has also taught me the importance of team work ability, dedication and communication- most important traits for my successful future career.
YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes, Dr. Madhu and Dan have helped me find this rotation, even in a very short notice. I initially had several questions, but they were very patient to answer them all. I really appreciate their help and am fully satisfied with Med-clerkships.TX301IMCIC

7/22/2023 10:55Shanyan6/12/2023Pathology Tucson (teleUSCE)Dr. T demonstrated a high level of professionalism and dedication to the teaching profession. With his comprehensive preparations, we were able to be exposed to many well-classified cases. Dr. T can answer all our question immediately with sufficient evidence. Besides the knowledge I learned, what impressed me most was the importance of “carefulness†for a pathologist. Dr. T always mentioned, the diagnosis from pathologists significantly affected, most of time, “determined†the therapeutic strategies of other parts of the medical care. During this rotation, Dr. T tried to generate “good habits†for us. For example, he would stop us if we gave a quick “diagnosis†of the cases and asked us to start from the “descriptionsâ€, such as the locations, staining methods and features. We kept on adding descriptions until we have on more information, then we could give our diagnosis. It is true that for a pathologist, especially as a rookie, I should never consider the real cases were “straight forwardâ€, and we are “smart “enough. Carefulness is the priority. YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes. Fast response and nice.RES302PTH

I remember that when I was feeling sick on the morning of a day of my rotation, I was not sure about if I will be able to report to the office in the morning and when I told Dr L that I’m not feeling well, he assured me to make myself feel better, not worry about the day and get enough rest. It felt so sweet and nice.
I have always been a strong believer to make every patient comfortable and mentally relaxed with the doctor and I found that Dr L does the same with his patients everyday everytime which made me enjoy more while working under him.

10/7/2023 12:57Shanyan5/19/1984PathologyDecatur and Marietta, GAAlthough I had always known that attention to detail is vital in pathology, I saw its importance in surprising ways. For example, I noted that when an “unexpected†piece of tissue appeared on a slide, the pathologists did not disregard it as mere “contaminationâ€. Instead, I learned to track such anomalies back to the source, auditing experimental procedures, comparing slides with others in the set, and meticulously recording all details. I learned to start my analysis considering all possible factors until I accumulate enough information to arrive at a diagnosis with confidence.Such attention to detail improves quality in our samples and procedures, and, ultimately, enhances patient safety, develops “good habits†for the pathology residency training.YesStrongly Agree – 5GA300PTH

9/24/2024 13:04Ajzal9/2/2024NeurologyQueens, New YorkI worked under Dr. E for 4 weeks. It was a wonderful experience. This was my first experience on the American medical system. They showed how the electric medical records worked, how to strengthen my clinical skills and exams, take history, manage patients with the best and newer medications. I use “they” because all the staffs here welcomed me and made me feel like home. I was taught how to give botox, occipital nerve block,trigger point injections, infusions. I will surely miss working and studying here.Working under one of the leading neurologists in the country surely has its perks. I got to see rare cases like Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, Cerebral Palsy with Parkinsonism, Hemiplegic migraines, POTS syndrome and many more. I was able to understand the techniques for botox for migraines, spasms. I was also introduced to the concept of Peptide therapy. Management with CGRP blockers, monoclonal antibodies for migraines was taught. Last but not the least, the neurological examination in exquisite detail.I am gonna do my usmle step 2 pretty soon. The cases and it’s management have accentuated my knowledge on the neurological system. The LOR is surely gonna boost my CV when I opt for Neurology in the future. The main reason for my plan for residency here was to learn about the newer medications, treatment modalities and I have.YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes. The replies were super fast. If there was an issue, they made sure to let me know about it and suggested a way out of it. Thank you Medclerkships for making it easier. I have already made another program the next month under Medclerkships.NY100NEU

10/27/2024 21:19Nethra9/16/2024Internal medicineDallasThe preceptor took time out each day to answer any questions I had, which helped consolidate my learning. We also analysed research articles and discussed how these contribute to the practise of evidence based medicine and formation of medical guidelines. This was an enlightening experience as it taught me to critically analyse the evidence provided for any bias and applying the findings to relevant clinical scenarios.This experience provided a valuable insight into the structure and delivery of healthcare in the US. The preceptor also highlighted the importance of taking a thorough history and conducting a focused clinical examination in a consultation to formulate a differential diagnosis. Diagnostic tests are supportive tools to aid this process, rather than solely relying on them to provide answers. This shift in perspective has empowered me to take a more proactive role in patient care, encouraging me to integrate clinical findings with test results to arrive at a well-rounded diagnosis.My time at this placement helped illustrate the nuances of the US healthcare system and how patient care is delivered here. This knowledge is crucial for my residency application as it will demonstrate my competence and willingness to learn and adapt to a new healthcare system. The clinical and communication skills I learned here will also help me demonstrate my skill as a doctor and ensure effective patient care in my future practice. The preceptor was also very helpful in answering questions regarding residency applications and what is expected of aspiring doctors, which I feel provided useful insight into this process and boosted my confidence.YesStrongly Agree – 5Yes, the Medclerkships team were always very prompt with clearing any questions and ensured this placement went smoothly.TX300DIM
