Your time to shine!

Clinical Interview Preparation

This runs about 1 hour and is in place so that in the event of any unexpected situation, Portrait can demonstrate to anyone that you are the knowledgeable, talented provider we believe you to be.

During the Clinical Interview, Dr. Blake or another Clinical Director will have questions on the following topics:

1. Patient selection / candidacy for treatment
2. Product selection
3. Consent for services and review of what could “go wrong.”
4. Expected and unexpected outcomes

We likely will not cover all of the cases — this is a structured but loose process. Think of the Clinical Director and/or Dr. Blake as trainees who need to understand not just what you are doing but why you are doing it.

If you have not already done so, please review THIS LINK to see what competencies will be addressed during your clinical interview.

The following cases are for your consideration before your upcoming discussion with your assigned Clinical Director.
