How a Clinic Works
Intern Project By Tushar Pramod

Background: Over the past month, I was given the assignment of completing an in-depth report comprising of 20 questions pertaining to the various aspects of a clinic. These questions covered a wide range of medical as well as administrational topics, ranging from the organizational structure of the clinic to the diseases that it treated and the lab tests that it carried out. The extensive research that I have done over the past month has greatly improved my knowledge not only of the clinic but also of the medical profession as a whole. Visiting various departments of the clinic and meeting with a few of the physicians, although very briefly, has only intensified my love of the medical profession and for this, I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Mohamed Bessou the Regional Director of Medical Centers – Abu Dhabi and Ms. Paula Marie Manoop for taking time out of their busy schedules to provide me with this wonderful opportunity.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to observe and participate in Missouri State University’s Speech Language and Hearing Clinic because I received hands-on experience and had the ability to interact with a client. Before entering the clinic, I was extremely nervous, but I was excited to begin working with a graduate clinician and client. During my first experience in the clinic, my graduate clinician, Bob, taught me how to collect data. Bob was an excellent mentor because she acted professionally and was open and willing to answer questions. She took the time out of her busy schedule to visually show me her session plans and SOAP notes, so I had a better idea of the paperwork format. Bob had a supportive and positive attitude toward…
