Heather Walker, MD, Emergency Medical Physician
Dr. Walker will explain the training, daily expectations, and duties of an Emergency Department physician and will also share some interesting encounters she has experienced in the ED. Her discussion will cover common patient situations and diagnoses, such as cardiac arrest, as well as procedures performed in the ED. Her session will feature a demonstration of suturing techniques, followed by hands-on practice where students will work directly with instructors to try their suturing skills on fruit. This promises to be a unique learning experience for high school students who are interested in a medical career.
