For medical students One specialty at a time. Anesthesia is live.

Know what you're walking into.

Short orientation courses for the rotations nobody prepares you for, written by physicians who practice the specialty. Watch before day one, so week one isn't spent working out where to stand.

What's next.

Which one gets built next depends largely on what students ask for.

Surgery

The field, scrubbing, retracting, and what the team expects of you.

OB/GYN

Labour and delivery, the pace, and where a student is useful.

Emergency Medicine

Triage, the flow of a shift, and how to pick up a chart.

Internal Medicine

Rounds, notes, and presenting a patient without dread.

Pediatrics

Talking to families, and what changes when the patient is small.

Radiology

Reading room etiquette and how to actually look at a study.

Which rotation do you need?

Tell us the specialty and when you start. It genuinely decides the build order.

Why these exist

Orientation, not a textbook

You already have resources for the medicine. What's missing is the room: who's who, what happens when, and what a student is actually allowed to touch.

Written by someone who works there

Every course is authored by a physician practising that specialty, so the etiquette and the unwritten rules are right, not guessed.

Short on purpose

Under forty minutes, watchable the night before. Long enough to orient you, short enough that you'll actually finish it.

For clerkship directors and programs

Oriented students on day one, and a record to show for it.

Send it to a cohort before their block starts, with data you can put in a clerkship record.
