Family Medicine Clerkship Student Projects

The COVID-19 Pandemic has been particularly stressful for a wide array of patients, which has manifested in a number of ways. At the Brookfield Primary Care Clinic in Brookfield, CT, one of the ways that this was most prominent was through the change in the way patients exercised and ate. The impact this will have down the line is unknown, but this study aimed to assess the degree to which these changes have permeated the lives of patients.
