Testimonials

Dr. X was intuitive, very eager to teach and had impeccable communication skills which reflected in every patient encounter. The doctor gave real-life insights and emphasized upon the importance of translating knowledge from books into every day counselling patients and parents. The preceptor was proactive in teaching with didactic seminars, quality improvement initiatives and show-and-teach. There was never a dull moment at the clinics, and the doctor always encouraged me to present histories, examine patients , understand the intricacies of insurance plans, prepare comprehensive treatment plans and fill out records, paperwork and various forms which proved to be very very useful. On the whole, I had a really great experience rotating here and would definitely recommend it to my fellow aspiring pediatricians.
