The Oncology and Outpatient Care Clinic at Erie Shores HealthCare opened in Leamington, Ont. on Sept. 13, 2023. (Sanjay Maru/CTV News Windsor) Students from Western University's Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry have begun their learning at Erie Shores HealthCare (ESHC) for Discovery Week. First-year medical students at Western are given the opportunity to have a one-week placement in healthcare settings across the province, getting an immersive learning experience. 'Discovery Week is an invaluable experience for both medical students and our community,' said Dr. Kenneth Ogah, chief of staff at ESHC. 'By participating in hands-on learning within a rural setting, students see the real impact they can have on patients' lives. We hope this week inspires them to consider practicing in communities like Essex County in the future.' Discovery week began Monday, continuing until June 6. 'We are incredibly grateful for the continued collaboration with partners who welcome our medical students into their communities and provide them with unparallelled first-hand experiences,' said Dr. Victor Ng, assistant dean of distributed education at Schulich Medicine and Dentistry. 'Together, we're training and inspiring a cohort of physicians who are eager and prepared to practice in small and mid-sized communities across Ontario.'
