We do not ask our preceptor to sign up far in advance; therefore allowing you to sign up as your schedule permits. We ask our preceptors to commit to 2 to 4 Saturdays a year, but we understand this is sometimes difficult in the busy life of a doctor and we appreciate any days you can volunteer.
Here are few Important Notes for the Saturdays you Sign up for:
+ |
|
Commit to the Saturdays you sign up for. If you are unable to make your Saturday or commit to your entire shift for any reason, please let us know as early soon as possible, and preferably at least 5 days before your Saturday. |

|
Please Arrive on time (or Earlier) to help the Clinic Flow Smoothly

If you sign up for a half shift, please stop taking cases One Hour before you need to leave to assure you can leave at your scheduled time.

|
Please do not hesitate to sign up for an afternoon shift (or full shift). We are usually finished well before 4pm, and we generally have a shortage of preceptors in the afternoon and could use your help for these times.
