Interning Abroad
August 19, 2024by: Maanasvi Giridhar - IndiaProgram: Shadow Doctors in Italy's Best Hospitals - 40 to 90 HoursThe 2-week Milan Fellowship I attended was very thoughtful structured according to the our liking and interest. Throughout these two weeks I had the opportunity to observe and shadow doctors in almost 5departments as well be present in the operating room for 6 procedures. Although the primary interactions were completely in Italian the Doctor in charge translated all the case details the best he/she could. Even though this course dosen’t require knowing the language, I do suggest that having some knowledge of Italian would definitely go a long way. But, overall this program is a great balance of work, travel experiences and an opportunity to make new friends as well as build connections:)
The best experience ever!
August 14, 2024by: Maha Hussaini - United StatesProgram: Shadow Doctors in Italy's Best Hospitals - 40 to 90 HoursI had such an amazing time in Italy. I was able to learn so much about the medical field in other countries and was able to meet so many great people. We had plenty of time to explore Italy and spend time enjoying the culture.
