Health Outreach Program (HOP) Physician Volunteers Needed
Calling all physicians! Drexel Med’s Health Outreach Program (HOP) is looking for new physicians to volunteer in our clinics. These clinics are student-run and designed to support the underserved population in and around Philadelphia. They also serve to provide students with a safe environment to practice interviewing and case presentation skills. There are three clinics that rely on physician support in order to operate:
- Eliza Shirley, Wednesdays, 6:30–8:30 p.m. — serves women and children
- SalVal clinic, Tuesdays, 7–10 p.m. — serves mostly veterans
- Streetside clinic, Fridays, 12–4:30 p.m. ― serves the impoverished in the Kensington neighborhood of Philly. Also functions as a needle exchange.
Details:
- Service at HOP is completely voluntary.
- The clinic schedule for the month is sent out and physicians can simply sign up for dates that fit their schedule.
- Physicians can sign up as often or as little as they please.
- At clinic, students will conduct the interview of patients and present the case to the physician. The physician will then take over the care of the patient and provide feedback to students on their interviewing and case presenting proficiency.
We have a dedicated team of physicians with a passion for teaching and service. If being a part of this incredible team interests you, please contact Vandan Patel at vsp35@drexel.edu or Sara Seyed at ss5289@drexel.edu.

Discount for Drexel Authors
Since 2012, Drexel University Libraries has maintained a membership in BioMed Central. BMC is a publisher of open-access journals heavily focused on the life sciences, clinical medicine, science and technology. Over 180 of BMC's journals are peer-reviewed and ranked by Thomson Reuters in the Journal Citation Report. Open-access journals cover their costs through the collection of article-processing charges that authors pay upon article acceptance. Drexel's BMC membership offers Drexel authors discounted processing charges for articles accepted for BMC titles. Since 2010, Drexel authors have published more than 120 papers in peer-reviewed BMC journals. BMC Genomics, BMC Bioinformatics, and BMC Public Health have been the most popular for Drexel authors.
