Rheumatology Consult
Rotations on the Rheumatology service will be two weeks in length. Residents will attend weekly Rheumatology Division didactic clinical lectures and basic science conferences. Residents will prepare a didactic conference and provide an in-depth review of some aspect of the basic science or a clinical problem related to the rheumatic diseases. Supervision will be provided by Rheumatology faculty, assisted by the Rheumatology fellow(s).
Goals & Objectives
Before You Start
- On the day before your consult rotation, page the Rheumatology Fellow. Find out if you should get sign-out on any inpatient consults and what you should expect the first day of your rotation (when to round, where to meet, any didactics or clinic, etc.).
- Remember, Rheumatology has outpatient clinic on Thursday mornings in Clinic E. You will usually start your morning in clinic and then see consults later.
- To determine the Rheumatology Fellow on call, go to the OV Intranet > Department of Medicine page. Or call the Operator by dialing “0” and ask for the Rheumatology Fellow on-call. Then to page the fellow, log-in to AMION, go to paging, find the Fellows drop-down menu, and select the appropriate fellow.
