Student Review
"I loved the clinical experience I received from my site. The amount of exposure I obtained and the learning that came along with it has been immensely valuable to me. From ABJ, I saw so many patients and disease. As for Hines, I am now able to confidently perform low vision exams! My time at JBVA was also so incredible for the learning I did from the attendings and residents there. My preceptors were amazing resources at all my sites and I am extremely grateful."
