Teaching the Physical Exam: Best Practice

Welcome to Curbsiders Teach, our Curbsiders family podcast on teaching in medical education. We're excited to recap one of our favorite episodes from Curbsiders Teach Season 2, Teaching a Physical Exam with Dr André Mansoor. This was such a great one. Dr Mansoor is clearly passionate about the topic and shared some great examples of just how powerful the physical exam can be. We love to rely on technology in medicine, but sometimes the exam can be even more powerful to save patients' time and get to the right diagnosis. Showing our learners how valuable the exam can be is really key. As educators, we need to debunk the myth that physical examination is not helpful. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/982500
