Clinical Medicine: Specific
-
Baylor Otolaryngology Page
  
- This site contains the usual information about Baylor's Department of Otolaryngology and information about the residency program. The real gems though, are the full text from over 100
grand rounds on otolaryngologic topics, and links
to many useful otolaryngology resources on the web. The images from the course syllabus were not loading on the day we visited. (reviewed May 27, 1996)
-
Pediatric Points of Interest
  
- Chris Lehmann, M.D., a co-developer of the hugely successful "interactive patient" site at Marshall University has struck gold again with this outstanding resource chuck full of links to pediatric sites on the internet. (reviewed May 27, 1996)
-
Breast
Diseases from McGill University

-
A pretty good place to learn about
the pathophysiology of breast disease and the clinical correlations. Some
sections are very sparse, however, and the site is definitely still under
construction. Some students may find it useful.
-
Clinician's
Guide to Asthma

-
This is a good source of information about asthma and has lots of
information materials which can be printed out and used for patient education.
In fact, the main focus of this page is on teaching the clinician how to instruct their patients on managing their asthma. Clinical students may find this
information useful.
-
Geriatric
Medicine Primer for Medical Students

- This is a good starting place to
learn about how to deal with older patients and what to look for and be sensitive
towards when approaching an elderly patient. This site also makes good use of
interactive quizes to emphasize important concepts.
-
Ophthalmology Cases from
Massachusetts Eye and Ear

- This is a good site to get interesting information
about recent interesting cases in ophthalmology. Should be of use to a clinical
medical student on ophthalmology clerkship.
-
Dermatology
On-line
-
This site has a lot
of dermatology-related photos and a good search engine to give you exactly what
you want, but its a bit sparse on conceptual knowledge of dermatology and a bit
too specifically-targeted for all but the gunner medical student on dermatology
clerkship.
-
The Emergency Medicine Online Reference
  
- With over 600 topics ranging from treatment of tension headaches to wilderness medicine, this is the web site for emergency medicine information. Produced by a collaboration of physicians around the world, this on-line reference is a must visit for those students interested in emergency medicine or for those students doing a rotation in the ER.
