Last week Thursday on the orthopedic clinic was a slow but eye opening experience.

During the assessment, the MA also explained some of the medical procedures to the patient. She did a set of vitals on the patient, particular on new patient, such as blood pressure, height, and weight. We had a total of 15 patients during the morning.
