"A Day With The Doc"

"A Day With The Doc" program is for our medical students who want to know more about a particular specialty and a typical day as a physician.  We have many UT Southwestern alumni that practice in the DFW area that have signed up to participate in the program.

Once in medical school, time with physicians serves a new purpose because difficult decisions remain - particularly the decision about specialty.  Perhaps some students enter UT Southwestern Medical School knowing exactly what specialty they want and never change their mind.  On the other hand, most students change their mind at least once.  That is why this program is so important.  It is designed to connect students with doctors and their experiences.

The medical school curriculum is well suited to training students for a residency program.  And of course, clinical training experiences in the 3rd year are important in making a specialty choice, as are our efforts to provide as much information as possible to help students make the best choices.  But there is no substitute for the opportunity to benefit from the experience of a practicing physician, particularly someone with whom the student shares at least one thing in common - Southwestern.

This alumni/student interface will be of significant assistance to our students.  It is a real gift.
