What do you like about HMSS?

 My favorite part of HMSS is the sense of community that we all have. We're all students with the same goals, taking the same classes, with the same professors, and experiencing the same struggles, so everybody is really on the same page and ready to help one another out. HMSS is also great because of all the guidance/advising you receive either from your mentor or Dr. Foster and Dr. Speights.

 

Why do you want to go into medicine?

I want to go into medicine so I can make a positive impact on the lives around me. Being there for someone, and helping them feel better in their time of need is something I think is really special. Even the simple things like having fun conversations with patients to get to know them interests me and is something I want to do everyday.
