Outpatient Experience Program

Welcome to the Outpatient Experience (OPEX)! Over the next year, students will have an exciting but sometimes anxiety-provoking experience. This will likely be the first of many clinical experiences that will prepare students to interact with patients, physicians, and other medical professionals on the health care team. Students are eager to and excited about interacting with patients, but may feel that their knowledge is limited. This will, no doubt, transform over the year!

Sincerely,

Pam Vohra-Khullar, MD
Director, OPEX Curriculum

2019 Preceptor of the Year Byron Cotton, MD

Dr. Cotton has precepted in OPEX since its inception in 2007 and regularly taken on two students each year. He is working with a M3 student in Pediatrics this year. This student had such a great experience with him in OPEX that she asked if he would be her Peds preceptor and he agreed. His students have great things to say about him -

Dr. Cotton was a great mentor, and I can't thank him enough for his time and willingness to teach. 

He is a great teacher and has allowed me to take a greater role in his office as time has gone on.
