Student Review
"I cannot say enough about this site. Dr. Pirotte has changed the way I will practice. This is a wonderful opportunity for anyone interested in running a successful private practice. Mondays are spent doing patient care. Tuesday mornings you will participate in staff meetings reviewing practice goals, finances, suggesting ideas to improve the practice, etc. Tuesday afternoons are primary care. Wednesday mornings you will go with the resident to a rehab hospital to observe neurological examinations on patients who have suffered traumatic brain injuries, strokes, etc. Wednesday afternoons you will be doing vision therapy. Thursday mornings are primary care, and afternoons VT. Fridays are half days, and you will discuss with Dr. Pirotte and the resident interesting cases from the week, and will go over practice management, accounting, etc."
