How often are resident clinics held at most programs? From personal experience, at home and away it can range from once weekly to 3 days a week. <some programs are all resident clinics, like NYU for example <thanks!<is resident clinic the same or different than continutiy clinic? Can someone explain this please < It's similar. Depends on the program. Continuity generally means you follow your patients during multiple visits. Resident clinic you see any patient scheduled for that day< But they are typically scheduled at different days, in my experience, residents usually get at least one half day continuity clinic, but get multiple half days weekly for general resident clinic<why wouldnt all clinics just be resident clinics? what the point of attendings clinics ?< Attendings need to see patients for the salary lol....can not make a living by solely staffing in resident clinic. And some patients prefer being seen by attendings < attending clinics end up being a lot of shadowing and writing their notes lol super fun
