Are there medical students at the Oakland Kaiser campus? Are student clerkships available?
Yes. We have a very active clerkship program and include medical students in every aspect of their patient’s care. We have 4th year students on general medicine wards, cardiology, critical care, pulmonary, rheumatology, hematology/oncology, nephrology, infectious diseases, gastroenterology and neurology. Medical students have lively small group sessions each week with our program director, Dr. Tom Baudendistel and our chief residents. Our residents enjoy the additional teaching opportunity and camaraderie the students add to the team. Please see our clerkship section to apply, or contact our program coordinator (medicine.oakmeded@kp.org) for more information.
