The website every medical educator should know about

Sometimes I find websites and think "Oh my, everyone should know about this." Clinical cases and images is one of those websites. http://clinicalcases.blogspot.com/

"We all know that there is a big difference between what we read in the books and what we see in our clinical practice every day. Somehow, the patients are different from their disease description in the textbooks. As one experienced physician put it succinctly: "his CHF did not read the book." How to bridge this gap between theory and practice? By creating a case-based curriculum of clinical medicine. See what the real medicine looks like.

This curriculum was started by physicians at the Cleveland Clinic and the Case Western Reserve University (St. Vincent/St. Luke) Internal Medicine Residency Program for the purpose of medical education."

I tried signing in with Typekey but it said something was wrong with your configuration.

I think your blog would be an interesting addition to the Saskblogs Aggregator. If you'd like to join other Saskatchewan bloggers, give Lance an email at his site http://saskblogs.catprint.ca
