Third Year Medical Clerkship
in Obstetrics and Gynecology
The third year medical clerkship for Obstetrics
and Gynecology is eight weeks long. A maximum of 20 medical
students are assigned to OB/GYN. The group is split into two.
Each group spends 4 weeks at Bergan Mercy Medical Center and
4 weeks at Creighton University Medical Center. In addition
the group at Creighton is organized into two smaller groups.
These groups spend two weeks focusing on gynecology and two
weeks focusing on obstetrics. All of the students get a variety
of experience in outpatient clinics, inpatient, and surgical
patient care in both obstetrics and gynecology. The students
also,attend rounds,Colposcopy Conference, Complicated OB Conference,
take call, present two topics each, and attend lectures and
Grand Rounds.
Dr. Fleming schedules an individual mid-term
evaluation session with each medical student and provides
a review of the mid-term evaluation in writing. Student feedback
is very important and is reviewed each clerkship. We strive
to provide an exceptional learning experience in our department
therefore many of the adjustments made to our clerkship have
resulted from suggestions or comments made by the medical
students.
A shelf exam is administered at the end of the
clerkship.
