My goal is to become a primary doctor working with underserved communities, especially the Latino community. My work and volunteer experience and my professional goal are committed to provide service to the community with cultural competence, diversity and service orientation.

The curriculum followed in your program is intriguing, as it allows various clinical clerkships, sub-internships, and generous opportunities for electives, out-of state and global experiences. I am particularly interested in the clinical and global opportunities that your school offers. Sanford School of Medicine’s Scholarship Pathways Program is an invaluable program that provides students an avenue for gaining knowledge and research experience outside of the classroom. I really enjoyed learning more about the program during my interview with Dr. Zeigler. The Frontier and Rural Medicine program available to your students is a unique opportunity, offering insight and experiences in the full spectrum of rural medicine.
One of many reasons why I am drawn towards the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine is because of its rigorous curriculum and the school’s mission and values. Being immersed to a primary care clinic during the beginning of school, in opinion, is vital to the learn experience as it gives the students a hands-on experience. Furthermore, the school’s main focus on diversity appeals to my attention as it promotes learning from various students with different backgrounds. Diversity in the school setting corresponds to the real world since physicians will always encounter patients from all walks of life. Being a student who quickly learns from firsthand experiences and who can easily collaborate with other individuals, I believe I will contribute
I am interested in Howard University because it is an HBCU that encompass the themes of cultural diversity and education. Your commitment to scholars ensures me that at your school I will be right at home. Since I intend on on going down a medical path, I know that Howard University will provide me with best resources to follow my dreams. As a child I was always interested in the worlds around me and how things worked. As a result I participated in a Summer Enrichment Program located at Indiana University in Bloomington.
The science of pediatric medicine drew me to the field, but the culture, the hope that it inspires, and the humanism is what keeps me
The medical career camp gave me experiences I could have never imagined possible. Within just five days I observed three surgeries from the surgical floor, saw the inner workings of a neonatal intensive care and trauma units, learned about how to prepare hospitals for natural and manmade disasters, and practiced suturing on a two million dollar Da Vinci surgical robot. However, I think the most important thing that happened to me that week was the mentoring I received.
Through this program I hope to learn the fundamentals of community based research, how to advocate for health policy, a most importantly how to educate communities on health. I believe that is the most rewarding thing I can get out of this program. Having the ability, the power, to change someone’s life, by just giving him or her basic health care knowledge is so empowering. Knowing that I changed that life, that because of me hopefully their health will better instead of worsen. Through this program I hope to learn from the community, to learn their experiences, which will allow me to be even more conscious of the disparities they are forced to face, hence causing me to ponder “how can this issue be fixed?”, “what policy can be implemented”?.
I would like to join the medPREP program because ever since I was a child I always had an interest in the medical filed. In the future when I pursue college I would like to be as prepared as possible and I believe that med PREP will help do that for me. My personal area of interest is Dermatology. I have chosen to go into this medical field because I have various skin issues myself and would like to learn about these problems, as well as help others understand their skin better. At the end of my medPREP journey I would hope to achieve one main goal and that is to be prepared when go to medical school.
I am incredibly curious, capable, and passionate when it comes to the fields of science and medicine. I can only imagine myself operating in a profession where I get to make direct, tangible contributions to people and bettering their lives. My identity is first and foremost defined by my faith as a Seventh Day Adventist, and second by my family and community. The Loma Linda PA Program can allow me to become the embodiment of all that I value: a highly-trained medical professional that can use her faith and medical training to consistently serve their community with compassion and
Ever since grade school, I was passionate about working in the field of medicine, and science. I enjoyed anatomy, medical spelling and terminology, and reading about the healthcare industry. Because of my passion for healthcare, I decided to to attend Health Sciences High. There, I was given the best opportunities, such as, medical internships and college health courses. My plans and goals had turned me into a mature young adult.
I not only strive to apply scientific findings to treat my future patients, but also hope to gain inspiration from my patients to advance scientific knowledge. I believe the ideal way to apply my interests, and to best serve my community, is as a physician-scientist. The MD Anderson 1st Year Medical Student Program would offer me the opportunities
My first comprehensive exposure to the health care field was six years ago as a senior, during which time I participated in hospital-based schooling. This program allowed me to observe a multitude of different medical disciplines, with rotations in surgery, orthopedics, nutrition, dermatology, gastroenterology, neurology, administrative services, and many more. Three out of the five school days were dedicated solely to shadowing, and the other two were spent in the classroom learning various medical-centric studies. Once in college, I continued to shadow physicians whenever my class scheduled permitted. I participated in the 4-U Mentorship program, which paired me with a fourth-year medical student who was preparing to do his residency in general

Epidemiology also interests me since it is truly a combination of many different areas as it draws on statistics, clinical medicine, microbiology and many other fields. The internship with the summer institute with the UT School of Public Health would give me hands on experience in public health practice, specifically with opportunities in infectious diseases and epidemiology. I feel that my experiences and classes I have had throughout my time as a public health major will allow me to put my knowledge to use in the real world. I have listed the “Zika and Neglected Tropical Diseases” as my the preference for my first project, as it aligns exactly with my career goals and interests.
