Graduate school presents challenging curriculum and wonderful learning opportunities. Too bad more of those learning opportunities aren’t focused on learning hands-on skills like suturing, joint injections, trigger point injections, incision and drainage, or even biopsy.
34 topics and 13 closure techniques, the Advanced Suture Course will make you a suturing rock star.
Want to bring immediate pain relief to your patient? How about gaining an understanding of dry needling and trigger points?
Learn to see what lies beneath.... the skin! Know when to keep that scalpel sheathed or bring our the sharps to drain that abscess.
Almost ready to launch. Is it an ocular abrasion or foreign body? Or perhaps your patient has acute closed angle glaucoma? Learn fluorescein staining, wood's lamp evaluation, tonometry, foreign body removal with algerbrush burr tool, and more.
Internal medicine can be scary. We don't know what we don't know. With the Internal Medicine Bootcamp, you'll be given over 100 treatment algorithms for the most common inpatient conditions. You'll also dive deep into how we run lab tests and what those results actually tell us. Get ready to dig deep on this one.
Your patient has a skin lesion or rash... now what? Through the magic of biopsy (wow!) you too can take a piece of your patient to the pathologist for a real medical diagnosis.
To cut, or not to cut. Cellulitis or abscess. Know the answer with this insightful learning module.
Teeth can hurt! So can migraines and different parts of the face. Broken bones and lacerations hurt, too. Learn how to turn off that pain!
