End of an Internship

without comments

And there you have it, the first of my anaplastology tools – one spatula, one #7, and one dappen dish for work with acrylic.  Last Friday marked my last day as an intern in Dallas.  As a parting gift I was given these tools, along with a couple other fun odds and ends.

My time with the Medical Arts Prosthetics Clinic has been really great.  I feel like I’ve learned so much.  And I got to work with a patient from their initial consultation on through the creation of a prosthesis, and onto delivery.  I had done all of those steps before, but never all towards one prosthesis, not from the point of an initial consultation anyways.  I got to do a lot of things with this internship, but seeing that patient through was really great.  And I know that this is what I want to do.

Here is a photo of the lot of us out at the clinic.  Listing left to right, that’s Greg Gion, Allison Vest, Colette Shrader, Sky Miranda, and me, Sara Egner.

And now it’s on to finishing up my project research, graduating, and making a career for myself.  Wish me luck!  Or better yet, send me job offers!  I’m about to be on the market!
