Physiatry Clerkship Guide

On behalf of the AAP Medical Student Council Education/Wellbeing Committee, we are excited to release the first edition of the Physiatry Clerkship Guide. We know there are many excellent resources (cited in this guide) that provide comprehensive information on patient conditions and management. We hope this guide helps provide framework to appy that information in clinical settings and excel as physicians in training while on your rotations!

We are very appreciative of the members of the AAP Education Committee and the Medical Student Educators Council for their guidance in overseeing this project. We are also grateful to the many mentors, attendings, residents, and patients who have taught us along the way, and whose lessons are undoubtedly reflected in the contents of this guide.

– AAP Medical Student Council Members Ellese Lupori, Natalie Stagnone, Annie Du & Joel Kopcow

It is not reflective of any grading or expectations that you may encounter on your respective rotations. While every effort has been made to ensure accuracy and relevance, this guide should be used as a supplemental tool, not as a definitive source of information.
