I don't think med students see pt's. Im not sure about that. But residents are finished med school and they are doing residencys in different specialties to decide what they want to specialize in. Fellows have already decided what they want to specialize in and they work in that area to learn more. Attendings are instructors for the med school and work fulltime in the hospital.
