Summary
In medical school at Université de Sherbrooke, we are often encouraged to think and reflect on clinical life experiences, medical ethics, and the different cultural and psychological aspects that play into the medical profession. Lost in the expanse of the medical clinic, I decided to ask a nurse for directions. With a roll of her eyes and a quick glance at my medical student ID badge, she led me to a whiteboard identifying the supervisor's clinic rooms for the day.
