The Philadelphia Inquirer included a statement from Temple in its article about medical students conducting pelvic exams on anesthetized patients. Temple provides patients with a consent form that explains medical students may participate in their care during surgeries, including a pelvic exam for educational purposes. Students must confirm with their attending that an anesthetized patient has consented.
Weather Alert: A major winter storm is likely to impact the Philadelphia region this weekend into Monday. Temple Health remains open, though some appointments or services may be adjusted. Patients will be contacted directly if their visit is affected. Please check TempleHealth.org for updates and monitor myTempleHealth for changes to scheduled appointments.
