This involves spending approximately 15 hours per week in a clinic environment, assisting in approximately 50 surgical and endoscopic procedures over the month and daily in-hospital rounds. No night call required. The grade will be determined by an essay exam, course clinical evaluations, submitted history and physical exams, and classroom participation. Elective
