476: Practical Primary Care Medicine
Monday1:45 - 3:15
Starting March 04
In-Person
This course will share some practical aspects and approaches to primary care medicine through sharing the SGL's experiences as a primary care physician and administrator. We will discuss some medical coverage and physician selection issues as well as some changes that have come about in health care delivery. Some simple cases will be presented and worked through with the group in order to convey an approach to diagnosing and treating a presenting medical complaint. The course will be participatory, educational, and fun. Physicians and health professionals should not take this course as it would likely be redundant to their knowledge base.
