Course description

The primary goal of this Surgery Specialties course is to allow the students to gain exposure to patients with common and serious Orthopaedic & Ophthalmologic Surgical problems; to learn how patients with these conditions present clinically, to develop history taking and physical examination skills in these particular patient populations, to learn the role of investigations for these patients and to develop an understanding of the treatment principles, both operative and non-operative, for patients with these conditions. To gain the relevant clinical exposure, as much time as possible should be spent in the clinics, on the wards and where feasible, in the operating room. The aim is have students ¿intern ready¿ with respect to diagnosis, investigation, and management including appropriate time for referral with respect to orthopaedic and ophthalmologic conditions.
