Went this morning to my first preceptorship experience. Man, was it great. My preceptor asked tons of questions, thank G-d that I was able to answer most of them. He could of pimped me all the way, but was very kind. Pharm at SMU really prepared me. I saw 6 patients, 5 of which were diabetics. He went into all subjects: neuro, anatomy, pharm, path, etc. He even let me do things like check the patients ears, check their respiration, etc. I felt like I was now in clinicals. He said we would go by systems, and eventually by the end of the semester, I will be doing the whole physical. The patients were nice, and very cooperative.

I would have it no other way. I don't regret coming to SMU from Ross, don't regret coming to Maine. I Love it here.

Some of the attributes of a good physician are a well rounded undergraduate education, good communication skills and attention to detail. Physicians lacking some of these skills would not inspire confidence in their abilities and it's a bit worrisome that some medical students posting here have such poor elementary grammar skills, confusing such things in their posts as of for have or their for there etc.

Might be a major problem when he's prescribing meds huh?
