St. George’s University School of Medicine (SGUSOM) has provided high-quality clinical education since 1977. More than 80 formally affiliated teaching hospitals in the US and the UK provide clinical training during the clinical years.
One of the unique opportunities available to students at SGUSOM is the ability to experience a wide range of patients, hospital systems, and national health systems. Students have the option to complete clerkships in the US, UK, and Grenada. During the senior year, students may complete rotations not only at affiliated hospitals, but also at out-of-network training hospitals and international sites, including Canada and other locations worldwide.
SGU has developed “clinical centers” for students who prefer to complete all or most of their clinical training in one area. These are affiliated teaching hospitals, or groups of affiliated teaching hospitals, that offer all clerkships, sub-internships and electives. Major affiliated hospitals provide some third- and fourth-year rotation requirements.
Appendix A provides information about all clinical centers, major affiliated hospitals, and limited affiliated hospitals in the US and UK. Clinical training occurs exclusively at sites participating in postgraduate training programs. Many of SGU's affiliated hospitals and clinical centers also train medical students from UK and US medical schools.
