1/9/2014

Hello all from Emily and Cassy here. Today was an amazing day! We ended up treating 21 patients. Some of us were nervous about today and others not, but overall we were all excited! We have seen a wide variety of illnesses today: UTI’s, gastric issues some related to stress, fungal issues, coughs, dermatitis, and more.
The thing that stood out most today was when Dr Lankaster took the time to talk to the patient who had gastric issues that stress was making even worse. She was so kind but very firm, encouraging, and motivating and gave the patient advice on how and where to find work, how to dress for it and everything. We were impressed with the time she took and the advice she gave outside of the specific medical portion of the visit. After clinical some of us gave presentations and the rest will present tomorrow. The evening meals after our clinicals have been delicious and that is coming from a girl who is a very picky eater (CassyJ)! Below are some pictures from our adventures. Enjoy!

  1. I feel that we were blessed by being able to work with such an amazing doctor. Dr. Lankaster was so caring with the patients and always asked how they felt about the treatment plan. She would always make sure that she answered all of our questions as well.
