Whether you are a senior medical student, a resident, or an attending, at some point you will have learners working alongside you. In this video, I break down what has actually worked for me when teaching medical students and residents: setting clear expectations from day one, teaching clinical reasoning instead of trivia, making it safe to say "I don't know," giving learners real responsibility, and taking them behind the scenes of life in medicine.
This one is for anyone in medicine who supervises, teaches, or mentors someone more junior, and for learners who want to know what a great rotation should look like. Good teaching is how the culture of medicine changes, one rotation at a time.

About Me
I am a physician (M.D.) practicing a mix of hospitalist medicine, and urgent care. I learned a lot in my journey to becoming a physician and about more than just medicine. Follow along as I reflect and teach what I wish I knew, which for the most part, is the stuff you don’t learn in school.
