The basics of history taking, General physical examination and Specific systemic examination are also taught to the undergraduates which help them to form a solid base for medicine later. Familiarization with medical equipments like Sphygmomanometer, Stethoscope, Reflex hammer, Spirometer, ECG machine and Exercise stress testing is done in the department by exposing them in the first year itself. Hematological techniques are also taught which help them later in their clinical acumen.
Laboratory facilities:
Following laboratories are operating in the department.
