Self reflective writing on their medical student career
I AM P.KHYATHI Of the 2018 batch presently an INTERN.
This is an online e-log book to discuss our patient's de-identified health data shared after taking his / her / guardian's signed informed consent. Here we discuss our individual patients' problems through a series of inputs from the available global online community of experts to solve those patients' clinical problems with collective current best evidence-based information.
This E blog also reflects my patient-centered online learning portfolio and your valuable input in the comment box is welcome.
