Learning how to throw stitches is a rite of passage in medical school. If you've ever watched Grey's Anatomy and thought "I can do that," then this class is for you.
In this hands-on course, we'll cover the different types of suture material, how to handle a needle driver like a pro, and basics of knot-tying. In the second half, you'll practice your new craft using medical-grade materials on simulated skin (bananas!). Release your inner surgeon.
