Worked in a busy Family Medicine clinic seeing 20-25 patients a day. I saw full spectrum family medicine patients, though my practice largely became focused on women and children's care. Procedures included suturing, biopsies, fracture care, long-acting contraceptive placement, endometrial biopsies. I also practiced Obstetrics and delivered approximately 120-150 babies per year.
