Personal Counseling
The life of a medical student, on the balance, is fun and rewarding, but subject to stress. A huge body of knowledge must be mastered, and new clinical skills must be acquired. And then there are relationships, and family concerns, and the whole range of issues that people normally face.
There are a variety of resources available for students who are feeling strained.
Dean Rodgers - "I strive to be open and accessible to students for any concern they may have. Somtimes a meeting with me is sufficient, but I can also help students arrange longer term therapy if needed. Information is confidential and will not become part of the student's permanent record."
