They learnt about the routines, responsibilities and challenges faced by doctors by attending ward rounds, clinics and operating sessions. Learning activities such as plastering, bone fracture fixation workshops, and bio- mechanics laboratory practical sessions allowed the students to experience the skills required of an orthopaedist.
