Description
This elective offers combined additional training in maternal/infant medicine designed to better prepare senior medical students interested in entering the field of Family Practice. It is only the family physician who cares for the woman in labor and immediately assumes care of the newborn infant as well. The model synthesizes this dual role in a manner that approximates the roles that family practice residents and physicians assume.
