The student will be exposed to the outpatient management of common cardiovascular disorders including coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, vascular disease, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation as well as to the work-up of common referrals in an ambulatory setting such as chest pain, shortness of breath, edema, palpitations, dizziness, syncope, abnormal ECG, and preoperative risk assessment.
