Event Year: 2022

I had the opportunity to shadow Dr. Adams, a pediatric rheumatologist at Wayne Pediatrics. Both Dr. Adams and his fellow were wonderful teachers; I sincerely appreciated their willingness to explain concepts both in the patient room and between patient visits. I was included in patient interviews and physical exams, and learned about the some of the additional factors that need to be considered in treatment plans for pediatric autoimmune conditions. It was a wonderful learning experience overall, and I'm so grateful to Dr. Adams and his staff for dedicating their time to Wayne medical students.
