How it works
Assess the patient
Interview a virtual patient powered by AI. Gather history, work through their concerns and form your clinical impression, exactly the way you would in clinic.
Present to your preceptor
Share your assessment and management plan with an expert preceptor built into the module. Each preceptor is designed by clinicians who have trained hundreds of learners in this exact therapeutic area.
Get expert feedback
Receive structured, personalized feedback on your reasoning and communication. Written by subject-matter experts, not generated by AI.
This isn't a chatbot. Each Expert Clinic replicates the structure of a real clinical rotation (assessment, preceptor consultation and feedback) in a format you can complete on your own time, from anywhere.
"Expert" is a selection criterion, not a marketing word
Every Expert Clinic at Waterloo Pharmacy is designed and feedback-authored by clinicians with documented expertise in both clinical practice and clinical education. We look for years of high-volume practice, peer-reviewed publications, award-recognized teaching and a track record of training learners in the therapeutic area. We recruit the best preceptors in their field.
Available modules
Manage a virtual anticoagulation clinic under expert supervision: interpret INRs, adjust warfarin dosing, navigate drug and disease interactions, manage bleeding and thrombotic risk and counsel patients on safe use, presenting each case to your preceptor for structured feedback.
The Anticoagulation Clinic is also known as MOAT (Management of Oral Anticoagulation Therapy).
Clinic supervisor: Jeff Nagge, PharmD, ACPR, Clinical Associate Professor, University of Waterloo School of Pharmacy.
Run a virtual hypertension clinic under expert supervision: assess cardiovascular risk, select and titrate antihypertensive therapy across varied patient profiles and counsel patients on lifestyle and adherence, presenting each case to your preceptor for structured feedback.
Clinic supervisors: Jeff Nagge, PharmD, ACPR, and Khrystine Waked, PharmD, ACPR, Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor, University of Waterloo School of Pharmacy.
Deliver culturally safe care to Indigenous patients in a virtual clinic developed with Indigenous partners: navigate each encounter with attention to historical and cultural context, build trust through respectful communication and adapt assessment and care planning to the patient in front of you, discussing your approach with your preceptor for feedback.
Clinic supervisors: Savannah Sloat (Associate Director, Science Indigenous Initiatives, University of Waterloo), and Cassandra McLelland, PharmD, ACPR (Vice-Chair, Indigenous Pharmacy Professionals of Canada). Supported by the University of Waterloo Teaching Innovation Incubator (TII).
The Evidence
Over 400 practitioners have completed the Anticoagulation Clinic. Two peer-reviewed studies support the model:
About the Expert Clinics
Expert Clinics at Waterloo Pharmacy grew out of a question: how can we use AI to give clinicians the kind of supervised, repeatable clinical practice that builds real competence, without the geographic, scheduling and preceptor constraints that limit traditional clinical rotations?
Each clinic is designed and feedback-authored by clinicians with deep expertise in clinical teaching and the therapeutic area. AI brings the patient and preceptor encounters to life on simulation infrastructure built in partnership with Ametros Learning. Human experts decide what the learner should take away from each encounter.
