Clinical Skills are taught in a stepwise curriculum throughout the four years. Students begin in the first quarter learning how to communicate with patients, and how to conduct a physical examination. They put it all together with clinical knowledge and clinical reasoning so that by the end of their second year they are ready to get on the wards and become a part of the teams that are taking care of patients.- Will Harper, MD, Course Director, Clinical Skills Sequence
