SURG M982Minimally Invasive Surgery0
This clinical elective provides students with an opportunity to participate in the Minimally Invasive and Bariatric Surgery clinical program. Students will see and provide multidisciplinary care for a high volume of patients seeking surgical treatment for their morbid obesity. Our multidisciplinary team includes surgeons, physician-extenders, dietitians, psychologists, nurses, and others, providing care to patients in the same outpatient setting. Students will also provide care to a spectrum of patients requiring emergent and elective general surgery. Surgical procedures will be primarily focused on minimal access surgical techniques, including laparoscopic and robotic surgery. In support of the educational focus, we utilize multiple venues (outpatient clinic, operating room, and inpatient surgical units) to help students hone their skills in all areas of surgical practice.
