Subspecialty Clinics Elective Information
Course Contact: Dr. Shannon Scott-Vernaglia, but you arrange clinics yourself
Goals and Objectives of Rotation:
The purpose is to expose residents to various aspects of sub-specialty pediatrics. Sometimes residents will put together a 2 week elective rotation made up of a clinics from a variety of subspecialties (i.e. spend one day with derm and then one day with ortho etc). The faculty need to be contacted directly prior to starting the elective to determine availability for clinic sessions. They are not expecting you unless you call ahead.
