About Us
Our mission is to supplement preclinical training by providing medical students with a consistent, supportive, and inclusive environment to develop critical procedural skills relevant to all medical students and orient themselves to the operating room prior to clerkships. We aim to: Offer regular, hands-on opportunities to practice surgical skills and sterile techniques in a structured, low-pressure setting, enhancing learning beyond one-time events. Familiarize medical students with the operating room setting, equipping them to contribute meaningfully as part of the OR team during clinical rotations. Reduce barriers to learning surgical skills by offering accessible education, fostering a supportive community, and providing suturing materials for those who face financial or logistical obstacles. By enhancing access to consistent surgical skill development, we strive to empower all students to feel prepared and confident in pursuing surgical specialties.
