When planning our presentations and activities, we consistently go straight to the greatest source of information we have, the talented family physicians of the Brody School of Medicine. These physicians have a passion to share their experiences and knowledge, often speaking to students on topics such as career options, lifestyles, role models, leadership development, the Match, residency, clinical resources, and technology. Physicians also lead workshops to teach students skills we may not learn in our classroom studies, but will likely need in our future practices. Workshops have included splinting andcasting, suturing, toenail removal, basic obstetrics, and venipuncture.
Beyond campus, FMIG also supports community involvement with preventive medicine efforts, medical skills enhancement, and leadership roles for students wishing to be involved in primary care.
