Healthcare Students visit the Podiatrist Office

By: Anthony Dileva - Adjunct Faculty

On February 13, 2014, I took my HLTH-150-Medical Law and Ethics students to Dr. Bruce Levin's office (my podiatrist) in San Pedro. On this field trip, the students were given the opportunity to observe Dr. Levin remove an ingrown toenail from a patient, watch him treat another patient for plantar fasciitis, observe laser therapy, and observe a patient undergo an acupuncture treatment. The students also spoke with Dr. Levin, his office staff, the therapists, and Dr. Roya (Acupuncturist) and ask them questions. This field trip was a great learning tool for the students because they got the chance to see what doctors and medical assistance do on a regular basis.
