Stetson Lee Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine is looking to
hire five recent college graduates and aspiring doctors for its year-long, paid
internship program which started in 2007. This internship is designed to
provide practical experience to college graduates bound for medical school. The
interns work directly with the physicians and will learn how to take medical
histories, document patient present illnesses, review X-ray and MRI results
from the in-office X-ray and MRI machines, and to synthesize information into
possible diagnoses. The interns will have the opportunity to attend both
arthroscopic and open surgery of the shoulder, knee, elbow, hip, and ankle.
They will engage in ongoing research projects with the goal of publishing their
projects in peer-reviewed journals. Finally, the interns have the opportunity
to learn the business side of medicine by sitting in on business and financial
meetings of the group and occasionally assisting with the overall operation of
the office.
The internship program begins each year around June first and lasts roughly
thirteen months. Qualifications are that students must have recently graduated
from a university, taken the MCAT, and plan on attending medical school.
Interest in Orthopedics is preferred, but not required as this experience will
help all aspiring doctors.
