Greater Greensboro Society of Medicine mini-internship
Tomorrow and Wednesday I'll be taking part in the 14th annual Greater Greensboro Society of Medicine mini-internships. In this program, interns are paired up with primary-care physicians (1 day) and surgeons (1 day) and get to follow them ... well, basically everywhere, with very few exceptions. The idea is to give lay people in the community (my fellow interns include business people and clergy, among others) a first-hand look at how health care works from the doctor's perspective.
If there's anything in particular you're curious about, leave a note or question in the comments and I'll see if I can get an answer or description for you.
