Heads up, that's a shift from what they used to be. This is a bit of a rug-pull in that they haven't always done forced medical school student one-on-ones with patients. I also think they're leaning into that description more and more as a way to absolve themselves of the ever-lowering scrutiny and quality of care.
To be clear, I think there's a lot of merit to later-year students and residents getting the opportunity to pseudo-practice outside of immediate supervision. My problem is that patients of this clinic don't seem to have a choice over who we'll be seeing. We have to accept someone inexperienced or find a new doctor (almost impossible in urban areas). It's coercive and implies fault with us if we don't like it.
