THIRD-YEAR CLERKSHIP ONE DAY ROTATION

Welcome to Pediatric Associates, a private pediatric office. We specialize in
the care of infants, children and adolescents. Though many of our physicians
have appointments at the medical school, we are not part of the UVa Health
System. We have three office locations: Downtown, West, and North. During
your third year of medical school, you expect to have more direct patient care encounters. We will do our best to accommodate you while you are with us;however, because the physicians see a high volume of patients there may be times when you will primarily shadow us. We will try to involve you in as many ways as possible. Please feel free to ask questions.

08:15AM Arrive
