Why do you want to go into medicine?

I had the privilege of being introduced to the field of medicine by working for a primary care physician’s private practice in my small town. I was lucky to have experienced the joy of contributing to a clinic’s efficiency in delivering quality patient care to my local community. My experience there truly solidified and reaffirmed the ambition I have to pursue medicine.
