Clinical Shadowing

Learning From Experience Professionals

CMMP recognizes the importance of equipping students with opportunities to shadow clinicians in various fields of healthcare and its pivotal role in a student’s path to achieving their educational goals. We are also aware that access to these opportunities might be limited for various reasons. For this reason we have created the CMMP Clinical Shadowing with the assistance of our amazing health professional partners.

Testimonials

  • A’lexus Lofton
    My shadowing experience with Dr. Whitfield was very enjoyable and educational. While shadowing with Dr. Whitfield, I learned how to properly listen to a patient’s heart and lungs, distinguish the difference between type I and type II diabetes, and the normal procedure/steps performed leading up to seeing a patient as well as making a diagnosis.

    I appreciate CMMP for providing me with clinical shadowing experience. With the help of this program,I was able to connect the materials I learned in the classroom to real life experiences. Being able to see and feel what it is like to be a doctor firsthand, made me realize that I am called to practice medicine.

    CMMP has provided me with a number of learning experiences. I was most impressed with observing how the doctors took the time to strengthen the doctor patient relationship and this experience confirmed my decision to become a doctor and affirmed that my passion is genuine.

    Dr. Payne allowed me the opportunity to shadow her in clinic. Seeing her use a punch biopsy tool in a facial cyst removal and Hyfrecator during an angiolipoma removal was amazing. She was also very patient and thorough with answering any questions or comments I had.
