Clinical Rotations and Transportation
Medical Students are assigned to clerkships and clinical rotations in our various clinical partners around the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. On the Family Medicine rotation, some students are assigned to more distant clinical sites in Austin, Waco, Tyler, and Jacksboro. Please note that students are responsible for transportation to and from these varied sites. Having a vehicle is ideal as public transportation is not always available based on the time of day various rotations begin and end.
