Episode 019 - Special Episode: OMED reactions from the medical student’s perspective

Following the wrap of OMED on 10/31, Jason was contacted by Student Doctor Swetha Chengalvala, OMS-II of NY Touro School of Osteopathic Medicine regarding the experience from a student’s perspective. After further talking they decided that this would be a GREAT topic for a Special Pedscast episode, and as they say... the rest is history!!

In this special episode Jason and Scott sit down the Swetha and her classmate Student Doctor Dana Nissan, OMS-II to discuss not only their highlights and takeaways from their first OMED experience, but also the importance of attending these conference for medical students as both an excellent source of education and a great way to meet other students and practicing physicians in your field. For many of us, mentor-mentee relationships have begun by attending one of the ACOP CME conferences, whether it be in conjunction with OMED in the fall or one of the Spring ACOP only conferences, and these relationships continue to thrive.
