Student Testimonials
"I came out of the OR with a much better idea of what surgery actually was like, shattering a lot of misconceptions that I had and encouraging me to seriously consider my career options more closely. Furthermore, this experience helped to relieve a lot of the nervousness I had about being in the hospital as a student."
"The biggest takeaway from the shadowing experience was that being in the OR is not as intimidating as it sounds and everyone in the OR was extremely nice and helpful."
"The CABG procedure we saw was relevant to the research my lab does - it was really fun going into the OR with at least some knowledge of what was going on."
"[I enjoyed] being able to look at tools we sort at SHARE being used in a surgery, being able to look at spinal fusion surgery being done in real time."
"The procedure we saw was incredibly interesting; witnessing how a top surgical team treats spinal diseases was pretty awesome, and Dr. ________ was very good about explaining what was happening."
"I loved being able to see the operation and the precision at which Dr. ________ worked. I also loved being within the hospital and OR setting wearing scrubs."
