Center for Mentorship in Medicine
About Us
The Center for Mentorship in Medicine is dedicated to the design and implementation of novel educational programs to provide high quality clinical training, mentorship and coaching to medical students, with a focus on both the science and art of medicine.
Over the years, the landscape of medical education has evolved due to increasing pressures on teaching faculty and medical training system requirements, making it challenging to provide patient care while also teaching/mentoring medical students. The overall mission of our Center is to train the next generation of physicians to provide quality, empathic and compassionate care to our patients in this new environment.
