Comments from Students:

“Everyone at this site was very dedicated to providing me with the best educational experience possible. Both attending and residents were available to me for questions assistance, and they all seemed to take a sincere interest in my role at their clinic.”

“The faculty, residents and office staff were incredible people to work with. I not only enjoyed working with them on a daily basis, but I learned an amazing amount from each of them. The residents at PBH are FANTASTIC! They work hard and it shows. But most importantly, they like working with medical students are are eager to share their knowledge.”

“The autonomy is great. I had lots of freedom to go see patients and write notes. I also got great feedback on presentation skills from the attending/preceptors.”
