In the mid-rotation evaluation site visit, I present a case on uterine fibroid because that is the first uterine fibroid case that I have seen in my clinical year. The patient is very young and not sexually active. She thinks the prolonged bleeding is just her normal menstruation. I find the topic to be very interesting and therefore I also search up for the management of uterine fibroid. The article that I have presented based on the case is Percutaneous High Frequency Microwave Ablation of Uterine Fibroids. Then I also get quizzed on pharm cards.
In the final evaluation site visit, I present a case on acute bacterial upper respiratory infection. The reason for choosing this case is that upper respiratory infection is very commonly seen in family medicine. Providers have to consider whether or not to prescribe antibiotics, and which antibiotic is more beneficial for the patient. Then I also get quizzed on pharm cards just like the mid-rotation evaluation site visit.
My site evaluator doesn’t comment much on my SOAP notes. However, she provides suggestion on my presentation. She suggests that I should try to not read off the paper when giving the presentation and that I can work on journal presentation. When I am presenting cases in the future, I will try to make more eye contact instead of reading off my paper. In addition, I will read my journal/article more thoroughly before the site evaluation presentation in order to avoid reading off the summary.
