They have been doing bedside ultrasound the longest and have a great time teaching it. The courses I loved were the ER course at Harvard Medical School, given by Vicki Noble, The Yale University Puerto Rico course, because the students were so diverse and it was fun to go to Puerto Rico and surprisingly inexpensive, and Mike Mallin and Matt Dawson's Kentucky course. I hear that UC San Francisco does excellent courses, but I haven't gone to any. There is a lot you can do on line, but it is best to start with one or two hands on courses.Janice Boughtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02321947802871503562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1350181109033523476.post-82545035987322493572014-09-19T18:44:30.571-07:002014-09-19T18:44:30.571-07:00I know this is a bit off topic, however, I was won...I know this is a bit off topic, however, I was wondering if you could point to some good short courses for U/S learning. preferably ones that are suitable for primary care/er mixed practice model.Moiz Khannoreply@blogger.com
