CLINICAL EXPERIENCE

What sets WUHS clinical program apart, however, is the personalized, hands-on support provided by WUHS faculty at every stage of a student’s clinical rotations.

Small Class . Big Support.

WUHS small class size, combined with our emphasis on personalized learning, means you’ll receive a level of support and guidance during your clinical rotations that simply can’t be matched by bigger schools—particularly those with classes three and four times as big as WUHS.
At every step of your clinical rotations, WUHS faculty will be in contact with your attending physicians and preceptors to monitor your progress.

Clinical, Professional, & Personal

WUHS objective is not only to make sure each student maximizes his or her clinical experience, but also focuses on career planning and personal growth. Additionally, WUHS works with students on the mundane yet vital administrative details that come with clinical rotations, such as housing and scheduling. The result is that WUHS students are able to focus fully on their clinical, professional and personal development during this critical phase of their education, knowing the WUHS team is behind them.
That’s a far cry from the experience at other schools, where students are often on their own once they move on from Basic Sciences.
