Residency Clerkship Opportunities

As a fourth year medical student, we realize  that your time is valuable. We have designed clerkship opportunities to mimic the field of Family Practice. Like practice, you will be able to design the type of rotation that you desire. Our opportunities include the inpatient service , OB , procedure clinic , and clinic sessions at the FMC .

For OU students, you may register for these electives through the Dean's office. Ask for FM 9568. Visiting students need to submit the appropriate forms to the Family Medicine Department. We will forward these to the office of the Dean for you. We will be happy to help you through this procedure in any way. Dr. Rhonda Sparks is the faculty contact that arranges the schedules for the clerkship.

FM 9568 FAMILY MEDICINE EXTERNSHIP-OUHSC CAMPUS

Provides students with a clinical experience in the full spectrum of Family Medicine practice. Rotation focus will be on comprehensive evaluation and management of patients presenting with a broad spectrum of problems in the outpatient setting. Students will work with residents and faculty in the OU Department of Family Medicine Center. Each student should contact the externship coordinator prior to the elective rotation. This will allow each student to focus rotation experience on several available areas of family medicine practice including: obstetrics and women's health, geriatrics, sports medicine, inpatient medicine on the family medicine service, or clinical decision-making.
