Mr Stephen Lindsay, a Urological Surgeon in Bendigo, recently held a skills session for the University of Melbourne final year students, “Surviving Urology 101”. Mr Lindsay enlisted Senior Lecturer in Clinical Skills, Adele Callaghan, to help in developing a scenario on Renal Colic using the new Bendigo Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre (CSSC) facilities. Mr Lindsay praised the enormous amount of preparation that Adele did to ensure that the session was highly successful.

“I have been teaching Medical undergraduates since 1990 and I think I usually do a reasonable job. But I have never had students more energised and engaged than the group on Thursday. The quality of the experience for the students (and me!) in the simulation centre is unbelievable, and Adele ran the session beautifully. We had a lot of fun, and I think I learned at least as much as the students!” praised Mr Lindsay and he looks forward to using the CSSC again for his “boring old Urology tutorials”.
