This is an outpatient experience during which you will be under the supervision of a well regarded physician educator who is board certified in Cardiology.

Who should consider this rotation:

How to obtain a letter of recommendation:

The rotator should ask the preceptor for a LOR near the conclusion of the rotation. Dr. Desai has provided the physician with guidelines about best practices in letter writing that meet residency program requirements. In some cases, the preceptor may ask the rotator to write a letter of recommendation draft.

During the rotation:

Our team will be checking in periodically with you to ensure that you are having an optimal experience. We encourage you to contact us if you have any questions during the rotation.

Testimonials

Dr. X is different. Really different preceptor in the way that he does not apply premade learning program to his students. He rather observes your weaknesses and strengths and creates conditions to test you in that areas and teaches you with his own perspective about how he can improve your skill sets. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to meet with him. I am really thankful for his teaching, caring and pushing me every week.
