Educational Opportunities

Opportunities for Students and Residents

The UCSF Pain Management Center welcomes any resident or medical student who would like to rotate through the clinic. Students and residents need not be from UCSF. In such cases, coordination with the Department of Anesthesia is required for credentialing.

Rotations generally last a minimum of 4 weeks. They entail working closely with the UCSF Pain Management anesthesia and neurology faculty. Opportunities also exist for time spent with the UCSF Pain Management psychology and physical therapy faculty.


Other Educational Opportunities

Observational preceptorships of varying lengths are also available. Visiting physicians, scientists, physician's assistants, physical therapists, pharmaceutical representatives, and others have joined us in this capacity. No direct patient care is permitted, and no special credentialing is required from the Department of Anesthesia.
