(orchestral music)

00:00:05.640 --> 00:00:07.800
UNMC has a particular focus, I think,

00:00:07.800 --> 00:00:11.940
on underserved populations and as someone who hopes

00:00:11.940 --> 00:00:15.990
to eventually return to practicing in Omaha

00:00:15.990 --> 00:00:18.090
with the urban underserved population

00:00:18.090 --> 00:00:20.100
that was particularly important to me

00:00:20.100 --> 00:00:23.700
and I have felt that decision be reinforced

00:00:23.700 --> 00:00:25.680
throughout my clinical years particularly.

00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:27.900
My favorite experiences has been to be able

00:00:27.900 --> 00:00:31.080
to use the different simulators that they have.

00:00:31.080 --> 00:00:34.020
I have been able to practice on a Da Vinci robot

00:00:34.020 --> 00:00:35.490
during my surgical clerkship

00:00:35.490 --> 00:00:37.920
and then different activities that we have had.

00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.050
It is really important to be able to practice on a mannequin

00:00:40.050 --> 00:00:43.203
before practicing those skills on a real patient.

00:00:44.130 --> 00:00:47.460
So I was definitely able to at least go through the steps

00:00:47.460 --> 00:00:52.200
of different procedures and felt great about that.

00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:54.870
Just the ability to be hands-on,

00:00:54.870 --> 00:00:56.040
take ownership of your patients,

00:00:56.040 --> 00:00:57.660
like be involved in the treatment and care plan,

00:00:57.660 --> 00:01:00.270
and like preparing you to be on your own earlier

00:01:00.270 --> 00:01:02.823
than maybe some other programs.
