| Welcome to the site
and my name is Joe Gilboy the individual who
leads the review. I am a graduated of the
Duke University PA Program in 1984 and then went
on to complete the ER PA Residency Program at USC LA County Hospital in Los Angeles,
California. I have been
working in ER medicine for over 23 years and
have also spoken at the AAPA and CAPA conferences over the
last 15 years.
I have been giving a board review program for over
the last 15 years and it has become a very
successful review. It originated back at USC
in 1991 along with two of my greatest mentors Les Howard and Rosie McCann.
We began a program for the graduating seniors
and after leaving in 1992 I started my own and it
has grown over the years. I give it at several
schools and also at some out of state programs.
I believe in the "Old School"
technique of teaching which is you must interact
with students for them to learn and you must also
engage them to think and understand concepts. I
have also learned from experience that it is
vital to to spread the large amount of information over time. It is too much information to
go over in a weekend class and a computer will not
answer a question you may have and most importantly
humans learn from other humans not machines.
View getting ready for the boards as a long journey
into the world of medicine and view me as your
GPS navigator. I will get you where you need to
be in a timely manner and prevent any wrong turns
or detours along the way.
