Undergraduate

The Ophthalmology Undergraduate Medical Education is a well received program with the Undergraduate Medical Education Department. Over the years, many changes have occurred with the restructuring of the Eye Clinics from all three sites to one site. The ability to provide basic ophthalmic teaching during the one week selective provided through the Department of Surgery is challenging and rewarding.

Third Year Clinical Clerks enjoy the interaction with the consultant staff and resident staff. The teaching provided by the residents is greatly appreciated and the clinical clerks often comment on being part of the “team” when seeing patients. Comments have been received that this is one of the best rotations for only one week. 

The Fourth Year Elective Students that rotate through the department through the year rate the consultants and residents highly. Comments have been received that this is one of the best organized rotations and the ability to be able to attend the informal and formal teaching sessions is appreciated.
