No, teaching hospitals (attached to Medical school or not)has private, and owned physicians.
The medical students, residents or fellows, have nothing to do with priority of appointments. They get experience when you enter the picture, right behind the attending.
The only time students have some control of appointments is at cadaver lab, and none of the cadavers have an issue with long waits
