    Students

Medical Students, come on down!
We have one bronco-busting, pedal-to-the-metal experience for you. At Valley Baptist, you will be a team member and a family member. You will work one-on-one with a Family Practice faculty member and upper level resident.
 

Rotation Selections:

1. Outpatient Clinic.
Come for a two- to six-week outpatient medicine experience, complete with hands-on procedures, including colonoscopy, colposcopy, OB ultrasound, laryngoscopy, and treadmill stress tests. Enjoy mission trips, Bible studies and other fellowship activities.

2. Hospital Service.
You may elect to spend all or part of your time on our hospital service. You will gain experience in the emergency room and on the hospital wards and will be involved in cardiac resuscitation, thoracentesis, paracentesis, and obstetrical deliveries.

3. Combo-rotation.
You may do a mix of clinical and hospital work.

These rotations are available for third and fourth year medical students. For more information, eMail Dr. Seth Patterson at seth.patterson@valleybaptist.net.

Applications and Interview:

    We begin accepting ERAS applications in late August. Interviews begin in September and are completed in February. The program pays for the entire cost of your interview including travel, hotel, rental car, and dining expenses. If you rotate with us and interview while you are here, we will pay for the expense of your travel. This includes the expense of your spouse's travel as well.

    From typhoid to typhus, from colonoscopy to colposcopy, from OB deliveries to Friday night football games, we guarantee a blessed medical and spiritual experience here at Valley Baptist.
