OBGYN-Rotation Reflection
Types of patients you found challenging in this rotation and what you learned about dealing with them After finishing my whole rotation, I found OB patients to be challenging for me.

There are also different tests that needed to be order based on trimester. I found that there are no short cuts to learn this. I have learned that the more OB patients I get to see in clinic, in labor and delivery, and during postpartum rounds, the …

Psych-Rotation Reflection
Types of patients you found challenging in this rotation and what you learned about dealing with them In this rotation, I saw many patients came in for disorganized behaviors, which usually due to non-complaint with medications. Most of the time, the family members or friends were the first person who noted the patient’s symptoms. Due to the disorganization, the patient also presents poor insight.

They had lack of awareness of their illness. Patient’s failure to adhere …
