I would want the student to shadow initially, then gradually take over office appointment wellness exams. Depending on the student's comfort level, interacting with clients to develop diagnostic and treatment plans for medical cases. We see approximately a 60% split of wellness cases, prophylactic medicine and 40% medical cases. We have an emergency hospital 15-20 minutes from us, but see numerous medical cases from other hospitals in the area. I would want the student to be willing and able to work 40-45 hours a week with supervision. I am here 50-60 hours a week, so I would be available / involved at all times. I am a single doctor practice, but busy enough to support two doctors.
